First thing, I'm buying the finest fineliner I can, go for 4-6 columns on the page.

Then I'm writing in billionaires, one a week, after making them cosign a suicide note that the deaths will stop once wealth distribution flattens the fuck out, there's a full UBI everywhere and fossil fuels are history.

Dont go too thin on the pen tip. A slightly thicker pen line but one that doesnt skip or fail is better than slightly thinner lines due to wasting space on ruining what you are writing. This depends on how the death note page works specifically but having to write it down all at once might be a necessary part of how it would work.

The thinnest you will find will likely be the gel ink Signo 0.18mm tipped pens, they are notorious for skipping/failing and being basically useless once they start doing that, so buy MANY pens if you can find them. I believe they are discontinued so you may have to bribe people to part with them.

There are some really good pens in the .25 to .38

Muji pens ive seen recommended multiple times.

Ive used 0.38 purple pentel pens, the tip is quite sharp and has cut through paper if you go too fast or too hard. You said fineliner so a marker style tip may prevent that danger, though i dont think you can get those in extremely small tip sizes

Former Death Note nerd here, this isn't an issue, there are several points where names are written out letter by letter or left unfinished to complete later

Nerds are awesome, thank you

Just because the billionaires are dead doesn't mean their wealth automatically distributes through the population though. Their kids/spouses get it first and who knows what their intentions are going to be.

Inheritees are probably going to feel disincentivized to hold on to anywhere close to a billion dollars for themselves, I'd imagine, so there's that at least

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

If billionaires are literally dropping by the week, I think billionaires would actually be forced to do something about it, i.e. not be billionaires anymore or face the mystery "Billionaire Heart Attack" that's been spreading.

Or get a special law passed that allows them to conceal their identity.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't think it'd be easy to hide your identity unless its already non-public. Even just a single photo could locate someone nowadays

[–] Jarix 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Not now, it would become that way though if this went on long enough

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

But are they living alone in a bunker or something, someone knows who they are and they are gonna get caught 99/100 times.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (2 children)

You'll have a tough time fitting the details of each suicide onto one page, for more than a few dozen folks.
