I've followed the #fountainPens hashtag for years as a bit of a pen-head, but as I sit here using my nice Staedtler 1.3mm mech pencil, I'm wondering where are all my pencil homies?
Is there a mechanical pencil, or maybe graphite-enthusiast, hashtag I'm missing? Do we need one?
Excuse the inappropriately-excessive number of tags – trying a few to see what pops up or gathers compadres.

This is my Staedtler 1.3mm Triangular-grip pencil by the way. It's nice having a beefier lead size if you're like me and snap the 0.7mm leads all the time.
Okay a bit of a repeat from last summer, but I got a nice Kaweco 5.6mm in August.
Very pleasant to use, and does dual duty in my workshop and at my desk.
It is funny when someone try to write with the automatic pencil with a tungsten carbide tip I use to mark the metal.
I say them "Oh, it's empty again! Let me recharge it!", then I swiftly replace the tungsten with a lead: "Here, now it works" 😄
