Common mistake: When you’re ascribing a bad quality to them, “millenials” means everyone born after 1960. If you’re ascribing a good quality to them, it only means people born between December 12, 1989, and December 14, 1989.
I knew someone who did physics in cursive. It was impossible to read (not bc it was sloppy, because seeing Greek letters as cursive threw me for a loop)
How would this mess with millennials? I think you mean gen z.

They’re one of the good ones
We learned cursive.
Were told our assignments in high school would get an automatic zero if we didn’t turn them in in cursive, even…

Yeah! Most of us can read analog clocks too!
I actually work in an after school program and I’ve been teaching kids how to read analog clocks. It is interesting to say the least
Even my gen alpha kid was learning cursive in third grade last year. I don’t expect him to write using it much but at least he knows how to read it.
Apparently that’s not very common anymore.
The only thing I write in cursive these days is my signature.
Most of the time I don’t even write, I type or use swipe-to-text.
I journal in cursive since it’s faster and more natural, otherwise I use print.
