So that’s where my foreskin went

5 is like an honorary even number.

Play Factorio. The time will go by much quicker, and you’ll feel productive and unproductive simultaneously.

What has helped me convince my friends is to mention the features and not mention the privacy. Most people care about features and convenience but don’t care at all about privacy. When I’m trying to convince my friends to switch to Signal, I usually say something along the lines of “it’s like iMessage for Android” and give a small demonstration of the features.

I do several things in conjunction.

1. I plan when I need to go sleep using either sleepyti.me or wakeupti.me and set my alarms accordingly. Setting your alarm to align with your sleep patterns makes the act of waking up much easier.

2. I set my phone on my desk away from my bed. The reasoning is two-fold; it forces me to get up and out of bed to dismiss my alarm(This works extra well if you make it a habit to get dressed as soon as you’re out of bed.), and it prevents me from laying in bed while playing on my phone.

3. I wake up at the same time every day. Consistency is paramount managing sleep.

4. I only sleep in my bed. I don’t do anything else. This builds an association to automatically get sleepy when you get in bed because the only thing you in bed is sleep. Your brain knows what to expect and just does it. Sort of like how some guys get excited when they see their girlfriend tie her into a ponytail.

This is a song that makes me want to move my hips.

Not anymore after they got acquired

Entreat - verb - ask someone earnestly and anxiously to do something

It’s a handy word that kind of combines “pleading” and “asking”. It’s a bummer it fell out of style because I can think of many scenarios where it would fit perfectly.

Yes, but I can never type in the password correctly. So I don’t get to use it when it does appear.

Is that the moose and his flying squirrel friend?

School was canceled due to the poor road conditions, so I had fun at home. My '94 ford ranger doesn’t traction control or winter tires, so I drifted around my front lawn.

As someone who used to be into cubing, I find it immensely amusing that it’s one of the few hobbies where the Chinese off-brand is actually better than the original name brand. My main cube was a Moyu Weilong GTS2M.

I’m certain there are more; these are just the ones I watch.

My piano technique book from 1960 I purchased from a second hand store. I bought it and have been teaching myself piano.

Checkout Quad9 and NextDNS. I use NextDNS. The free tier NextDNS account is more than ample; I’ve never come close to exceeding it.

Password manager like Bitwarden. I’d rather they take care of it for me. The consequences would be too great if I messed it up.
