Supposedly the release pheromones when squished, which then attracts more of them. Not sure if they are related to stinkbugs!

Soapy water kills them quickly if you need to exterminate them. Just don’t squish them.

Maybe cocoa butter?

I agree, Rings of Power is great! As someone who has read and watched LotR, but not the Silmarillion, I found it a nice step into the lore. I found a lot of it matches up decently with the appendices of LotR, even if the timeline isn’t accurate.

Morning:

• Snooze my alarm at least 3 times.
• Finally wake up, check for notifications and end up scrolling for 15 minutes.
• try to get out of bed but instead snuggle my dog for as long as possible or until she needs to be let outside.
• drink whatever water I have leftover on my bedside table
• get up finally, pee, brush my teeth, wash my face, put on deodorant, do my hair & get dressed
• make a coffee
• leave for work. (If I don’t work, skip steps one and two, and postpone some of step 4 for later)

Evening:

• pour a glass of water for the middle of the night when I get thirsty.
• let the dog out to pee.
• go pee, brush my teeth, wash my face, get undressed.
• grab a handful of kibbles and give my dog brushes while giving her snacks.
• put in lip balm and hand lotion.
• play all the wordle games before midnight
• scroll for a while until I decide I’m tired.
• turn off the light.
• put on an audiobook for 15 minutes and hope I’m asleep before then.
