     my mom: "kids can't physically write anymore! they don't know how letters work if they're not on a tablet or a phone! I know this because my friend's a teacher and she told me so"

     @senj no no you don't understand, her friend? her friend's a *teacher* so of course she knows about the youth of today and their ways

     @checkervest My own parents’ argument for why kids need to learn cursive “How else will they read the Constitution?”

     I dunno… in one of the trillion sources it’s not in written cursive? Wikipedia? Books? ??

     @checkervest Have you pointed out the existence of letters on the tablet and phone?

     @checkervest @ahermitforhire I've seen this argument a lot, their argument is that if you read a transcription of it it could be altered. Except if the government wanted to lie about it they'd put a fake out on display in the capitol for you to practice your cursive reading on lmao
