I don't know who needs to hear this*, but when you're washing dishes, you need to wash all the surfaces of every dish. The top and bottom of the plate, the inside and outside of the pot, the tines and handle of the fork, etc.
Grease and germs get everywhere. You can't see or feel them when the dish is wet. washing just the parts you think came into contact with food means you're leaving the dish dirty.

Just taught a programmer friend that you can download the Libby app, request a library card if you don't already have one, and check out audiobooks for free

Confirming that this works. But yeah, pour gently.

How to Counter Provocation and Rumor:

Are there effective responses to being provoked, picked on, blamed, attacked? Absolutely—but they’re not all being taught or shared a lot. A few quotes that I’ve found useful.

Life hack: when an open WiFi (or maybe a website) demands your email address for access, go into your spam folder and grab an email address in the From field. Worked for me so far.

Too cold to get out of bed, but I have to pee. We’ll see how this plays out

@FlockOfCats the faster you get up and go pee the faster you can get back into bed while it’s still warm #LifeHacks

My solution to curb phone distractions and safeguard my data: I offload distracting apps (and those by companies I don't trust) to an old, empty smartphone with a different Apple ID.

I wrote about my system here: https://newsletter.therealists.org/my-sandboxed-candy-bar-smartphone-curbing-distractions-and-safeguarding-privacy/

Oh and I also have a phone "prison" for this second smartphone!

What do you do with your ashes from fire pit?

We save some for the garden but most go in the house

We put them, after they cool off completely, into mesh bags and then in containers with holes in them to suck up bad odor in rooms

Also, if you ever have an empty house, apartment, etc, plain charcoal will keep that vacant house smell at bay as it will suck the odor into the charcoal

Great odor control for nonenal smelling households, too, like geriatric or homebound homes. We do it #LifeHacks

Starting to learn about autistic burnout. Anyone else experience this, have advice, or just want to commiserate?

I also have arthritis learned recently that pain tolerance can lower while in burnout. Doesn’t that make arthritis a cycle of burnout? Or I mean cyclical.

I remember the time Life Hacks were a pretty cool thing you can find on the internet. Than 5 minutes crafts and friends came around like I hurricane and gave Life Hacks the worst wrap possible. We click on clickbaite and that's why we can't have nice things, kids.

Whatever. Give me one actually useful Life Hack you do in your day to dY life. Bonus points of you came up with it yourself.

@mayaisloading You can buy extension tube for $20 on Amazon that go from your soap pump directly into your dish soap container. They come with multiple lids to find the right size. They also have check valves to keep the soap from draining back into the jug. That's why you can't just buy the tube. This one: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0CLD7DFF9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

#Tip for very cold #weather: face #masks help not only against viruses. If you have no ski mask, take a chirurgical one. You can even cut small holes for your nose against the freezing condensation (if you wear glasses).

One way I like to fain productivity around this time of year is to say “another job done” anytime I finish a packet of something.

Wednesday Life Hack.
Always keep a potato masher in a drawer. Because 'will-the-drawer-open?' roulette is as fun as Russian roulette but without the jeopardy.

I usually follow back, and really appreciate boosts.

Deciding and setting your intention has a huge impact on your results.

With that in mind, what is your theme for the week?
