I love my little NYTimes games ritual (start with easy Sudoku, then medium Sudoku, Connections, Crossword, hard Sudoku, Tiles, and finally Spelling Bee if I feel really locked in). Still, the brain health benefits and fun of these puzzles feel diminished when I realize this is HOURS of unnecessary screen time.
I switched my daily puzzle ritual from online to a paperback, and I have never been happier. I feel so zen doing my sudoku outside like a fucking monk.

Lately I’ve been playing more Sudoku on my train commutes (also about 40 minutes). If you want to look at a screen less, you could get a book of Sudoku puzzles or crosswords or word searches. I feel like it helps me keep my brain sharp

Mental exercise 🏋️♂️, a simple but all-consuming addiction. I’ve played at least 1 game of sudoku every morning for months. I look forward to it, and find myself opening a game in progress rather than doomscrolling IG during those little moments of “in-between time”. I play on a phone app, but I’m seriously considering a back-pocket book of sudoku.

glam rock horror musical featuring a foppish singer named Beef dressed as a reanimated zombie performing a cantata about Faust. The phantom becomes disfigured when his face is squished in a record press, very rock n' roll.
