Just check to see if your toothbrush is still wet

strap an IoT moisture sensor to your toothbrush and you don't even have to get out of bed 😎

Or get a smart toothbrush that tracks your brushing and definitely doesn't form a botnet 3 million strong for cyberattacks

If this happens to you such as whether or not you locked your door before a trip do something novel while doing it.

Standing on one foot, or using your non-dominate hand (or at the end for something like brushing your teeth).

Helps solidify that you’ve done it

Doesn’t matter still gotta click lock sixteen times on the car key before it’s locked. That’s because the car key actually locks the car in small increments, so if you press the button only once it’s only somewhat locked. X

I usually try to audibly confirm it with the date. Makes those, "Did I lock my door or am I just remembering another day?" moments less likely to cause me anxiety.

This only works if you don't have ADHD.

I question myself every time I'm outside 🀷

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Interesting idea. I'll try it tomorrow.

I hate being halfway to work in the morning and having to go back because I couldn't remember shutting my apartment door.

It drives me absolutely insane.

You can also get a smart lock that will tell you

... Can't you feel if your teeth are clean or not?

[–] MinFapper 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That works at night, but much more difficult during the day because you eat stuff afterwards.

Looks like night in the meme?

I think it's possible to have plaque grow much slower depending on what you eat, like not eating any carbs or sugar. If you have fluoridated water and gum it will also slow the growth of plaque.

Stays on the counter after morning brushing

Back into the charger after brushing at night

It remembers for me

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I have to check if I locked the front door 3 to 5 times every night.
