i was thinking about making a post about the importance of learning cursive handwriting (historical documents, neurological benefits) etc. but then i remembered how i learned cursive by my teachers guiding my hand. i realized that this is basically off limits in the U.S and this would be seen as very scandalous for a teacher to do but in most of the world its such a normal, innocent act for kids to learn how to write. a low touch culture literally kills a people so insidiously.

    I have an Obsidian journal where I type out my thoughts straight off the dome as they come to me. I will return to ideas I had months ago and add to them, have a reoccurring dream and add to that, etc. This is encrypted and backed up so I won’t lose it in case of a flood or anything. There’s other ways to organize your ideas and reflect on your thoughts.
