Changed my life. Can pull up a digital version of any book I'm reading anywhere (like on my laptop in classđ) completely free. Free audiobooks. Upped my literary consumption by at least 75%. Lots of TV and movies too. Unsubscribe from your streaming service. Save $15. Get a library card.
I feel like this is a constant rec on here but it really is such a game changer! First, itâs free. Like, honestly how awesome is it that we can just have access to such a vast amount of great literature, music, movies, articles & newspapers and even free Internet whenever we need it! Donât spend money where you donât need to, get a library card and go crazy. Thereâs also some really great free online services provided via your library card like Kanopy (for movies) and Libby (for books).
You get free printing, subscriptions to tons of newspapers, sometimes even free Adobe??? And lol ... free books, movies and more. Libraries will save us. Get your card!!
It's FREE and depending on your local library system, having a library card also comes with:
- Hoopla: Lets you stream movies and check them out FOR FREE
- Libby: E-book collections so you can read books/magazines/etc for FREE
- Equipment rentals: Some libraries in my hometown have game consoles/musical instruments/etc that patrons can check out
And a bunch of cool stuff The more active patrons there are, the more likely they'll keep their funding! Basically, support your local library! Get a card! Use the services!
I love hand-writing a letter. the delayed gratification of it, talking about anything and nothing, decorating it with cartoons and drawings and stickers. Sending little extras and photographs with tiny micro-playlists scrawled out on the back of it. It takes at least an hour to craft a good letter, one worth receiving and replying to, and it's intimate to think about someone nonstop for that long. I just love that form of communication.
As pi.fyi gains popularity I notice more and more people using it like twitter/trying to hit an algorithm/âtweetdeckingâ recs/memeing so incongruent to me because pi truly feels like a place of respite from all the aforementioned internet behavior. using it to identify and share small joys from your day, talk about things you want more of in your life, share about yourself, explore things youâre curious about ⊠I promise thatâs âgood contentâ. đ«¶
