As I said, I have no super powers of observation and that everyone is born with good instincts on this. It's taught in classes on protecting yourself from predators: believe your instincts.
I counter your argument with this: some people get heavily invested in internet celebs and in order to protect their own egos will gaslight themselves in to believing "nah, he's a good guy".
I was only vaguely aware of this guy. When he released his ratcheting driver gadget a while back, it popped up on a YT review channel that I do watch. Out of curiosity I looked into it.
This Linus guy immediately struck me as a weasel and a d-bag. I don't have any super powers of observation. People should trust their instincts better. Human instincts are bad compared to animals, but one thing we're all pretty naturally good at is detecting scumbags. Listen to your instincts, folks. His "charm" is as real as CheezWhiz.
Mask fit and machine settings can be tricky to get dialed in, and they make a big difference. There's a pretty good YouTuber with a channel called CPAP Reviews that may be useful for you. Your doctor and DME provider should be a good resource, and in many cases they are...buy sadly this can be hit or miss.
One of our dogs required three surgeries. First one knee, then the other. She was like a new dog, able to run full speed again. Then one of the implants got infected, so it had to be removed. We decided to do both at the same time (figuring if one got infected, the other one would, too). Fortunately, it's OK to remove the implants once the joints have had enough time to heal up.
It was all super expensive and highly inconvenient, but she's still doing great and running around like a happy goofball. So it was all worth it.
If there are any stairs your dog needs to go up and/down think about installing some kind of ramp until the dog is doing better. It helps a lot.
I find my fellow Americans to be too obnoxious, belligerent, and trigger happy to go to theaters or concerts anymore. I don't even feel very safe driving in my normal-sized car to work or the grocery, as I'm surrounded by reckless idoots in giant SUVs and pickup trucks. We've regressed in so many ways.
Beyond Good & Evil, 2003. It's been so long since I played it, I don't remember much other than it was a sandbox and it had some neat mechanics and cute characters and I loved it. The closing credits musical sequence is magical, too.
Sadly HR exists to protect the company from the employees, not the other way around. This is always the case in the USA. Not sure about other places.
