As an adult who has just sacrificed a box room for a Boaxel system with a bunch of open boxes to toss my clothes into (similar to your shelf system but visually less messy), I don’t understand why you can’t go back to a system that worked for you before.

Laundry is also my mortal enemy. The folding mostly, so now I’ve done away with that. Little basket things on each shelf for various clothing items, it’s much more aligned to my natural style. Use it, don’t fight it.

    Grew up in the US (the Deep South)… moved to England, have been here for like a bajillion years and unfortunately still sound American 😕

    But for me it is crisps. Why do we have to say this word when it is so awkward?!?

    Sort of okay? I found out I didn’t get one job I interviewed for but got invited to a second interview for another one (although the pay isn’t as good).

    The first place said that they are about to launch a new role that would suit me though so I must’ve done something okay?

    I find interviews so hard… anyone else with ADHD out there that has any tips? 😅😅

    If price were the only issue sure, but there are a many other problems - oh you went to the ER? Or you picked a specific hospital/surgeon for something? Too bad, this one doctor isn’t in network.

    You can only have a specific version of a medication because another is ineffective or you have an allergy or adverse reaction? Well that sucks, your insurance only covers this one type.

    Your doctor ordered a specific set of tests? Your insurer can decide that they’re not medically necessary and overrule your doctor.

    And so on… when the required amount of regulation is so vast that it touches every part of the system because it is just that bad…. Surely universal healthcare is the better option at that point?

    Have seen this firsthand at the place I work, but for backfills, not even additional staff (haha as if they would increase headcount)…. But the trick really is that they’re hiring temp heads in an attempt to outsource more roles without making redundancies.

    Edit: Somehow this has sorted itself out despite me not changing anything.

    Hopefully this is the right community for this as it’s definitely to do with a Siri shortcut setup… I’ll preface this by saying that I am not the best with stuff like this but I am so confused as to how it stopped working.

    I set up a shortcut to add to a notion database a few weeks ago (to track exercise/playtime for my puppy) in an attempt to make tracking a bit easier. It took me a while to set up as I’ve not got any experience with any coding language, but I got it working! Until yesterday, when I started to get an Invalid Request URL error when trying to submit a new entry.

    Notion API connection looks okay when I check that in Notion.

    Here is what I’m submitting:

    • URL (Notion API URL) https://api.notion.com/v1/pages/
    • Checked authorisation today (secret API key matches what Notion says)
    • database ID is fine (checked again today, this is set up under ‘parent’ in the below screenshot)
    • no structural changes to the database since this was set ip
    • Notion API version hasn’t changed

    I really don’t understand how I am suddenly getting this error after the shortcut working fine for a few weeks with tens of entries made!! Any ideas are welcome 😊
