I find timezones to be difficult. So, I've made a little CLI for interacting with my Outlook calendar. Now I can do something like thallo add 1st december 5pm EST -t "Event Title" to very quickly add an event to my university calendar and have it be in the correct timezone. And you can too:

I absolute love #Zotero but I also hate Zotero. The search feature in particular always felt clunky to me.
