Clock radio

you don’t look at your phone first thing, you wake up to music (but different music everytime so you don’t end up hating the song), you listen to music people chose and not the algo, and they’re like $12

Radio Alarm Clocks

Since teenagehood I always used my iPhone’s alarms, those horrible sounds to abruptly wake me from sleep and comfort. Now I use a radio alarm clock I got from Sharper Image that slowly gets louder over the course of 2 minutes to whatever station I desire! This makes waking up easier, and slower, less abrupt. You also can get lost in the radio, weekends are for the classical station and weekdays are for NPR. I wake up at 7 or 7:30am and lay in bed for a bit listening to the news and stories, not immediately looking at my phone, which now charges out of reach from my bed, which I also recommend! You can get them at Best Buy for like $20.

Screenless and screenful to do lists

separate your to do list into what does and doesn’t require a screen, and do those lists separately means you aren’t constantly bouncing between a screen and the material world. Bonus points if your screenless list is completed without any music or podcasts or anything at all. You’re hiding your true power level by blocking all your thinking with consumption!! posting a neoluddite rec on pifyi is basically reaction farming I’ve realised but I’m NOT that cynical I promise

Swag academia

In a post-blokecore world, I see swag academia as the next juxtaposition-based aesthetic trend. Think Jstor tattoos, studying whilst wearing Kreayshawn-type thick rim glasses, etc. much to be mined at the confluence of these styles, and it would allows one to indulge in academic styles without sliding into the cringe of dark academia
