What do you think about many American schools no longer teaching cursive? To me it just seems like a further degradation of zoomie/gen alpha education. I write cursive every single day as an artist and handwriting is effectively a form of art practice that I'm sure affects your brain in a positive way every time you do it but young people are just only engaging with machines in general. Why write when you can type? Why cook when you can order DoorDash? They don't do anything more complex with their hands than select things on a screen and this probably makes you partially retarded.

In Russia they literally *only* write in cursive and handwriting block letters for day-to-day tasks doesn't happen. We are getting cucked by our own language.
