Popular TikToker @davdlifts recently caught the attention of over 43 million people after he documented himself cleaning his sister's messy room, referring to it as her "depression room."
Known for making funny skits on the platform, @davdlifts first prepared for the clean by putting rubber gloves on his hands...and feet.
He then suited up in a trashbag and was ready to begin:
He gave a little "before" pan of the room:
It's a lot of clothes, but also random other things:
As well as a vanity loaded with items:
So, he gets right to work, loading up the dirty clothes.
And he eventually starts making progress.
After he is able to make the bed...
He starts untangling her hair tools.
And sweeping the floor.
Lastly, he starts organizing her vanity.
He continued until the whole room was spotless.
I say he completed a job well done!
People obivously rushed to the comments to award him with "Brother of the Year" for this:
But a common theme was apparent in the comments:
People saw it as an opportunity to discuss how no one should judge this reality for some people:

It is just real life:
People also shared their own experiences having their rooms surprised cleaned by loved ones when they were struggling:
Some people said it was the kindest thing they've ever experienced:
And how the simple act meant so much at the time:

Woman overhears 'life-changing' info about finding fresh fruit in supermarket
It can be hard to know the best before date of fruit and vegetables because many supermarkets have removed them from the packaging. But one woman has overheard some 'life-saving' information There are few things more frustrating than buying fresh fruit at the supermarket, only to realise it's gone off the very next day. Sometimes it can be very difficult to know how long fruit and vegetables will last, especially if there's no specific best before or sell by date. Use-by dates and best before dates are important, as the first is related to food safety, while the second is related to food quality. If a product has a use-by date you shouldn't eat it, even if it looks and smells okay, as it could make you ill. These are usually placed on food items that go off quickly, such as meat products or ready-to-eat salads. If it's a best before date, (which is sometimes shown as BBE, best before end), it's still safe to eat after the date, but it may. not be at its best. This may appear on things such as frozen foods, dried foods or tinned foods. However, it's not always easy to tell when a food item will go off. For example, many supermarkets don't print a best before date on fruit and vegetables, and instead print a code on it, which is believed to help reduce unnecessary food waste at home. But with the cost of living still really high, many of us want to avoid wasting money and having to throw food away if it goes bad before we're able to eat it. But luckily, one woman overheard some information in a supermarket which has proved "life-saving" when it comes to making sure the fruit is as fresh as can be. Channon Mooney took to TikTok to share that she'd just learned some "life-changing, top secret information". "I'm hoping it's not common knowledge and I've just put you onto something here," the content creator added. Channon then brought some packets of fruit and vegetables out her fridge, including peppers, grapes and asparagus. She explained that she has "cracked the code" for knowing when fruit and vegetables expires, even when there's no use-by or sell-by date. Channon said: "In Asda yesterday we heard a worker tell someone this. They don't have the dates on them anymore, but see how it says F2? And this says E31." She then went on to explain that because F is the sixth letter of the alphabet, it corresponds to the sixth month, which is June. The number corresponds with the day of that month. So for example, F2 means it's the second day, so it's June 2. Similarly, when it says E31, it means May 31. She also had a packet which said F4 on, which means June 4. "If anyone wants to find better dates on their food, that is the code. That is the secret information. I'm actually mind-blown." And it turns out Channon wasn't the only one to not know this information. "I needed this! Thank you," said one person. "Sorry this is groundbreaking!" added another. And a third wrote: "Omg! Mind-blown." However, some people already knew the trick to finding out the date on the packaging. "I thought this was common knowledge," said one person. "This is common knowledge, from an ex Sainsbury's and Tesco employee," added another. Meanwhile, someone else explained the reason: "They took the dates off to reduce food waste, too many people were using the dates to determine its condition rather than looking/smelling."

Rory McIlroy under fire after US Open interview as golf fans have their say
Rory McIlroy hasn't always had the best relationship with the media as fans have criticised the Northern Irishman for his comments during the US Open Golf ace Rory McIlroy 's remarks following his latest US Open stint have sparked a flurry of debate among fans and pundits alike. The five-time major winner, who avoided journalists after the opening rounds, broke his silence speaking to the press after seven long championship rounds across major tournaments. McIlroy, fresh from his Masters triumph, spoke frankly about his tribulations at the Pennsylvania course. Not only did he express hesitation about continuing past Friday's round, but he also stoked controversy by stating that he has "earned the right" to select when he engages with media outlets. This candidness stirred a reaction on social media; some golf enthusiasts dubbed McIlroy's attitude as brashness, while others slung harsher words calling him a "Complete loser" and "So unlikable." Nevertheless, it wasn't all criticism thrown at the Northern Irish pro, as some supporters came to his defence. Amidst the backlash, a supporter argued, recognising McIlroy's slate of achievements including his career grand slam. "I'm not even a huge fan of Rory but people need to give this dude a break. He doesn't have to prove anything to anyone. He's one a few players alive with a grand slam in his pocket. Let the man be," reports the Mirror US. The European Ryder Cup hero has been making headlines not just for his swings but also for his silence. Last month at the PGA Championship, he made a statement by refusing to speak after each round at Quail Hollow. This followed the revelation that McIlroy had to switch clubs just before the major tournament began because his driver face didn't pass a routine USGA check. When probed about whether the drama over his non-conforming driver influenced his media blackout, he admitted: "I mean, that was a part of it. Yeah, that was a part of it. "But it's not as if -- like at Augusta, I skipped you guys on Thursday, so yeah, again, it's not as if it's not out of the ordinary. I've done it before; I'm just doing it a little more often." McIlroy has faced a challenging time on the course at Oakmont, with even the world's top players struggling against the punishing conditions. On Friday, the 36-year-old had to pull off two late birdies just to stay above the cut line. When asked about his close shave on Saturday, McIlroy candidly said: "It's funny, like it's much easier being on the cut line when you don't really care if you're here for the weekend or not." McIlroy seemed to be looking forward to a swift departure from the championship, saying: "I was sort of thinking, do I really want two more days here or not. So it makes it easier to play better when you're in that mindset." He added: "Hopefully a round in under four and a half hours and get out of here," indicating his desire to wrap up his final round quickly on Sunday, with an early tee time awaiting him as he sits at 10-over with 18 holes remaining.
