This post convinced me to go a step further with the videos I saved! Laura is right, the internet (especially anything Google has it's hands on) isn't forever. I liked keeping them in Anytype1 for tagging and notetaking, but this is the perfect opportunity for making more use out of my pocket notebooks. It's easy to...

For years, I've been going back and forth on whether or not I should save up and get an e-reader. I've been able to happily give up on that dream with the help of a matte screen protector + greyscale mode + the Cantook app. Cantook's interface is simple and very customizable. I can change the text's size, colour and...

I'm in a group project, and my prof released the readings late in a database that refuses to log anyone in. My two other group members and I were on a mission to fix the login and access the textbook, but we got the runarounds ... the poor front desk staff told me to email the company.

I accidentally broke the handle for the smoothie machine, then I fixed it. I only ended up getting it for 1.50 (pre-pandemic slushie prices ...)

Desperation emenating out of my pores, my (obvious) insecurities around my lack of socialisation and general "feralness" would drive people away, and my...

Two things that have been working well for me: using parental controls to brick my phone at night. collaborative phone time with my sister. The second one has been really great. my sister and will sit huddled around her phone, or my phone, and we'll look through social media. Getting heated about influencers doing...

... I'm playing around with the idea of making a funnel neck jacket.

I accumulated enough vacation days to take a week off, so I did. It was a pretty great summer experience (and by great, I mean, I think this is the best it's going to get). My team was really nice, and I managed to not be a wuss and make some connections. Enough about work! I'm kind of glad its over. I can focus on...

My beast of a sweet potato. It was sprouting, so I shoved it into the ground. We're both happy with this arrangement. Excuse the weeds - a skunk has been coming in & out of the backyard and I've been too scared to get rid of them. More supermarket produce! These red lettuce look like garnets, but they taste okay....
