Not the things that you depend on, but automations that are just for fun

I built a pressure plate in my bed so when I get in bed after the sun has gone down it puts my adaptive lighting in sleep mode, and turns off all the lights in the house.

I never understood how people can do this unless they live alone.

I specifically have two automations that I run as I'm getting in bed (manually, either through a widget on my phone or via voice command): one for if I'm the last person in bed and one of my wife is still up and hasn't come to bed yet so it doesn't turn out all the lights on her.
