Wordhippo! It is, hands down, the best online thesaurus ever.

You can search synonyms and antonyms, and it includes slang, explicit language, and multi-word phrases, all of which are typically excluded in other thesauruses I’ve used. This feature lets you find both more specific/academic/professional words and more general/slang/colloquial words. It’s saved my sanity in term papers and texts alike. When you search a word or phrase, you get a page that breaks down synonyms by meaning and part of speech (check out this page for “live,” with 11 verb usages, 13 adjective usages, and three adverb usages).”

Edit: They also have TV shows and Anime. I’ve watched One punch man and Fairy Tale.”

 

THE FOREST APP

“If you’re a student or are really trying to stay focused at work, there’s an app called The Forest: Stay Focused (I could be wrong, but it’s definitely The Forest). It’s a free app that’s available as an extension on Google Chrome or the Apple AppStore. Basically, you plant a tree, set a time limit, and you can only go on the sites that you’ve added to the whitelist, or your tree will die. It’s designed to stop you from always being on social media while you’re supposed to be studying or doing something productive.”
