She's modelling for the women's section of the Prada website, so it's reasonably safe to assume she is a woman.

Yeah, the general reason such thin models are used is to put the focus on the cloths and not on the models body. If they use people who are well endowed, then people are only looking at the model's tits and ass.

Girl, but okay.

Is Prada trying to bring back the baggy suit look? Please no, it was horrible.

It wasn't Israel funds being smuggled in, it was Qatari funds. And how would it have looked if Israel blocked official Qatari aid to Gaza?

According to the article it was a single woman doing the search. The real issue was the camera in the room sending footage to the lobby. But the Hijab being removed is a must when searching for contraband.

Generally hats are removed to make sure people aren't smuggling things in their hair into the jail.

Draw 2 cards.

It's a fuck as in what the fuck is that, and it certainly isn't a dish to look at.

But when it comes to something you are voting on, you should take some time to educate yourself on the candidates/issues from multiple sources. Not doing so is stupid.

I assume this applies only to real wasabi, and not the dyed Horseradish most places call wasabi.

Ignorance of who you are voting for is stupid.

No, hotdogs have traditionally been beef. And they taste great.

The people I've met in real life? That would be a little tricky. But I've met actual open fascists.

And there's also people who support fascist policy, but don't say fascism; they are still supporters of fascism.

I don't think I've ever heard someone from the right say they support fascism

I have.

replaced by keyboarding and computer skills.

I took those as well as cursive. Plenty of time for both.

just like we study historical documents transcribed by historians and educators.

And it's always better to have the skills to read them yourself. And being able to read cursive opens up lots of interesting documents, many of which have not been transcribed.

And once again, cursive is extremely easy to learn.

You learn a second language to speak a second language.

And to read in that language, and to translate from that language. Learning cursive is like learning a language, yet it is extremely easy to learn.

if I didn’t waste so much time learning cursive

What time? Cursive takes almost no time to learn. I learned it at the same time as learning print writing. It added almost no time to our writing classes, and I have the ability to read and write in both.

Why are you wasting your energy on this then? You could have shut up many comments ago

Name them. I learned cursive and a bunch of other subjects at 6, and I don't feel like cursive needed to be replaced by anything.

And by your logic we should just stop teaching history, because it's already been studied. Let's stop teaching math because we already created calculators. Let's stop teaching second languages, because other people have already translated things.

American society and educators who seem to be doing just fine

hahahahaha, American education is garbage these days, no wonder you're stuck on dumb hill.

And what other skills can we effectively teach six year olds that we aren't already teaching them at that age? Skills they can actually understand and remember.

And it's being able to read any historical documents, family letters are just one example I gave. And being able to read documents yourself means you either transcribe it yourself, or verify others transcriptions. If no one can read cursive, you can;t trust the accuracy of previous transcriptions.

So yeah, it's still somewhat useful, and a lot more useful than most things we can get 6 year olds to remember.

Man, you are dying on dumb hill here.

I imagine for a long time eating was the preferred disposal, don't waste any calories when food is scarce.

You are massively overestimation how much time it takes to learn cursive.

Also I learned cursive in first grade, when classes on basic financial literacy and sex education are entirely useless.

You really are just being dumb. Learning cursive is a useful skill, and takes almost no class time at an age when advanced subjects will just be forgotten or not at all understood.
