The amount of broscience in this infographic is quite concerning. It's no surprise the sources section is just a bunch of websites, with no real studies links. They even cite the huffington post and bbcom as a source of info!

To anyone interested in real advice, go read something like:

https://www.amazon.com/Advanced-Sports-Nutrition-2nd-Dan-Benardot/dp/1450401619/qid=1523991868&sr=8-1&keywords=Advanced-Sports-Nutrition-2nd-Dan-Benardot

or

The later is quite good if you are in a hurry and want to debunk the most common misconceptions

edit: fixed the links

edit2: BTW, thank you OP for posting. Even if I don't agree with the info, I still believe that any blueprint that motivates people to train and eat better is always valuable. cheers

If you liked this, you will probably appreciate a book called Molloy's Live for Success. This is by the same guy who wrote the book Dress for Success. He did actual research into the habits and body language of successful people, and his book teaches you how to, essentially, come off as a successful upper-middle-class person, even if you aren't. It's something actual successful upper-middle-class people pick up by contact, but you can learn it purposefully as well.

The book is old and out of print (though there are plenty of used copies available on Amazon) but a lot of the stuff in it is timeless.

If you're interested in this, Class: A Guide Through the American Status System by Paul Fussell is a great read. It was written some decades back, so you'd think it would be dated, but it really isn't. He holds no punches, so you'll need a bit of thick skin when your class is being discussed. But still, what he says is so true and very funny at times.

I read a translation of it (not sure if the same could be said for other translations), but after each chapter was an analysis of notable lines that provided explanation, context and elaborations on what was meant, or what was entailed by the wording. It was a seriously heavy book, and took me a while to chew through, but I feel like it was worth it.

Found the translation I read

The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman. https://www.amazon.com/Love-Languages-Secret-that-Lasts/dp/080241270X/

Here is a translation in more casual English with cool woodcut illustrations.

After 10 seconds searching in the comments, I found it. Thanks!

This is from illustrator Stephen Beasty's book The Coolest Cross-Sections Ever, which is itself a compilation of several of his books. Very highly recommended books, even if they are a little out of date.

Snake head shape is also a bad idea. Most snakes will flatten their head when threatened or preparing to strike. Think of what cobras can do, but not so extreme. This is to puff up and look more threatening. This isn't 100% universal, but a common behavior.

Yes your rattle snakes of the family Crotalidae/Viperidae do have very prominent head shape, but the rattling is such a better way to pick them out. Contrasting, the coral snake, Micrurus tener, has a very round head, looks very similar to milk snakes, however their neurotoxin venom will kill you.

EDIT: Best advice I have is to just pick a field guide of your region and read it. (https://www.amazon.com/Peterson-Reptiles-Amphibians-Eastern-Central/dp/0544129970) Other then that, just let the sneks be sneks and slither away!

I am 100% sure this is from here so everyone talking about the validity can worry only about it being a reference guide for a table top RPG.

Olive oil that can handle that high of heat is lampante - lamp oil. It's most likely been stored for months in huge vats, adulterated with other oils, and purfumed to mask it's musty aroma. It's useless in any culinary sense, and has no business being in any respectable kitchen.

Do some reading. http://www.amazon.com/Extra-Virginity-Sublime-Scandalous-World/dp/0393343618

Probably not what you meant but this is a good read. The 20 logical fallacies should be taught to all students.

Here’s the article the author keeps referring to

and here’s the book the article is about

I had this book as a kid. This was at the height of the Rubik's Cube craze. Other kids brought their cubes into school so I could solve it for them. I was a king for that one day in first grade.

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_with_alcohol_prohibition

Most of these countries either have exceptions, the ban is regional, or are in such a state of political dysfunction the ban is effectively unenforced. Banning alcohol cost more money than prohibiting.

>Alcohol kills more people every year than slave revolts ever did in total

During prohibition, deaths from alcohol overdose doubled, as unregulated alcohol flowed through the market in the US.

> The slave owners didn't care. They did not give up their slaves due to market forces.

The Slave owners did care. Because they did gave up their slaves. In many cases they gave them freedom voluntarily, realising it would be cheaper and better to employ them.

>The abolitionists were not motivated by economic efficiency. That is a completely unsupported fiction you have invented.

This book, by an actual historian, has many sources indicating that slavery was not profitable in the long term, and therefore should be abolished. My claim is supported by facts.
