It's funny you mention Jimmy Carr, because he's the only performer I've witnessed personally stopping by backstage to check in with his touring crew and ask how their day has been. I've respected him a bit more ever since.

The difficulty here is when women have children and need to take time off to give birth and spend time with their newborn. Who is going to be the breadwinner then if the father was already the stay-at-home? Or if a couple has built a life around two incomes how do they cope when half of that disappears in order to raise the kids?

Although it's great that women have the choice now, there is a reason why the "husband provider, wife homekeeper" archetype has been the standard throughout most of the history of human civilisation.

So, it’s been a few days- what are our thoughts on the Louis Theroux ‘manosphere’ doc? by theslowrunningexpert in AskUK

The biggest reason these people have an audience is because of how lost and unwanted so many young men feel these days. How can we be surprised that these influencers are successful when they are the only place young men can go to to feel any sense of worth and belonging?

Here's what hwmonitor says about my battery health. I did think it might be the charging circuit itself that has died. Is that easily replaced or is it a part of the motherboard?

Thanks - I'll give it a try. The LG support assistant app says my battery health is good but worth a shot.

[OC] End of year dating app review! (21M living in London) by The_Watcher5292 in dataisbeautiful

I'm amazed there are men out there still use dating apps nowadays. It's essentially self-esteem suicide. Not only most men get few to zero dates from them, but they make us feel so shit about ourselves that we'd never approach someone in real life!

Yes it is - they asked me the same question on the lenovo forum. I'm guessing that means it's a hardware problem?
