I prefer smart wool, but am totally on board with nice merino wool socks from any brand. Happy feet have helped me maintain a happy life. It’s like a good pillow or the right jacket for today’s weather for me.

Totally agree on the boardgame suggestion if it suits their personality. You need to know what complexity they are into, first.

You can only get this effect in the center of your visual field due to the organization of your retina where you have color vision. The rest of your eye is much more sensitive to light so you can see dim stars more easily in your periphery by looking away from them a bit. Maybe you can use your own biology to help enjoy the night sky even more! If you get a friend, you can use colored pen caps and get them to hold them in your periphery and tell them what color it is. You don’t be able to until they reach the color vision part of your visual field if you stay looking forward.

It’s trippy, but your brain fills in color for you a lot of the time.

But evolution ended up giving us two external tubes to breathe. My conclusion is that its better to have redundancy in external tubes openings for air.

So, to avoid the efficiency of a branch that lets us eat and breathe from our mouths would you make it so we can’t breathe from our mouths and we still have 2 tubes to breathe as redundancy? If so, where would you place the extra tube opening? Head or further away? Toe or back would help act as a snorkel, I’d think.

I tried twice and it went poorly.

Living this right now, but it’s great. She’s organizing my entire plex server!
