I spontaneously starting writing in cursive in my 8th grade math class one day and never turned back. I can write extremely fast, having written in cursive exclusively for 15 years. I have no idea how quickly I wrote when I started off, but

For a second I thought you were saying the UK was going full mormon for kids but then I clicked the articles and realized it was just energy drinks specifically (which imo isn't a terrible idea). I was gonna say, tho, if they were gonn

Late 20s woman, started playing violin when I was 4, genetically predisposed. I had that SAME moment of shock and panic when I practiced with my sister before we played for my cousin's wedding a year ago. It was wild, the best way I ca

The problem with hurricanes is USUALLY storm surge, but Hurricane Michael hit Mexico Beach with 150 mph sustained winds, effectively making it a very large EF3 tornado. NOAA predicted that wind would be the biggest problem, and if you watch

I have my own little forest. I do get personal enjoyment out of it everyday. But I also feel an enormous obligation to protect it as precious habitat for the critters who live there as their habitat all around my woods slowly shrinks and th

Do you have any idea how many women who go into STEM ultimately leave due to harassment and discrimination? If the harassment I faced had happened early on in my physics degree rather than when I was almost done, I absolutely would have lef

So... braces? It's cheaper just to pull them. You really have to if you're someone like me whose mouth was too small for them to even come in. My wisdom tooth extraction was a shit show for that reason, but I've had all my 12

I'm schizotypal, which is basically schizophrenia lite... pretty sure there's nothing "behavioral" about my recurring auditory hallucinations of a brass band playing nonsense music.

If anywhere in the world has figured out how to dress for heat and humidity, it's the Indian subcontinent, and all I'm saying is the sari involves bare midriff for a reason. I live in the southeast and spend a lot of time outside.

I'm pretty sure the role of feminism in all this is, "women can do whatever the hell they want, if they wanna be a SAHM, that's fine, and if they don't, that's fine, too."

Sculptor here. Everything here about the pottery experiment is 100% on point, as is that one famous Ira Glass quote. The fastest way to make enormous leaps and bounds as an artist is to focus on quantity rather than quality. When you start

You're on the money. Tesla, Emily Dickinson, and likely Van Gogh all had schizotypal personality disorder. Which is not so much a personality disorder in the sense most people think of them so much as it's the Aspergers analog of

Artist here. I've tried both the Xacto and KUM sharpeners mentioned in this thread. Both are now long, long in the trash after dulling and becoming useless. What you want is a Mobius+Ruppert sharpener. They're machined from solid
