"things don't seem to be working out, we should probably take a trip" is terrible advice

Reply to LPT Request: How to get rid of dandruff? by ImThour
wash ur hair everyday with shampoo (that has protein) and twice a week use a really strong dandruff shampoo or over the night scalp treatment. These usually contain salicylic acid and ketoconazole.
Here are the one's I use. Noskruf lotion - twice a week (apply on scalp overnight and wash in the morning) Trigaine shampoo - Everyday
Also use a conditioner everyday to keep your hair from getting stiff.

Reply to comment by Alucard624 in LPT: Use a damp cloth to remove dead pixels from your tv or monitor screen! by Alucard624
I believe they were asking about how a video itself could fix the dead pixel, not a video describing how to fix the issue.

Who is 'they'? Ask them! Or call the fire department about your concern.

No, it went from doing fine to being on fire. Thankfully it stopped because back then I had no idea how to handle that! Towels smelled burned too, awful.

You use it on the ducting, maybe search for dryer brush drill kit. They also have drill brushes for scrubbing that come in super handy too for cleaning.

I definitely recommend submitting a maintenance request to get your apartments exhaust pipe cleaned, and start requesting it at least once a year

Thank you. I initially read this post as, “If you’re considering self harm, do a line or two of cocaine instead.”

Reply to comment by [deleted] in LPT: Cyberstalking is a very serious thing and just as bad as (if not worse than) physical stalking. If you know of someone engaging in cyberstalkering, you have an obligation to tell them to stop. by AdSnoo9734
Actually, no. It's something everyone should know and a general awareness is a really good thing. But maybe it's just not the right sub for this topic.

Reply to LPT: Admitting when you are wrong, directly and succinctly, is not only being a great teammate, but also a great way to determine friend from foe in the workplace. by AdministrativeAct902
I make tons of mistakes at my jobs. Most are very small abd can be fixed easily. Ive never gotten anywhere lying about it or blaming someone else. I always just say I screwed up and how can I prevent this in the future.
You can't learn if you dont make mistakes.

This isn’t good advice if your manager is one of the people who would highlight and attach your name to it.

Add something like this?
"so contact your elected representative (or whatever is equivalent in your country) asking them to ensure that the Police are empowered to be able to treat both crimes equally"

Be cautious of blanket advice like this. A partner who desires that you spend a portion of time together just as a couple is not necessarily doing it for control. A partner who can help you recognize toxic influences from your family or existing social circles and wishes to help you get away from them can be a very good thing. If you are losing touch with friends and feeling isolated, then definitely conversations need to be had, and counseling may be necessary. A good partner will be open to it and accept that the relationship may need rebalancing. If those conversations are fruitless, or counseling is rejected then consider Ging TFO.

the thing about the gym is - it keeps you motivated. and it forces you to work out. yes it's a hassle going there bur once you're there - you're there to work out. if you're at home it's easy to push it off or get distracted. Not to mention - you have a much wider variety of excersises you can do at the gym. plus you're taught technique. and many people enjoy the social aspect of it. since cobid shutdown many people have been locked inside their homes and don't get out enough. getting a few weights might work for some but I think for most people they just sit in the garage and never get used.
