I've found something similar with old films: there have been countless movies made, and the better ones have been preserved and left for us today. However, they are often less accessible and need commentaries to clue us in to their wo

Definitely a good selection of books, just a note that the actual books in the series sometimes have quite small print and aren't the most comfortable way to read. I'd recommend using the list and then checking for recent transla

Thank you for posting this. He was in the tech industry - I feel like he may have had an account here, or known someone who does. It's a small world, it's weird his identity hasn't been tracked down yet...

I agree, videos shouldn't be censored unless they put other folks in danger. It's scary that there are some "flat earthers" who are just playing characters in order to get the ad revenue, but in the end they're har

All indications are that Americans are fatter than ever, but I wish this poll included height as well, for more context. Even though BMI (height + weight) is imperfect, I think it's still more descriptive than just weight alone. Also
