Need long term at home facial hair removal ideas

So I am in perimenopause and the facial hair is getting out of control. I usually just tweeze but between the new growth and my kids losing my tweezers ( mostly my kids losing my tweezers) I can't keep up with it. So I'm looking for other solutions. My ideal looks like: works on peach fuzz, lasts at least a week, can be done easily at home, is safe for sensitive skin, can be used on my neck and earlobe ( yes I have earlobe hair. It's crazy.) would not cause chemical burns or anything similar, and bonus points if it's super easy to do.

Any suggestions?

Chain keeps falling off

The chain keeps falling off of my son's cruiser bike. He set the back tire back and it helped for a while. I am wondering if at this point we need to shorten the chain or if there is another fix.

Beans, beans, beans...

*edit*

my kids are teens with full bodily autonomy. I blend beans into sauces, but with their knowledge. They can and do decide what goes in their bodies without force. Also, I thought it was clear with the mashed potatoes comment, but obviously not, they do not like the texture of mashed beans, so no refried beans no matter the type of bean. Thanks though for the great and unique ideas. We will give some a try and hopefully land on something they like.

I am looking for ways to make beans that my kids won't hate. They don't like the texture (silly kids, they don't even like the texture of mashed potatoes) and they don't like the taste. They don't even enjoy a good chili. I would love any ideas to help them at least tolerate beans since beef is so outrageously expensive right now.

Is it worth the cost?

Has anyone tried this set? What were the results? Is it worth the expense, or is there a comparable drug store version?

Savory oatmeal ideas

Here's how I make my oatmeal in the mornings:

I used rolled oats and add a small amount of chia seeds, hemp hearts, and basil seeds. I add salt and pepper and drop an egg in the middle. I then add boiling water and microwave the whole thing for about a minute or until the egg is cooked.

I have tried topping with shredded cheese, but I don't like the texture. I tried everything bagel seasoning, but I'm not a huge fan of garlic with eggs. I have also tried rice seasoning, and it wasn't bad, just underwhelming.

What else should I try? I don't want to cook my oats a different way, just want ideas for different toppings.

Need tips on cleaning this air return register

I can't reach this well enough to take it down. I have a long reach cleaning tool, but the pads aren't doing a great job of cleaning it. My vacuum hose won't reach that far, and I don't think anything I can spray will reach either. I would appreciate any tips to clean it.

Lucid dreaming as a spell?

I am lucky enough to be able to lucid dream almost whenever I want. I saw something the other day about using lucid dreaming as a type of spell. Has anyone tried it? Any tips/tricks?

Mother's day spell

Any spells you can recommend to honor my dead mom for mother's day? She died when I was little and have no memories of her. I am looking for something that could possibly involve roses, but doesn't involve the Christian prayer that came up when I googled it. I could write a letter, but I would like something a little more involved. I cannot visit her grave as it is more than 15 hours away. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

My teen son has wavy, high porosity hair. It just gets frizzy and hard to brush. We have tried several different shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks. Tonight we did an oil treatment. It hardly made a dent. We are going to start the LOC method, but I am wondering if there is a mask or something heavy duty we should try. He's getting frustrated and wants to cut his hair, but he loves having long hair so I would rather fix it than cut it all off. He sleeps in a bonnet, dries his hair on a cotton tshirt. He is also going to start shampooing less and using conditioner if he needs to refresh his hair during the week. I also braid his hair in a loose braid at night to reduce frizz and tangling. Anything else we need to do? My hair is the complete opposite of his, so I am a bit out of my depth.
