If head wraps/scarves count, then that.

Told my friend that she was being a terf when she started saying terf shit.

Thank you for the resource! That’s wild!!!

He got caught selling crack to high schoolers

I’m sorry, he did what?

Games: Nier Automata, Portal, and Ghost of Tsushima

Movies: Prince of Egypt, Confessions and The Prestige

Music: “Speak for Yourself” album, “Talent for Love” (Guilty pleasure), and, most musicals that I like (I love stumbling upon one I enjoy).

Capybara

This movie is hilarious. Never fails to make me smile.

I’m not sure what system you’re on, but mine does do that. Not all the way down so they’re touching but it goes from a little above my thumb when at the bottom, to my thumb being around the middle of the screen with the cursor at the top of my phone display.

Edit: I think if you dig around in the settings you can change the distance. But it’s probably behind the paywall.

Downloaded and enjoyed. Thanks for the recommendation.

Root Letter. They said it was like Ace Attorney. It was not like Ace Attorney at all! 🤬

I know it’s dumb, but cellphones. They went from bricks to pretty much super computers. I’m amazed at the stuff I can do on my phone. Music, games, drawing, texting, phone, video call, camera, recorder, ebook, audio book reader, etc.

Headphones. I’m not an audiophile so I’m sure there are varying qualities, but there are so many different headphones now, almost all Bluetooth. Most are pretty good because the base standard seems higher overall. I remember getting cheap headphones and having then sound awful. Now I buy cheap headphones and it’s really not that bad. And now there noise canceling? Like magic. Hell, getting my first Bluetooth headset made me feel like I had made it (I in fact did not make it, they just became lower in price).

Video games. There are a llllooootttttt of issues with the gaming industry, but the variety, accessibility, and quality is nuts. My first console was a my grandma’s SNES. My first handheld device was a Gameboy. Not game boy color, just game boy. I’ve watched my grandma and I go from black and white / basic graphics, to being able to see the peach fuzz on someone’s face. I was playing a game and felt the rain from the vibration in my controller. I thought VR was something I might be able to see towards the end of my lifetime, not pretty much at the start of it. I also think how easy it is to connect and play with people is amazing. I can play with my friend across the country, and speak with her, and share my screen, and have her play like she was on the couch with me.

Not often I think, unless you read a lot of historical documents/letters. But even a lot of those are transcribed these days. So likely only people working with doctors (and even then, probably just specific medications). Outside of the data entry job, I don’t think it’s come up in my life outside of school.

That’s true. But the chart was more like, “this is what cursive looks like” sort of thing. Like, some people couldn’t recognize a curve “G” or other “different” letters. But I’ve certainly seen some cursive that might as well have been an alien language 🤣

I agree that it takes practice, but I wasn’t aware (until that job) that most people learned how to write their name only. I had to learn it when I was in 2nd or 3rd, then I kept it up because note taking was faster. But I don’t think it’s stopping anyone from doing anything unless you’re going through hand written docs all the time. Just surprised me at the time.

S. S. Niggress (still going strong)

All the “middrif/glasses/office/has limbs-moe” communities. All the porn, furry, and celebrity stuff. Also Star Trek and Linux. Not because they were bad, but I felt like that was all I was ever seeing. Also the sports/team communities.

When I worked data entry, there was a chart for cursive as people couldn’t understand cursive writing, and these were adults. I think this may check out (not because they’re lacking, but because they probably weren’t taught).

When I started school.

A friend from high school reached out to meet up because she was going to her honeymoon in Japan while I was there. I hadn’t seen her in 5 or so years because we lived across the country from each other, I didn’t even know she had gotten married in the first place. Husband was weird, but kind, and she seemed happy.
