He got one but refuses to sleep with it. It also took several years just to even get him to get the sleep study done. He believes its due to his weight gain and wants to lose weight. Hes lost some but hes pretty stubborn about it.
Losing weight can help sleep apnea, but it won't cure it (to that other poster who was told to just lose weight, you ought to talk to a specialist; not enough doctors understand sleep medicine). Sometimes with obstructive, you can get surgery if they know where the problem is, but that's the extent of cures. I hope you can eventually convince him to stick with it. Around half of people never do, but the quality of life improvement and better health really are worth it. Not to mention treating the sleep apnea can also help with the weight.

I've got both obstructive and central sleep apnea, and for me at least, my quality of life drops so low without the mask that I'll never go without it. It was scary getting started though.

I find it alarming that facial recognition can be the sole basis for a warrant to arrest someone given how inaccurate the technology is. It's kind of sad that this guy did well for himself by only being in jail for a week. I wonder how many other people this happens to who are forced to accept a plea deal or are charged with other crimes to cover up for police misconduct?

A friend of mine had a volatile ex girlfriend who would overreact to the slightest things. One time they were driving and she wanted him to stop at a store and he didn't want to. She flipped out and threw herself out of the passenger side. She called the cops saying he threw her out. After examination they concluded she did it herself and she got put in psychiatric ward for a week.

Not every situation is like that but he could have done serious time for absolutely nothing.
This kind of thing needs more attention. Yes, claims of abuse should be taken seriously, and yes it is wrong to stigmatize the mentally ill, but people do need to be aware that these patterns of behavior exist, are dangerous, and are definitely not OK.

More than one of my relatives do things like this, and it just makes you die inside. Like, you're supposed to be nice and compassionate, and maybe they are OK most of the time, but you never know when this is going to happen. Will they start rumors? Kill your reputation? Involve the police? Attack you physically?

I also had a friend once who was so toxic that her doctor refused to refer her to group therapy because they thought it would be dangerous for the other participants to be forced to interact with her.

Sith don't do affection, and when it comes down to it, a powerful apprentice in Vader is worth a lot more than a normie muggle with no connection to the Force. If Vader was "below" Tarkin, it was only because the Emperor told him to go along with what he was doing. If Vader had cut his head off in some service to the Emperor's greater ambitions, I doubt he would have cared. Losing Vader on the other hand would have been a big loss before Luke came along.

What the fuck are you doing to those burgers that makes them take an hour to make? The longest you can make the process take is 20 minutes if you bake them. As for the price of ingredients, everything except the hamburger you'll only be using part of for the meal and you can save the rest for later. Also, you can get as many as four burgers out of a pound of meat. There will be left overs just from cooking the burgers.

I'm aware it's popular, but the way it was described to me makes it seem like it learns what you like, and then creates an endless feed of short videos that make your perspective feel validated instead of challenging you or showing you varied content. That doesn't seem interesting or healthy to me.

I saw a younger 20-something relative over Christmas, and I discovered they watch Tiktok and short Youtube videos almost exclusively. Even when they do watch an actual show, they spoil everything with cleverly edited TikTok videos and wiki deep dives. They get most of their news and form their beliefs about what is going on the world from TikTok. Family movies are something everyone enjoys (and this particular person is a huge fan of movies), and even when they are excited to watch something and are enjoying it, they constantly ask questions about what is happen or what is going to happen, and if you aren't clear upfront about not wanting to be spoiled, they'll go ahead and look up spoilers, spoil the movie or show for you, and Segway into talking about how they feel about the spoilers instead of watching the damn movie.

They will also ramble on incoherently about some half remembered story someone told them about something they saw on Twitter, and they'll do it for hours. You are watched carefully to see if you don't seem to be paying attention or make a comment to another person during the monologue, and they get mad and remember it for later.

Is this just one person's particular quirks, or have I failed to keep up with the times?

Honestly, I thought it was hilarious. They send a team nobodies to fight an angry god who can only be defeated if he decides to give up. They didn't even come prepared with compelling arguments about why he should give up or with any kind of a deal he might be interested in. Not even as a deception. They literally just appeared, declared themselves good and him bad, and demanded he give up his powers and be imprisoned just because they said so. Nobody would go for that, especially not a former slave.

The kid was irritating and the city backdrop didn't look particularly realistic, but I loved the Rock's character and how he and the "heroes" differed. I think the uncut, R-rated version would have been better. Dr. Fate was a cool character that really should have had his own movie. They needed to lean into the violence and weirdness more like Suicide Squad did, but overall it was a really fun watch.

I do, and I think I'd still think that even if I couldn't go back to being a kid. While there are some benefits to living in the modern era, I think they are largely overshadowed by the negatives. The constant distraction a need for the stimulus of a device probably isn't healthy mentally or socially. Social media is full of misinformation and is a tool to control and radicalize people. Yes, there is more freely available education, but most of what folks use the internet for is doom scrolling and making stupid posts on Reddit. Sooner or later (probably, in my humble, opinion sooner) citizens of the first world will come to regret the existence of mass surveillance and the non-existence of police reform.

The climate and ecosystem were a lot less fucked up in the 90s, too. I remember how different the weather used to be, and how many more birds and other wildlife there used to be.
