I don’t know why but I love doing this with everything from long reads to restaurant menus. It’s just so handy having things to return to in static form; I like to keep them in the Books app. On an iPhone if you select print, you can select the range of pages you want to include and then save from the printer dialogue screen

could also print them and bring them on outings to free yourself from the shackles of our smartphones ! you get the articles/webpages you want to read without the distractions being on the phone brings

taterhole very real but i think we should all make an effort to escape the digital world whenever possible. but im also saying this while typing on a phone so ill admit im a bit of a hypocrite... mostly just hoping i dont come off as sanctimonious (first time using this fancy word ! but its very fitting for what im trying to say) too often people are extremists about phone avoidance. theyre not little demon boxes but theyre not the answer to a happy life eithe. its mostly about balance really, if you wanna read on ur phone and spend a lot of time on it thats fine ! the healthy balance point is to not let it become something you depend on. not that i think u do or anything 😛 this is just the type of thing i feel very passionate about and im nothing if not a yapper who expands on conversations unasked hehe

I was about to comment “shouldn’t you use a read-it-later service like Instapaper, Pocket, etc.” but this is actually a better more permanent strategy. You’re freezing that article in time with a “hard copy” and a save to a read later service is subject to the winds of a changing internet.

I do this with the articles I want to read and then sit down a read a bunch all at once! It’s such a vibe.

I can't tell you how much I love this app. It's a note taking app, but everytime you enter it, it creates a blank document. it makes it seamless to get thoughts out asap!!! It's super basic and bare bones, but having a blank digital document ready as soon as you click the app seriously makes all the difference! They automatically save and sync to your computer if you have the app on your desktop too, so it's easy to sort through and find things.

It lends a reflective and wistful tone to written communications imo…

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
