      It’s a blessing and a curse… For one, I’m constantly wondering how people can be so easily duped by bullshit on the Internet

    The number of times people have said to me, “how do you know that?”

    All this in the meme, plus me asking people about themselves in social interactions so I don’t have to talk as much.

    I just did a deep dive on food utensils today. I didn’t look up knives because that seems silly. But spoons are the longest reigning champion of cutlery. Followed by chopsticks and then forks. I believe the oldest found spoon was from ~17,000-15,000 BCE. While the earliest found chopsticks were from 1,700-1,200 BCE.

    Spoon supremacy

      Find a Wikipedia article and look for the referenced academic sources, then trace the references within those. If you’re good at skim reading you can get quite a bit out of it or with meds wind up with a decent knowledge base on a certain thing.
