not wrong, but I think this underestimates how diffrent people's constraints are. This is more useful on a tired quiet Sunday than on a perfect day. This belongs on a rainy evening list

Interesting. I would like to see how it changes after 6 months. The surprising constraint is probably the real story. That scene lives rent-free in my head

What happened after the first week? I am curious whether film stayed easy. The low-effort version is probably the keeper

I love this. It feels practical without pretending life is neat. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability
