If you want to be outraged by something today besides the government, perhaps consider this "analog starter kit" that was promoted in the gd New York Times.
Some choice excerpts from this 1200-word article:
In the upper-right corner of each card are three little circles, which Ugmonk calls Card Signals. You can use these to rate yourself on your productivity for the day or as a way to organize related cards. I use them to signal if there are any tasks remaining on the card, by filling in the topmost dot; it’s an easy, visual way to make sure I finish everything I set out to do.
You may be wondering how well the system works if you need to step away from your desk. I handle this situation in one of two ways: If I want to continue to remain offline as much as possible, I simply take a task card with me. I usually fold it in half and tuck it into my wallet or slip it next to the bookmark of whatever book I’m reading (someplace I’m sure to see it). Otherwise, I transfer what’s on the card to my Todoist app.
The Analog system speaks to my Gemini spirit, allowing me to feel both professionally serious and surprisingly free. The heavyweight cardstock and the premium look and feel of the card holder give my desk an executive sheen, and whatever I jot down on a fresh Today card feels vitally important. Yet filling in the dot to mark a task complete gives me a small moment of childlike joy, as I try not to color outside the lines.
