The mechanical action, not the content, is what’s important. So you want something you’ll be able to stay focused on (and not be bored by), but other than that it’s not a huge deal.

Actually this could be a good opportunity. If there’s something you want to learn really well—potentially even memorize parts of—writing it over and over is a good chance to do so.

That’s a cue. A coup is a liquid dish, usually hot and savory, sometimes with chunks of meat, vegetables, and/or pasta.

Depending on where you’re going, you may not need to worry about it much. When I was in postsecondary education, there wasn’t much handwriting required. And I graduated 13 years ago; certainly things have gone more online since then. You might want to check with a current student in your field of study at your university and see what the handwriting requirements are. Make sure to ask whether cursive is a dealbreaker.

If it is something you’re going to need to work on, there’s really no getting around it: you’re going to need to practice. Cursive or print, you’re going to need to practice it. Get a big notebook, and something to write (hopefully something you’re actually interested in), and just start writing. Transcribe a TV show as you’re watching it. Copy a book line-for-line. You get good at the things you do a lot, and so you’re going to have to write a lot.

Also, I would recommend slowing down. My handwriting is great when I’m writing slowly but can be terrible when I speed up if I don’t pay attention. Slow down to start; if it’s still not legible, slow down even more. Make sure you aren’t practicing your existing bad habits. Then, as you practice, be deliberate: focus on each individual letterform, and as you become more comfortable writing legible letters, try to pick up the pace.

There are other things that you might find help you out: try practicing on wide-ruled paper, rather than college-ruled, for instance. Try a pencil or pen which moves more roughly across the page, for more tactile response. Make sure your pen or pencil is making strong, clear marks so that it’s obvious what legibility issues are your hand (and not just a bad implement).

You can change your writing style; I have, on a couple of occasions. It just takes practice.

Also Mozilla.

Bro, obviously I have no idea what you’re talking about. So either give me a link or shut up in an acknowledgement that you’re trying to get me to admit something and you actually have no argument.

Yeah, I have been. That’s why I’m saying what I’m saying.

Do you think I’m someone else?

How can I have contradicted myself when I haven’t made a single assertion? I’ve literally only been asking you to explain your statement.

Prove…anything, honestly. Prove that I called anyone bad (I didn’t, in any comment). Prove that there are mainstream leftists currently advocating for mass murder. Prove that you’re not just making up everything you’re saying based on “feels.” Grow up? I’m not the one pretending that my opinions are more important than the facts.

Prove it. But first, answer my question. Trying to divert the conversation won’t disguise the fact that you’re making false equivalences based upon nothing.

Indeed, but that’s step two after the other person realizes that they’re just saying “lol boths sidez samesies” with no basis for that opinion except enlightened centrism. (So never)

Who said that? I asked you to explain your position. I never said anyone was bad.

Non sequiturs are not answers to the question I asked. Biden is not left of Bernie or AOC.

Ok, two authoritarian leaders the modern left finds pretty abhorrent and regularly repudiates. You might as well say that Lincoln represents the modern right if you’re going that way.

You know what I meant. A modern, mainstream leftist—think Bernie or AOC, or leftwards—calling for mass murder or policies that would plainly result in mass murder.

Yep, I’m here. My nine-year-old is writing a wizard spellbook while the seven-, four-, and two-year-old play outside. Let’s do a weekly discussion post, sounds fun.

Show me any mainstream proof of your characterization of the far left viewpoint. At all.

You’re welcome, happy to do it! Yeah, unless you’re starting a campaign very soon and can’t wait, I’d recommend waiting for Starfinder 2e. In fact, even if you are starting soon, you can grab the playtest documents and see if they’ve got enough content to satisfy your needs right now, backfilling with PF2e rules where the playtest is incomplete.

Whew. Good point. And sobering.

When will Jim Jones’ supporters wake up? Cults do extensive mental rewiring to people’s brains. Their minds literally cannot conceive of their leader doing anything evil anymore.

No, the question isn’t when his supporters will wake up, it’s when will the people who still think he’s “bad, but the lesser of two evils” wake up?

Well yeah, the quality of the code isn’t the problem, it’s just the fact that my Git username is my real name (I use it for work), so I don’t know whether I want to associate it with my Lemmy account.

Actually, it may not matter. I bet there are ways that people could connect the dots. Let me think on it a bit more.

Ok, I was on the “old.” skin; let’s try the standard skin.

Nope, it doesn’t work on the standard skin, either.
