That IS shit that matters. If that's how someone talks about women in private, I don't want to be in the same room as him, let alone give him more power over women. Along with his "locker room talk" defense, that was a perfect representation of the misogyny that we're fighting against. It wasn't that he used a dirty word, it's that he thinks half the population are objects to be grabbed.

    Narcolepsy is also under-diagnosed. The main symptom is excessive daytime sleepiness but lots of people (myself included) go years thinking they just like caffeine more than most people. It's also an autoimmune disease that's often triggered by a viral infection, so I'm expecting statistics to show an increase in narcolepsy symptoms post-COVID.

    Excellent review! I'm still processing but I agree with all of your points. Nathan Fielder is a once-in-a-generation mind. I love that he clocked Billy right away and didn't back down when Billy tried to intimidate him.

    Hey team, I have a 75-year-old house and lots of the floorboards on the main floor are creaky. I can feel a few of them travel when I walk on them. I've seen these kits with snap-off screws that secure the board to the joist and then snap off just below the surface. Do they work? Is there a better solution?

    The basement ceiling is unfinished, and I've read about shimming the loose boards from below. From the basement I see diagonal boards and then subfloor on top of that, so I'm not sure how I would shim anything. Thanks for any help you can offer!

     

    I'm looking for sunglasses that don't press on my temples or the side of my head. I don't have a large or wide head, but my head and scalp are so sensitive that most headphones and sunglasses give me nauseating headaches. Currently I have a pair of vintage Italian sunglasses that are lightweight and fairly wide, and otherwise some Milwaukee safety glasses with flexible rubber arms - comfortable, but not at all my aesthetic.

    Any brands you can recommend? Or should I just look for other sunglasses for people with wide faces?

     

    I've been thinking about making the switch for a year or two. I installed Graphene on an old phone to get a feel for it, and the only drawback I noticed was that it doesn't support Firefox. Is there anything else I should consider before switching? You can be honest - I'm mostly sold and just want to know what to expect.
