        My go-to recommendation is a TWSBI Eco T: ~$30, huge ink capacity, a triangular grip to help you write properly, and mine has lasted me four years so far with no sign of damage. Lamy Safaris or Pilot MRs are other common recommendations for starter pens. My favorite black ink is X-Feather cause it'll work on even the shittiest of paper, but if you're left handed and smudge easily I'd go with something quick drying like Heart of Darkness. Goulet Pens is the shop I use. There's some things to learn about the pens, but most of all is to write with as little pressure as possible. They'll write with the weight of the pen alone usually, which is great for preventing writing fatigue, but pressing too hard might damage the nib.

            Anytime! I love them: I've spent way too much on them, and I even turn fountain pens on a lathe. But I write a ton of notes for almost everything, so it seems kinda worth it.

    0.5mm 2B, the people's leader of leads. Silky smooth, slight variations in line thickness, still functionally thin.

    Life's too hard not to use a softy.

    Plastic nub on glass screen with no friction like all the cool kids with school sanctioned tablets and nerds that got suckered into digital note taking gang

    I need my light lines of 0.5 HB

    0.7 2B is good for drawing but smudges easy.

    Which one is dark as hell and you can also apply a lot of pressure?
