Yeah I have a "nextlist" that I maintain in a Todoist project, that just lists the next book, game, movie, show, podcast, etc.

I add to it and rearrange priorities occasionally, but it's super nice to have when I get into that analysis paralysis you describe.

System shock 2.

Ever since covid hit, I've been keeping digital copies of several books like the following:

  • Reader's Digest DIY Manual
  • The Forager's Harvest - A Guide to Identifying Harvesting and Preparing Edible Wild Plants by Samuel Thayer
  • The Complete Guide to Edible Wild Plants
  • Back to Basics - Abigail R. Gehring And of course a copy of Wikipedia.

I haven't gone full "prepper", but seeing how fast things went sideways at the beginning of covid, it makes me feel a little better to set aside a little bit of hard drive space, just in case.

I use the free version of Todoist. I don't know what features google tasks all as now, but the big reason I switched from Tasks to Todoist was

  1. Being able to share lists - Super helpful for things like shopping lists
  2. Integration with things like Alexa - Going through the pantry and adding things to the shopping list with just my voice, or being able to add something to the shopping list just by saying it when it runs out is kind of like magic.
  3. Easy natural language recurring tasks

I can't live without todoist personally. I started with Google tasks.

Natural selection 2. The game is pretty much dead now, and it is not easy on new players, but no other game I've played has this awesome sense to teamwork and coordination with intense combat. It kind of ruined all other multiplayer games for me. I haven't found anything like it.
