              In a few decades maybe it’ll officially be “keming”

      Huh. Weird. You made that comment. I didn’t. sometimes my Lemmy glitches after I leave a comment it does things like this to me:

      instead of posting my comment, it posts my username over somebody else’s comment 🤔 It’s a temporary glitch and It fixes itself after I exit then come back. I captured that screenshot to get evidence of the glitch before it fixed itself.

          You’re right. I should report this glitch. This is the first time I’ve been able to catch it and put it into words.

          there are a few glitchy things about this app but those of us who are loyal to it are loyal suckers for sure.

      I’m pretty sure there is an extra “picket”.

      Edit: I may be wrong, but I don’t know enough about calligraphy to be sure.

        No, there’s not. I Zoomed in and scrolled it one letter at a time. It’s the right number of pickets for minimum. It’s just a horrible, horrible mind fuck. Lol

      Does Russian “chinchilla” begin with a ч? Or a ш?

      If it starts with a “ch” sound as in “ч,” chinchilla would look like this:

      Yeah, Russian cursive is terrible. It’s so bad than on a rare occaion I have to handwrite anything, I don’t really expect it to be read by anyone.

    This is actually a thing. When learning calligraphy, it was one of the exercises we did. If you have good enough control of your hand and pen, then all strokes should be the same length, slanted the same way, and separated by the same spacing. When you manage this apparent “unreadable” thing, it means you nailed it!

    The example below comes from this site (not mine)

        Ha, true, it can be almost as hairy as Tengwar especially if you write nonsense. Quick, name all the letters:

        edit: made it worse

        revenge of the edit: “minimum” isn’t exactly easy to read either:

        I think you arw getting downvoted because people have misread your comment and think you didnt get my joke. The irony being that you clearly did get my joke and actually joined in on the joke with your comment. I think your spelling is too much like typoglycemia.
