This might be a bit of a weird one but I'm genuinely glad I bought a Sodastream. Cost me $70 AUD, but now I can make sparkling water whenever I want and am now drinking a lot more water which has helped clear up my skin and improved my overall health, mood and productivity. What purchases have you made that improved your life? It doesn't have to be expensive, just whatever.

you need to keep your feet dry is all
do daily/bi-daily feet cleaning
vinegar/bicarb or water/iodine, or even alcohol if you absolutely must, if you have fungi(almost everyone does have some)
make sure to really scrub inbetween, underneath and all the edges of your toenails where the fungi is probably starting
get a pumice stone, one of the real volcanic ones with a lifetime guarantee
get better shoes and socks, make sure your feet aren't getting cool sweat over the course of the day, if they are, find out which ones work for your environment

This one time I took the sodastream bottle at a dead party about 3:30 am and filled it full of sick shit and gave it some pumps. took it upstairs to a bedroom with a couple passed out college randos. I stuck two mentos in the bottle, shook it and hucked it in the room.

Yea. There's the "glove" method where you pet them both with the same glove - like a knitted glove and help establish a pack scent. Then there's the under the door techniq where you let them meet one another by sniffing under a door as a barrier so they don't get too fired up. I've had success with a kitten being introduced to an older cat and less success with two adults but they are reasonable pals these days. Nothing like the kitten and the older one were tho
