Dutifully updating my phone for the nasty security problem. Idly noticing that the "hello" messages written across the screen, despite resulting in the hand visually, don't adhere precisely to English stroke direction. Curious how they were created, and whether the Korean, Arabic, &c messages are also modified...

Got pulled over by a cop in Texas because he ran our plate and couldn't find our vehicle. He came back with a warning citation for having an obscured license plate that made it look like we're from Louisiana.

We're... pretty sure he just made a mistake reading cursive and made up a violation to cover for it.

@sarae makes an excellent point to consider before squandering your (increasingly precious) skills:
Shouldn't the government PAY for these services?
Of course, the answer is yes; it's yet another thing the government should pay for but leaves to private citizens.

@wigglytuffitout @sarae I frequently deal with these cursive issues in translating records from the 1870s through the end of . The lines occasionally placed over and under the т and ш respectively help, but are not used consistently, even in the same document. The one that always throws me, though, is the ж. I have gotten used to seeing the yat since it only shows up in a few words and I’ve learned to look for it.

Lecce is an idiot and teaching writing is stupid.

Maybe we should teach buggy whip making and rotary phone dialing while we're at it?

I really want to work on my cursive writing - something I haven't used for years and years. I'm not aiming for mind blowing calligraphy, but I want to maintain something both attractive and readable, so I can shift to writing my letters from print.

When I decided to pursue this, uh, hobby, I needed something I could use as practic: a piece long and varied enough to help me regain familiarity with the letters, and something I wouldn't grow tired of as I shift shapes here and there. I needed something I could write over and over again to study consistency and form. I needed something not so long as to exhaust me every time I sat down to practice. I needed...
