Read The Boston Globe's investigation into child sexual abuse by Catholic priests.
The newspaper won a Pulitzer Prize for its coverage of child sexual abuse by Catholic priests, and the subsequent cover-up. You can begin reading stories about the investigation here.
Nap
Seek out the perfect hiding spot in your office (or maybe you're at home!), steal someone's blanket or oversized coat, make sure the spot is equipped with pillows, and sleep.
Watch 'Spotlight'
Spotlight, last year's Oscar winner for best picture, is a movie about the Globeinvestigation mentioned above. It is longer than Yiannopoulos's press conference is likely to be (if it happens), but almost certainly more interesting.
