it’s a little gentler than a regular alarm sound and bc it’s not a song there’s no fear of getting sick of it. this has been my alarm for like 3 years and i still don’t mind it.
After years of heavy sleeping, Ive now resorted to making my alarms all of my favorite songs, with some awful car alarms mixed in there. it's a nauseating concoction, I know, and so far, to my knowledge, it doesn't work. But ignorance is bliss.
if the text requires more than 3 sentences it’s a voice memo! the efficiency of just getting to speak! the intimacy of sending your voice and the process of gathering your thoughts in real time! the presence of tone and vocal inflection! i actually aspire to only ever communicate via phone calls and voice memos. texting is such a menace in my life.
