How did you like Ketty Jay? Don't know much about it but sounds like it could be fun. Woke?

Cultivate this skill and it can take you far.

Disagree. If not here, where? I'm in my mid-30s and still occasionally pick up on some new optimization for routines like this. This is precisely the community, and precisely the thread, I'd expect to find such insights.

For sure you should be squeegeeing off your skin with your hands before applying the towel.

Also, /u/Interversity of the subreddit pilled me on the wholesomeness of briefly using a blow dryer on one's body after toweling to really just get rid of the excess moisture. But this is an advanced technique and I usually don't.

It's certainly way below the level you want but I have a soft spot for Gombrich's A Little History of the World. Highly readable -- I picked it up in a bookstore and read half of while standing on that spot -- and a decent topical overview, though overly focused on Europe. It's not going to do everything you want but has extremely high return on investment if you're looking to get a basic picture. Perhaps will serve as a good jumping off point?

Really the book is a sweet little pleasure and I'll probably enjoy re-reading it myself soon.

Just as a point of order, AI can be a superstimulus or it can offer superstimuli; the phrase "a superstimuli" should never occur and it seems to happen a lot for some reason.

My wife and I tried to watch The Walking Dead but even in the first season I was baffled by the decisions of the characters with such regularity that eventually I decided that even if the zombies don't exactly deserve a win the characters certainly deserved the loss.

Made myself a little flag with a "Z" on it to wave whenever they did something outrageously idiotic and nonsensical.

I think we finished the first season. But I'm not married to her any more.

So many times!

My two favorite characters are

Westernized Dark Elf male, starts in the Imperial Legion which is his introduction back to his ancestral country, initially in Imperial Cult. Starts to get into the thick of things, abandons the Cult, goes native in the Temple. Joins House Redoran, goes full Nerevarine, but still with an eye to trying to preserve the good parts of Imperial influence even while re-establishing Morrowind as an independent power. (And screw Bethesda for what they do to it afterward!)

Westernized Dark Elf female, scrupulous apprentice in the Mage's guild by day, moonlighting as a thief by night, supplemented by her budding arcane powers. Becomes intrigued by the native culture and joins the Morag Tong until she's well-steeped in that tradition. This opens the door for her to decide that her future lies on Vvardenfell and particularly in House Telvanni, as it's what will best-allow her to capitalize upon her inherent abilities. Always becomes the Vampiric Lady of Uvirith's Grave, complete with many of the truly-excellent expansion mods for that site. Has little use for the Tribunal. Uses Vivec's soul as a doorstop.

I mean obviously they’re not expressing the majority opinion, because their opinion is ridiculous

Sorry, walk me through the logic here?

And getting drunk makes me want to get drunk, and getting high makes me want to get high.

And doing either makes me want to consume really alarming quantities of industrial sugar/fat slop.

although she balks at me reading the copy of the Hobbit I slipped in the drawer. Just not old enough for all those words without pictures yet.

FWIW there's a pretty good comic version.

more socially functional African Americans would probably have an IQ above 85, albeit still lower than whites by a noticeable amount

These are also much more likely to have higher proportions of white genetics.
