Can You Train Your Ears to Become More Sensitive?
Is your body perfectly toned? Are your workdays marathons of effortless achievement? Do your relationships proceed from a place of maximal openness/empathy? Have you, through therapy or nootropics, trained your brain away from thoughts of sadness/despair?

To which we’d respond: your ears. A finely-tuned pair has tremendous advantages as both practical tool and status symbol.
