a one-page daily list that fires a random reward every time you check something off. variable reward, the only thing that actually works.
built this because the to-do app stack is broken. checking a box does nothing for me. paper at least had the strikethrough. so i rebuilt the strikethrough, plus a particle burst, a small sound, a meter that overshoots, and the actual trick: a random pull from a "dopamine menu" on every completion.
the reward is never pre-assigned. it could be good coffee. it could be ten minutes of nothing. you find out only after you've done the thing. that's the loop.
five-for-five triggers an extinction event. you can guess why.
