Ymmv but there are bar soaps you can get that have extra moisturizers added for sensitive skin. Idk how sensitive you are compared to my skin but they actually leave my skin pretty well moisturized.

I too am depicted and I’m not sure how to fix it at this point 🥲

You’re totally right and we’ll never see it in our lifetimes… but damn it’d be cool to be able to take an express bullet train coast to coast in the states.

I’ve had it happen before but I can’t think of any specific examples.

My reaction to it however has evolved over time. When I was younger I’d be way more embarrassed over it and just stop debating, accepting defeat at the next opportunity, only to shrink away in shame.

Nowadays though, I’ll still be embarrassed, but immediately admit fault, laugh at my stupidity and issue any necessary retraction. People are usually disarmed when you can admit you were wrong and they were right. Even more if you throw a little joke about being dumb or something in there.
