In no particular order, this is a chaotic assortment of things I genuinely enjoy and get utility from. Some of these are affiliate links—I’ve started setting them up as a secondary concern and learning exercise, not for financial gain in and of itself (though if you’re going to buy something anyways, clicking through them would help offset some of the costs of running this site).
