Sometimes when I have a headache, I take Midol instead of Tylenol as a little treat. It has caffeine, which is often helpful, and *just* enough antihistamine to relax me into a nice floaty feeling without making me drowsy. Delightful!

(And it contains no hormones or anything like that; people of any sex/gender can take it despite it being marketed as a menstrual-pain thing.) #LifeProTip #LPT

Random tip I keep forgetting to pass on - if you're thinking of buying something but aren't sure it'll do what you need and can't quite get the detail from reviews, go to the manufacturer's website and download the manual! One of the benefits the internet has given us 🙂 #LPT

#lpt - write documentation early - expanding the documentation of setuptools_scm created so much extra spots for enhancements - writing simply shows blind pots

#LPT You can pair some Bluetooth headphones to the new #Chromecast #GoogleCast devices and quietly watch a show while your baby is sleeping. #ParentingHacks #NapTrapped

I guess it’s not today. Couldn’t find why strobe on #centronics port wouldn’t go low on pr#1 (😂how to escape that) #apple2 #lpt #retrocomputing

#LPT: When your laptop complains that it's low on battery, take note. When it's dead, it's dead.

LPT: Buy a pack of NFC tags, program them to link to product manuals and stick them on your things.

Don't drop your keys in the toaster. Pain to get out.

Will I actually get to send everything to payroll this morning without being constantly interrupted? Who knows.

I’ll be using my #LPT today - in a shared office put headphones on (which isn’t uncommon to see in our office) - I never have anything on but it helps create a visual of ‘hey looks like nick is busy maybe I’ll pester the shit out of him later on’

J'ai commis avec les meilleures des intentions une micro agression il y a environ un mois et au lieu de venir m'expliquer qu'un terme que j'avais utilisé pouvait être interprété comme misogyne pour que je présente mes excuses (l'anglais n'est pas ma langue maternelle), on a été se plaindre directement auprès de mon directeur de thèse. Cette approche aura été contreproductive, car ma première réaction aura été de me braquer... #lpt

#Today I returned to work after 3 weeks off, and updated the magnet display! #LPT

#personalFinance #LPT: make a payment on your credit card weekly, instead of when you get a statement. Put it on your calendar.
Benefits: ① you know your balance, ② your payments can be small (1/4), and ③ your credit score will benefit.

#LPT: if you can't find your comb, a #Furminator feels awesome on short hair.

Good morning Mastodon! Monday after the time change is always rough, but we'll be fine. Remember, give it about 50% effort throughout the week so you have some energy left for the weekend. #LPT

#LPT - do not put a glue stick in the same pocket you usually keep chapstick.

I get so jealous of all the cool educational toys that #KidsTheseDays have. The 80s were wild, but still...

Is that why people have children? So they have an excuse to buy awesome toys?

#LPT you don't have to have kids to play with toys. You can be a #BigKid for as long as you'd like. #TreatYourself

Please connect me asap to get maximum vitamins!
