old movies, public domain, classics, other such things: the read-more edition
this is a carry over of my original post but under a read-more for more extensive and readily available editing. updated whenever possible
the purposes of this post continue to be “eclectic” but to be “brief”, is for people who enjoy consuming Media and want to have online resources on hand to find them, especially when they are non-contemporary, non-mainstream, and/or on the obscure side (but not always!). it has evolved far beyond what the title says basically
feel free to send your own resources!

What kind of things do you have spreadsheets for ? I have one for my networking too
Oh god, you guys are going to think I’m crazy but I swear I’m not, I just really love excel. I have spreadsheets for:
Networking
Job applications
Scheduling (back when I needed to plan out my classes)
Casing Journal (back when I was still interviewing for consulting)
Habit tracking
Keeping track of my cousins and their bdays (my dad had 5 other siblings and my mom has 3 other brothers, so there’s a lot of them)
Budget/spending tracker (I use an app now for budgeting/spending, so I use this more for like wish listing things I want to set aside money for)
Possible investments (usually update this once a quarter, which is a LOT less than you should update but I don’t have the time anymore lol)
Reading lists
My friends (basically my networking sheet, but for friends I don’t talk to everyday so I can keep track of the last date of contact and check in on them semi-regularly)
Packing lists for travel or moving (pre-pandemic ofc)
I know I’ll find more if I look, but these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Hey guys! As a writer myself, it’s hard to have a lot of resources for writing in one place. That’s why I decided to create this masterpost, and maybe make more if I find future resources. I hope you like it, and expect to see more masterposts like this in the future!

When my little sibling found out I was on the Dean's list, they asked me what that was. This is what I told her:
Ok so there's this guy named Dean, right? And he has this list, and ya can't have a list without names, so he goes to each college or university and says "hey, yo, who's got the best grades?" And the college/uni is like "all these people" and then Dean's all like "dude that's so hype, imma put them on my list!" So Dean has like a bajillion lists of names of people with good grades bc he really likes lists
A comprehensive list of all my fears, bitch
