Odd, guess theres a lot of variability to such things. I have an alpaca hoodie which is a bit scruffy but I wouldn’t describe it as sandpaper at all. My alpaca socks are some of the softest things I’ve ever touched.

Alpaca or wool socks are some of the best gifts you can get!

This?

Edit: I really like Willie Nice Christmas

Excellent pick!

I initially had a negative reaction, but it’s grown on me. I’ve listened to it 3 times and have added it to my christmas playlist.

Spending a little extra money on a more expensive brand of something you really like can be worth it.

It’s often not worth it to do the “right thing” and save money by buyinh a generic or off-brand item you’ll end up not being happy with. Assuming you can afford the cost, the disappointment of eating off-brand cereal that tastes like paper, factory-farmed eggs, or wearing discount clothes that are cheap and look bad or have an odd fit just isn’t worth it.

Can you recommend any particular model?

What else there is will vary greatly depending on the geologic context of the hot spring. Along with water vapor there can be gasses such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, helium, radium, argon, methane, and I’m sure many other things.

Sure does!

Just the way I like it

Whoever downvoted you deserves a wedgie

I judge people who judge others for gatekeeping. God forbid I have a well informed and strong opinion based on experience. If I share that with a casual or new person then it’s now called gatekeeping.

It’s ok to have different opinions but not all opinions are equal, and if you’re a casual participant or new to a field/hobby/whatever your opinion doesn’t matter as much. Additionally, if you are discouraged and feel held back by strong opinions by others then maybe you should be kept out.

That was me up until my mid 20’s

What about 3 hours early in the night, say 11pm to 2am?

In a pinch I could, by pretending to be in a zoom meeting.

True, but I’ve found it is just as like to change things for the worse as the better. Waking up from a deep deep sleep after only an hour can leave me as a zombie for the whole day.

I ended up sleeping for maybe 20 minutes this time and it has worked out so far.

Great answer
