  • As a straight guy that started painting his nails, I can assure you that the entire process is surprisingly simple.

    Buying nail polish? Hmm, he must be buying some for his gf how nice.

    Wearing nail polish? No matter how vibrant, I have never had someone notice my nails unless I have had actual prolonged exposure to them, in which case they almost immediately assume it is because of a girlfriend or daughter or something.

    Most of the time people don’t notice, it took my boss two weeks even when we work next to each other pointing at things on a screen regularly.



  • Getting upset by a user asking a group of people gathered together specifically for talking about books for recommendations of a similar style to a book they like is pretty weird. What else are we supposed to talk about? This community is called books, the post is about books, the comments are about books. Seems to be pretty on topic to me.



  • The year is 2032, pirelli introduces the new “Super-semi-inter-softs” as part of an effort to smooth the performance gap between the C16 and C17 compounds.

    In all seriousness though, it seems like an issue definitely in need of a solution. The wet racing is plagued by many things and it seems both pirelli and F1 are scrambling to fix some of them, but the general vibe i got from this article is that perhaps they aren’t communicating enough what the goals are. Is the main problem the spray? Or how about the speed? Certainly an interesting problem, the best wet tire in the world means nothing if the teams just switch to a faster tire the moment they think they can get a way with it. Great read, thanks!



  • There is still one where I live, and I read the other day that my town is building another one on the other side of town. So at least some places still have them. I remember spending my whole summer at ours in my hometown, but I haven’t been to my local one in the 10 years I’ve lived here. Not sure how I would go about being comfortable to go by myself as a young adult, though I know no one else there actually cares. Nice read by the way.
