I would even suggest reading the wikipedia article as a good place to start. It gives you an overview of the topic, lets you formulate questions you might have and want to research into (note them down), and then start with their sources but don't feel constrained by them.

Shaking hands spreads way more gems than talking.

Never had a better cleanse for any type of stain than Folex. White bottle, purple letters. Seems cheap because it doesn’t have a flashy bottle, but it’s taken out every stain I’ve come across

Reply to LPT: Heated blanket UNDER the sheets by ScoobyScience
Spouse just got me a heated mattress cover and I love it! Went from being piled so high with blankets that I could hardly move to having a sheet and comforter like a normal person (spouse likes to sleep in a cold room). Might you, this is meant to go under the fitted sheet. Make sure yours is too or there may be a fire risk.

But i think it's not your problem what ppls like to talk about, so "evaluate your priorities", dress up your mask;)

All you have to do is pull the stained fabric up and twist it until it resembles the shape of a straw. Then, insert it into your butthole.

Soak it in straight Bronner's liquid soap for an hour then go at it with a toothbrush with some water. Bronner's soap seems to work on everything! Good luck

Why is shaking someone’s hand a dirty practice but talking face to face with a person is not?

Three part improvement over a standard overhand bow:
-
u/evoic's good idea - two passes for the overhand knot instead of one. When you cinch that down it will actually stay put. This is called a surgeon's knot and it's LPT in all sorts of situations.
-
Make the bow the opposite way of the overhand knot. This turns the whole thing into a square knot. The end result is the bow "ears" hanging pretty, too.
-
When you go around your bow "ear", do that twice. The double bow will hold a lot better.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND. This saved my marriage. At the height of the pandemic I was like IDGAF we’re hiring a cleaning service. They come every two weeks and I’d give up a lot before I’d give up Maria and her amazing crew.

Scholarly work should not use Wikipedia as a source but the sources wiki uses can be a great starting point. I 100% agree.
I used to tell my students that Wikipedia is great for general information since the site has clamped down on the whole editing process, and made it much more difficult to add misinformation without sources.
For non-scholarly work, Wikipedia is amazing. It’s the end all, be all of all arguments and general information about organizations and people. I think because schools say you can’t cite it, many people don’t trust Wikipedia. I’d trust it over most news sites (except AP and Reuters).

I use vinegar on stinky pillowcases and it works- maybe try a YouTube search for downfilled cleaning though

Make a square knot.
When you initially cross the laces to make the first knot note which lace was on top. Did you tie right over left or left over right. Then for the 2nd knot with loops do the opposite.
For example if the first knot was left over right then the 2nd knot should be right over left.

Your fiancé has the right idea for keeping a clean house.
Generally it takes a minute or two to keep things in a clean condition (loading the dishes as you use them) versus taking longer when you wait to do a “deeper clean” (waiting to load dishes until the end of the day).
Plus cooking in a clean kitchen is just so nice lol
