If the oil and soy doesn't work, try cheap beer. Will get earwigs and slugs for sure, but might work on other parts as well. They also work better if you sink them into the ground so their lip is almost level with the soil or cover. Makes it more likely that they will find it and fall in.

You're probably gonna have to experiment a bit. For baking and more delicate things probably the listed fan temp, but for things like roasted potatoes it doesn't matter as much.

It is just little tricks for entertainment/practice. So you could do the table smack, but it would be obvious you were casting a spell to do it, and the mark would fade after the spell wore off. It was never really meant to have serious utility. There are feats that can help remove component requirements, which could help with stealth, as it's usually the verbal/somatic bits that give you away. That being said, being able to douse/light candles and lamps is pretty handy. You can temporarily mark locations or routes for allies, or use the same to confuse or mislead someone, at least within the hour duration. There are probably tons of more creative uses out there if you do a little forum digging.

Nitrile gloves have been shown to offer a bit more protection against isocyanates than latex. If you're just worried about mess and aren't allergic, then probably doesn't matter.

I think for a lot of people part of the fantasy is getting to be someone else.

The photosites are continuously reading the light falling on them. When you take a picture, the system takes discreet readings of those values for the length of your shutter speed. However it can only handle the information from a portion of the sensor at a time. So it reads in sequential stripes. The longer the exposure time the more of a chance that the sensor or the subject has moved before the camera reads all the stripes.

Tomatoes don't like being wet, so you have to take care when watering. Shouldn't be misting or spraying them, just water their soil directly. Also make sure there is good airflow around them.
