I had childhood nightmares about library fines

Beeminder just sounds like trauma to me

It is definitely not for everyone but highly motivating for some people

Yeah, I was being tongue in cheek. I particularly like the idea of donating to a charity of your choice, that would turn my procrastination bug into a feature 😂

I hear you on library fines. When I left England (took my last semester of undergrad there) and I had three books checked out of the public library and returned them. They only correctly logged 2 of them back in. A year later I had a hefty fine for a book I returned on time.

When I check books out now I return them and watch them check it back in.

I just remember it being strongly emphasized at uni that you wouldnt graduate if you had outstanding library fines lol
