I read the article and just ended up with more questions. Shouldn't lead poisoning show up in a normal blood test?

There isn't really a "normal" blood test. You have to tell the lab what specific things you want them to look at. The closest there is to a normal test would be a complete blood count, which is largely counting white and red blood cells and platelets, and a complete metabolic panel, which is a readout of blood sugar, electrolytes, and a summary of the general status of your kidneys and liver. So you kind of have to already know what you're looking for when you order labs.

NFL football season kicked off today, so that means watching commercials.

Joe Montana lived in my neighborhood for a year or two and my friends and I figured we'd hit up his house cause he was a former nfl player so he'd probably give out full size bars, right? Nope. They weren't even the fun size rectangles, but were the tiny little bite size squares. Didn't even get to meet him cause his wife was handing out candy while he was off at some party. I'll always remember walking away from his house, disappointed, and looking into a window and seeing his kid in a dark room, illuminated only by a monitor with world of warcraft on it.

hosed up they went with Crypto House when Hodl House was right there.

Edit: Looking through the listing and it honestly seems pretty salvageable? Like I don't know what prices in the area are like, but it'd be pretty easy to pull down the crypto house sign, paint over the crypto wallpaper, and replace some of the more egregiously Trading Spaces-esque furniture choices (like those hideous red chairs and the weird chandeliers in every room).

That's the only reason I even know about him, and I have no idea how overpriced mediocre chain restaurant burgers and fries with a guaranteed doordash wait time even got off the ground in the first place.

Eddy Burback, of "I ate at every rainforest cafe that's still open" fame, actually just put out a video about ghost kitchens. The answer seems to be "food service companies offer services to brands and influencers to market the same menu differently, so you have one kitchen producing the same mediocre meals for a couple dozen restaurants at the same address." It also coincided with the pandemic kicking off, so people were ordering out more.

It's become awfully cluttered, yeah. I recently asked my daughter to list some signs of a crappy YouTube video that costs more attention than it gives you in enjoyment, just to check on her progress as a future media-savvy person.

My 10 y.o.'s (paraphrased) red flags for a poo poo video are:
  • Visible microphones
  • Neon lights/LCDs as background decor
  • Talking over crafting/creating which does not describe exactly what's happening
  • A video game being played but you can see the face of the person playing and/or a chat stream
  • A mention of liking and subscribing which contains a variation of '(aggressive verb) that like button'
  • Hosted by spouses
  • Creator's description of self as 'the channel'
  • "What's up guys" right out of the gate
  • Big white sans-serif text in the thumbnail

Large draw space with the plumbing at the back. While looking for that image I did come across quite a few of the fake draws that people are talking about, but they do all seem to be from US sites. Also found a reddit thread where people from Britain were also talking about them. As far as I can tell though thankfully this stupidity seems to be contained to those two countries.

What makes them dumb? It doesn't seem to eat into storage space under the sink, and it can give a more consistent appearance when put next to the other drawers and cabinets in your kitchen. Like, if you want to poo poo on the US, there's lots of options available. You don't need to reach this hard.
