Is there a book about eloquence? Not neccesarly a self-help one, but a book about properly forming ideas before speaking.

I want to avoid talking using "like" all the time, similar to that tiktok girl webm.

Yikes guys, try not to be so bitter over the fact that I had the gumption and talent to actually publish.

I’m seriously surprised and happy my thread has stayed up this long. I’ve also gotten lots of social media exposure—a win in my book!

I.Q. remains the best metric for prediction of positive life outcomes. Enormous efforts have been made to remove cultural bias from the tests, such that modern versions are just geometric patterns containing no linguistic symbols at all. Despite this the results remain consistent, and statistically speaking g factor is still an ironclad predictor. The racial gap also remains more or less unchanged.

Gould's refutation of TBC has been rightly criticized as egregious straw-manning. Gould also accused Goddard's early study of race and brain size of bias and accused Goddard of manipulating data. A later study showed Gould's analysis was wrong and Goddard's original measurements had only 2% margin of error. It was Gould who was playing dishonest games with data.

Gould was a grandstanding kike who couldn't be fucked to even call my school and tell us he wouldn't be coming after we spent a week preparing for his visit. In retrospect I'm glad he never showed.

I not only read it, I read Gould's facile critique of it.

I'm very glad Murray outlived Gould.

The pain of 'her' evening dilation session.

Freud is an olympic-sized swimming pool of bathwater and an avocado pit of baby.

As much as I wanted to appreciate Jung I've never read a damn useful thing he wrote. There might not be any.
