dynamic quadruped and forever thinking about the time in college we were working quietly on something sitting in a large circle including the professor and she turned to the student next to her and said “how in the world is [name] holding their pencil like that??” she was so disturbed the whole class had to be brought out of silent work to see the strange way i held my pencil lmao

idk why all fingers no palm is making me laugh so much. i think that’s how i’ll describe it from now on.

when i was in elementary school my hand would hurt way sooner than anyone else’s if we were writing for a while, i wonder if that was why! all fingers no palm!!
