Good morning life hackers,

This is 1000 Life Hacks, the daily newsletter that helps you improve your life each and every day… even if that’s just a little bit. 🥳

Hack of the day: No dryer sheets? Throw in two tin foil balls for static-free clothes every time.

Here’s what’s on the menu today:

While using laser toy with cats place a treat somewhere on the floor when the cat isn't looking. After doing some laser-play, allow the cat to "catch" the dot which you have directed to the treat. It gives them a sense of catching pray and is beneficial to their mental health, as opposed to never "catching" anything. 

Shredding cheese can be a breeze with a simple trick! If you're gearing up for a recipe that demands a mountain of shredded goodness, pop the cheese into the freezer for just 30 minutes beforehand.

The cold magic will make shredding a quicker, smoother experience, saving you from the frustration of chunky cheese mishaps. Plus, the bonus? Cleanup becomes a walk in the park. So, freeze, shred, and enjoy your cooking adventure with less hassle!

Your average bar should be cleaning their beer taps about every 2 weeks. Most places don't do this, and the best way to tell if they aren't clean is by the taste of your beer.

Dirty taps give your beer an aftertaste like stale popcorn, from a build up of a chemical called diacetyl that is used to flavour popcorn. So if your beer ever tastes like stale popcorn, get the heck out of there! 

More links tomorrow!

That’s all for today. I hope your day is at least just a little bit better after reading.
