Tourists, hot tip, this is the best thing Romania had to offer so far: papanași.

Jeg prøver lige, om ikke det er godt at rette opgaver til. #hottip

following the @vagina_museum has enriched my vocabulary immensely and is a proper timeline cleanser too #hottip

OK: time for a #Mastodon #Lists #HotTip

The default web browser view shows only four lists -- but you can have more (I have yet to find the upper limit, but there probably is one)

So by prepending 00_ 01_ 02_ 03_ to your list title, you can control which lists show in the order you want in the default web browser view

Remember: they're all there at the Lists link -- this just puts your most used lists in easy view

Happy Friday #BayArea and beyond!

A couple of pics from the week. We managed to survive #Snowmaggedon California style. Mt. Hamilton is beautiful from my neighborhood at 10x zoom on my #Pixel7Pro

Daffodils are going crazy in my #yard. Lots of other stuff getting ready to join them.

Hi wind and crazy rain out here today!

Hey #SF #BayArea, road conditions are crazy out here. Lots of puddles forming that could cause problems for you on the road.

#DontDrownTurnAround before trying to go through anything that covers the entire road.

#HotTip use the middle lane if possible. Puddles tend to form in the slow and fast lanes

If you really really need something and don't want to go out, #Doordashers like me are out here to help.

#HotTip if you’re going to make a video to be feature on broadcast TV, film on the horizontal…! We still predominantly use horizontal TVs and your vertical video will make us feel like a horse with the peripheral vision blocked!

#HotTip Diagramming is essential in my work, and we have #LucidChart licences for a few of us, but I've started using the #OpenSource alternative https://www.diagrams.net/

The best part, it's XML driven so It can be version controlled in #git and you don't need to even sign up to start using it.

#HotTip if you are using #pipedream to create #notion database rows (aka pages).

Use the `
create_page_from_database
`, **NOT** `create_page`.

Sort'a obvious if you know the Notion API, otherwise very confusing.

laundry reminds me so my #HotTip for domestic living and just general household goodness is

you see that dr. bronner's soap? the big squirt bottle?

yeah just buy one and keep it around. trust me.

if you want to wash something but you're not sure what kind of soap or cleaner to use, chuck in.... the dr. bronner's.

it's very gentle castile soap. so i'm not going to say it's the absolute best for assblasting grime straight off your kitchen floor. but if you're worried you don't have the right special soap, it will be a safe choice for just about everything that you can reasonably wash with soap.

and i do mean EVERYTHING. your kitchen floor. your laundry. (really good if you're hand-washing!) your pots and pans. your windowsill. your fancy silk scarves. your dental appliance. your kitchen sink. your hair. your dog. (ok, be careful with the dog, some essential oils aren't good for critters so you have to be careful about what scent you use. the teatree is a no-go. the other scents though? yeah just lather fido right up) hell, you can even brush your teeth with this shit. it's also pretty great if you find yourself in a "oh shit, i'm out of [regular cleaner], but i really need to clean this thing, what can i use as a stopgap measure so i can get out to the store".

just maybe don't do a full replacement of everything at once with dr bronner's soap lest you find yourself in peppermint hell, like this writer for vice https://www.vice.com/en/article/4w5web/dr-bronners-soap-for-everything

just keep some around. it's pretty potent stuff so you don't have to use very much (being, you know, pure liquid soap), so that 8 dollar big bottle from target is going to last you.

plus it's covered in writing that is mildly entertaining to read, so if you forget your phone and you're bored as you sit there pooping, dr bronners has GOT YOUR BACK
