What it does
The Life Picker makes everyday decisions from curated lists so you don’t have to: what to eat, which workout to do, what kind of movie to watch, where to travel, what gift to buy. Pick a category, draw one suggestion or a whole batch (up to 1,000), and reuse a seed if a decision should be repeatable.
Common use cases
- Meal planning — tonight’s dinner, or a whole week of dinner ideas in one draw.
- “What should we do?” — activities, hobbies, and movie genres for indecisive evenings (presets for meals, activities, and movie genres).
- Gift brainstorming — a starting point when the wishlist is empty.
- Travel daydreaming — random destination ideas to research.
Settings
- Category — meals, restaurants, activities, workouts, hobbies, gifts, travel destinations, or general life suggestions.
- How many — one decision or a list of up to 1,000 ideas.
- Seed — the same seed and category return the same suggestions; leave it blank for fresh ones.
Privacy note
Suggestions are drawn locally in your browser from built-in lists — nothing about your choices is uploaded or logged. It’s a decision helper, not advice; sanity-check anything with real stakes.
FAQ
Where do the suggestions come from? Curated built-in lists per category — general crowd-pleasers rather than personalized recommendations. Want your own options? Use the Random Picker with your list.
Why a whole week of meals at once? Draw 7 with a seed and you’ve got a reproducible meal plan — regenerate the same one when someone loses the note.
What if I don’t like the answer? Draw again — or notice that flash of disappointment, which just told you what you actually wanted. Either way, decision made.
