I try to feel zen when I realize cursive is now a foreign language.

I hate to break it to you, but handwriting is not supposed to look like the super loopy smooth letters that they teach you on a chalkboard when you’re six.

That is in fact what a lowercase N is supposed to look like. It’s not supposed to look like the letter M. And it reveals how we get from calligraphy/handwriting n to metal type n.
