We have a house full of long hair and pet hair so our vacuum brush needs cleaned often. A stitch ripper takes only a few seconds to have the brush totally clean.

I learned this when i applied vaseline on my lips and noticed it wasn't doing anything for my dried lips until i found out what an occlusive is, now i use lip balm and water only and i get so many compliments on my lips now.

I traveled recently, and got a fancy hotel for once at a huge discount, (In the USA.) They provide a shuttle service for free at any time within 3 miles, which would be less than rideshares/taxis/renting a car. They have free breakfast (like a lot of hotels, but the food is better.) They provide free toothbrushes, water bottles, and other amenities. They also can sometimes provide discounts for other local attractions. Upgrading for like a hundred dollars (USD) a night is cheaper than paying for all of those other things.
EDIT: As some people mentioned below, a good mid-tier hotel is more what I'm talking about and has more for free. I'm broke so I t

I'm not certain how accurate the figure is but Malcolm Gladwell has said anywhere up to 80% of decisions made in companies are wrong. And yet many of them still exist. It is through hard-won experience I can confidently claim that the people who heap pressure onto you to get things done, competently and quickly will just shrug and carry on with their day when you fail to meet that deadline. There's a lot more tolerance for failure than managers will ever admit and the more comfortable you can be with failure the less your personal life and mental health will suffer.
There is of course a limit, and in countries where workers have fewer rights there will be

Whenever I feel overwhelmed, I try to release my thoughts. I’m surprised that many of my friends don’t know about this. Here’s 3 ways I do it
1. Paper
If I’m somewhere without my phone or laptop, I just write it down on whatever’s available like paper, notebook etc. No structure, just unload
2. Recording
If I have my phone nearby, I type a quick note or record a voice memo. I used to just talk into the Apple Notes app
3. AI (only if you’re comfortable with it)
Lately I talk with chatGPT a lot as a way to release personal thoughts and it also tell me what should I do to deal with it. For work related stuffs, I talk

Hi! I recently got out of a situation where mold was present in my apartment and when I moved to my new place, I noticed a lot of my "non-washable" items have a musty/moldy smell. None of the items made direct contact with the mold or have visible mold, but they smell kinda bad. I've noticed it's mostly my porous plastic/polyester items that got impacted the most.
For example, my laptop bag, my Nintendo switch case, desk mouse pad, my north face outer shell jacket, backpack, and polyester woven organizers all smell of my old apartment. I really don't want to throw away some of these things since there is no mold present, but maybe there is a way I c

hi everyone i was wondering if there are certain words i can add to the end of my full name in my gmail email address and be able to use this email for everything — whether that be personal or professional endeavours. sadly i deleted the email that had only my full name when i was 13. 😬 i don’t really like using numbers because i feel like no matter the number i choose, people are going to think it means something specific like a year or age… thanks! 😊

I work 12 hour shifts on an assembly line, and getting through the shifts is brutal. Most of the common suggestions don't work in my case. I can't talk to anyone there as nobody is talkative; many of them don't want to speak at all, regardless of language or experiences or anything. There's often a 3-hour period where not a word of conversation is uttered by anyone on the entire factory floor (including two assembly lines and a testing area). There were only two people who wanted to hold a conversation there, and they both quit two weeks ago.

If you walk on a routine (lunch break, dog walks) take it in reverse every now end then. Recently I've been doing lunch break strolls with a colleague and I asked her if she wanted to go right (instead of left, reversing the path) because the stroll will feel different and you'll see things you haven't noticed before. She was amazed every time she saw something she hadn't noticed before wondering how she missed them.

I have a presentation next Monday and while I've given many presentations in the past, I still don't know how to deal with the stress that comes with waiting for my presentation to start. Sometimes I wish I could just give my presentation right now before stress builds up and I get anxious.
