Is that really true? The stories I keep reading say that while many THOUGHT cursive would be dead by now, but not only are schools still teaching it, but some states have passed laws over the past couple of years mandating it (Louisiana and Arkansas, to name just two). From the NYT link: Most schools, parochial or otherwise, no longer teach penmanship — and only about 10 states still retain cursive writing requirements in their curriculum guides. In 2014, Florida added cursive writing to its learning requirements for the third, fourth and fifth grades.

Can we all agree that this is gross? She could wear a moth-eaten plaid jumper from a flea market and they’d mock her for being bad with money. Good Lord do conservatives hate this woman.

... the way we did the onboarding. You are treading on thin ice with me, pal. I don’t get it.

My health care quality students did group presentations the other night on a technique known as FMEA (Failure Mode Effects Analysis), where you ask about a process, what could go wrong, what are the consequences, what can we do to prevent it, etc. ... Given the backgrounds of the students, several presentations dealt with pharmaceutical errors. It is astounding to me that: 1) in this day and age so many millions of such errors occur every year; b) what a large proportion of those errors can be traced to bad prescriber handwriting; and iii) that it's still legal to handwrite prescriptions.

You are treading on thin ice with me, pal. I don’t get it. I like to make fun of that particular instance of corporate-speak.

Good Lord do conservatives hate this woman. I don't hate her in the least. In fact, I'd kind of like to see her mature into something along the lines of a Patrick Moynihan ... a liberal who actually knows his/her shit and nudges things in interesting directions from time to time. What I do hate is how much very, very sloppy "thinking" she's being allowed to get away because of what she is. Maybe this is as good as she's got ... there's no shame in that ... but she's never going to get anywhere from the pedestal she's been put on.

Keep taking photos of people's behinds without them knowing, and you'll eventually get your ass kicked. Or you should, at least.

I might even go so far as to say I agree. In the past two days we have been discussing that she dares to have $15,000 in the bank ahead of a big move, and that she dares to have a nice dress-up outfit (which I’m not even sure how “nice” or expensive that is). That’s garbage.

Manual recount is on in Florida Senate. Broward had 26,000 undervotes. Nelson's lawyer keeps saying machine error, and if he's right, Nelson will win. But it's far more likely those people missed the race on the ballot and didn't vote.

An employee wasn’t familiar with the website. Maybe one should understand that a deadline is not a great time to educate yourself about a new system. Hmmmm ... taught undergraduates much, you have.

The tweeter of Ocasio-Cortez's butt says he was complimenting her, you ninnies. Because he deleted it and it doesn't appear to be showing up on our thread as a result, I pasted a screenshot of it below. Bonus note, tweeps reveal in comments that he has a history as an ass-man.

The coat she’s CARRYING shows how “well put together” she is? Makes sense.
