write in cursive, never lift the pen from the paper, and let your thoughts flow freely from your hand. You might not be able to read it all back, but you’ll be able to gain a general idea. Plus all the greats did it. It’ll also give your family and friends some interesting stuff to sift through when you croak. 💀
Fun fact: Leonardo Da Vinci wrote in a mirrored cursive style, and from the right to left, so that only he could decipher what it said when needed.

Slows you down to think about what you're communicating. Improves hand strength. Is quite romantic imo. Keeps alive a slowly fading art form. I keep a notebook that only gets cursive text, and I use cursive to write all my notes to friends and lovers. Imbues words with a kind of magical human intention that I definitely feel. As per my example, even cool if you do it messy.

but not having the wherewithal to do it correctly. also sometimes i get bored (distracted?) and hold my writing instrument in silly ways just to see how my writing turns out. anyways, handwriting is a lost art form and i find it to be very interesting and an intimate way to learn about someone

It’s starting to happen all the time to the point where we can’t even avoid each other… but I’m not complaining.
Always wanted life to kind of feel like I was in a sitcom friend group
