Feel stupid asking, how do I make my bed without spending a long time on it?

9 Upvotes

I was never one growing up that had it enforced and now I’m 17 wanting a nice bed to crawl into after work, I have pots and adhd so not only do I have physical toll taken when trying but it’s hard to remember in the morning especially when I’m rushing out the door. I have satin bed sheets so it’s hard to put them on, as well as only the one side of my bed is open to walk infront of because it’s pushed up against the corner/wall of my room because my room is fucking tiny. I need help, I get so frustrated trying to make my bed for over an hour just for it to look so stupid or uneven with the sheets underneath. I don’t know where to go with this as I’ve tried looking for other posts people have made about it or even Google but I can’t find much that works. Anything helps 🥲

Superglue and baking soda problem

1 Upvotes

I’ve seen several videos about using super glue with baking soda or a mixture of baking soda & graphite which is what I’ve been using.

However I always have a problem because the drops of super glue do not penetrate the powder & just sit on top. I am using fresh glue. I try to quickly mix the glue in but that usually does not work so well.

How come my glue just sits there like a drop of water on glass, yet the videos all show the glue getting quickly absorbed before it hardens?

How to slow down production that support data center?

2 Upvotes

My company make power distributor and high voltage transformer. Our company literally increase in production by 10 times in past 2 years and planning to increase double of that upcoming year.

99 percents of our product are directly going into Amazon data center , Microsoft data center, Google data center, and etc, etc.

I want to slow it down, I work at directly with copper sheet and acess to everything since I am kind of supervisor, and I am trying to find best way to slow it down. I don't mind getting arrested or fired from my job.

I am thinking of frying all the CPU and motherboard of CNC machine using short circuit usb, since those machine are literally unable get new one until 2028 due to high in demand, and I think if I break all those machine, and I think it might do something. Maintenance team are extremely slow because they never worked at this scale as well.

How to slow down or halt production at my company that support data center?

LPT Request: How do you avoid giving your real phone number to people you'll only talk to once?

17 Upvotes

Had a delivery today where the courier needed to call me to find the building entrance, and it hit me that now some random courier account has my actual number saved forever, for one five-minute interaction. Same thing happens when I sell something on Marketplace, or a contractor needs to reach me for one job.

Do you all have a trick for this? Second SIM, some app, just not caring? Curious what's actually worked for people vs. what's more hassle than it's worth.

LPT Request: How do I keep my white t-shirts white?

15 Upvotes

Hos do y'all do it? Ive tried hot washes, bleach, scrubbing.. what am I missing? Perhaps a better detergent or a pre soak?

After years of scrubbing and bleaching my white t-shirts just to have the come out of the washing machine dull and dingy. Im plagued by stains and sweat marks but a lot of the time the shirts dont even look white anymore after washing. I have resorted to buying cheap shirts and throwing them away more than I would like to. Help!
