This just shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how the work of history is done.

Historians don’t just read something, believe what it says, then say “that’s history, job done”.

They tease from a source glimpses of the past.

Each document or artifact provides information, and meta information, that can be used to give us a fuller picture of the past, whether the writer was telling the truth (whose truth?), writing known falsehoods, writing fiction, etc.

No historian believes The Lord of the Rings is true, but if looked at through the lens of history it could be a valuable historical artifact. The Lord of the Rings could teach one about things like: the state of literature and publishing in the mid-twentieth century, cultural attitudes towards war, religion, and industrialization, linguistic fluency among the population, the writer’s education level, social standing, and personal attitudes, etc.

You don’t exclude a source because it may have a bias, or known falsehoods, or missing information, etc.; you account for those in your study of the source and piece together what we can know despite those issues.

I use Green Beaver deodorant, and it seems to be pretty good. They also sell some other items on your list.

I’ve been doing this and it has been helpful.

The main reason I tried it was that my snoring was bothering my wife and it only happened when I was breathing through my mouth. I also had my dental hygienist comment that I must be a “mouth breather” when I’m sleeping, despite not being one while I’m awake.

I use a Breath Right strip on my nose, and the tape I use only keeps my mouth from opening involuntary. I could open my mouth easily if I tried, so I’m not really worried about suffocating or anything like that.

It felt a bit weird at first but it has definitely curtailed the snoring, so my wife likes it. Maybe it’s not for everyone, and some of the stories people tell about it seem pretty woo-woo, but it does what I need it to do with little trouble.
