It's the first of the month, which for me means it's the day to backup things and check stuff.
Today I'm backing up my Mastodon account, which is really easy. In the settings under export, I request my archive, then download all my various CSVs of follows and such. I toss everything into a folder on my computer and put it into my backup system.
I also generally check my voter registration on the first of each month. http://vote.gov is the quick way to check.
