It’s free and allows you to track your workouts! There’s basically every exercise you can think of already in its system, and if they don’t have what you need, you can just custom make it! It’s also got diagrams/ instructions for most of the lifts, so if you don’t know how a machine works, or the mechanics of a specific lift, you can just look it up on the app! Incredibly helpful for staying with your fitness goals and seeing the progress you‘re making!

This has been my gym since lockdown. Plug in what equipment you have (none is an option), your experience level, and it assembles a workout tailored for you.
It keeps track of you experience and gradually increases the difficulty. And also tracks what muscle groups you’ve used and let’s you know what needs to rest.

I've been using this workout app called Hevy, for about a year now and it's been amazing. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to start working out but feels like they wouldn't know what to do. When I first started going to the gym, I was googling every workout until I knew how to do them on my own.
Hevy has all the exercises with video demonstrations and you can filter them by the muscles they target. If you do any exercises at home or outdoors, you can create your own exercises and add them to the app. It even tells you what weights you could move up based on previous workouts.
You basically create your own workout plans and track your progress.
There's also a social aspect of the app where you can follow friends and try their workout plans or anyone else who you feel has the same fitness goals.
Sometimes I’ll get a notification that a friend just posted a workout and it’ll motivate me to wanna go more. And the records and encouragement slides they do are pretty cool. Definitely worth checking out.

A website with a collection of screengrabs from nearly every movie you could think of, and you can sort by film title, director, cinematographer, year, genre, country, etc. Great for visual references for lookbooks, or just to discover a new film you might be interested in seeing!
I've attached one of my favorite stills, a great moment from Chungking Express (Dir. Wong Kar-Wai, 1994).

At my local indie cinema for a projection of the new Nosferatu, infinitely grateful I have a place like this I can go to see new stuff and incredible programming!

Just going out and picking up any kind of used physical media (books, CDs, DVDs, cassette tapes) makes the archivist in me happy, like I’m preserving somebody else’s story/ enjoyment of something
My personal favorite thing is VHS tapes, I’ve got a decent collection (all thrifted) and they’re usually the cheapest things offered
