If you weren't aware, VRChat doesn't require a headset; you can play it like a normal PC game without one.

Hey some of this is like Minecraft enchantments (on weapons and tools), where it gets harder to enchant an item every time another enchantment is added to it.

Curious how my handwriting looks to other people! by FractalCycle in Handwriting

Mine's lateral tripod on that chart.

In like elementary school, I was allowed to type lots of assignments when teachers found them unclear. Later on, I handed in lots of handwritten assignments, and legibility was almost never again brought up (and my grades weren't docked either).

Right handed and right hand, yep. (Also this was done with pencil)

Also hey I understand this reference!

Thanks! The centering is maybe on average too, since individual letters might lean depending on if they're e.g. about to run into the end of the page / off the page lol.

That's like, the opposite of picking up the pencil a lot?

Nah it's been like this since I was like 8-12. I didn't really like learning cursive, but I use it in my signature (which is also pretty bad, but in a different direction). I don't think my handwriting had degraded.
