Clean sheet night

I anticipate the shit out of Sunday nights when I‘ve washed the sheets and blankets and freshly made the bed and get to squeeze into my tightly tucked bed envelope. plus, the opportunity to do the short sheet prank on my partner.

Fresh sheets as often as possible

You’ll feel clean & refreshed each time you roll into bed. Have 3+ bed sheet sets on hand for an easy constant rotation of joy and happiness.

learn to scrape the internet

you people seem cool so i try to avoid too much nerd/code/tech talk but here we go anyway. 🤓 one of the most useful skills i have acquired as a coder is the ability to steal things from the internet. there is so much stuff on the web that you ostensibly are supposed to pay for, but with a little coding know-how you can scrape the relevant data, download it to your computer, keep it forever and never pay a dime for it. Or maybe pay for it once but be able to cancel your ongoing subscription to it. I have used this skill to steal / borrow / archive: - workout videos from a paid yoga app - cocktail recipes - food recipes - music - library books - instructional materials - graphical source material for making art Depending on what you’re doing, this can require more or less technical skill, but likely less than you expect. this is also a thing that chatgpt is very good at walking you through, if you ask it for help. it feels especially rewarding to learn a new skill in service of saving yourself money, too. Even if the content in question is free, it’s nice to know you’ll have it for eternity even if a provider goes out of business, and it enables you to search/organize/manage the content however you like (with no ads, paywalls, etc). it’s a useful exercise in digital literacy that demystifies a little bit of the technical world that surrounds us, and it always gives me a thrilling little frisson of “civil disobedience” or at least naughtiness.

ios animated stickers

so first of all, if you didnt know, you can press and hold on stuff in a photo on your phone and create "stickers" you can send in imessage. but i just discovered you can press and hold on a "live photo" and get an animated sticker i am going to be so annoying in chats with this feature (I don't think pi.fyi supports gifs/animations so visit link to see example)
