Learning cursive: -allows you to sign your soul away to the devil in blood -helps with deciphering those fancy, webdings-esque fonts -has the added benefit of keeping your writings private from nosy, know-nothing kids -will help politicians sign bills into law again, which hasnât happened since 2012

In the 1820s, British potters figured out something clever. Americans would pay more for plates with American buildings on them. So factories in Staffordshire, England started cranking out dinner sets decorated with scenes of places they'd never been. Hotels, capitols, canals.

Piet Mondrian found fame, fortune and glory with his grid-like paintings lit with basic colours. But did many of his ideas come from Marlow Moss? Our writer celebrates an extraordinary British talent ...

I lived in these neighborhoods aged 20-23, within a few hundred meters of each site. Cannot begin to explain how this institutional violence becomes tangled into memory when it happens on your street, where you greet your neighbors, in the places where you love and fail and build and live your life

I remember going with my parents (a surgeon and an anesthesiologist) to a museum in France filled with medieval era medical instruments, and when we got to the section on gynecological instruments they were shocked to see that what was used in the 1400s was basically what is used now. Thread.

Scottish artist Elizabeth Keith wrote of this woodblock print "Flower Street, Hong Kong" (c.1944): "A rather difficult one to print. I could not leave the printer to his own sweet will. I suppose that is why I had so few printed... There will never be a Flower Street like that again in Hong Kong"

I am an artist in a film. I swan about the studio, covered in painted clothes while drinking wine with palette in hand, occasionally having my partner come over for an afternoon of wild sex. Exhibitions of my work happen with no effort; in fact the paint's typically wet when I hang them in a gallery
