would you go with a ceiling fan with light or without light?

Please ignore the mess, my room is a bit chaotic right now. So here is the deal. I use this room as my entertainment cave, mostly just catching up on tv and hanging out. The catch is that this room has zero windows, so the air gets super stagnant and I desperately need to install a ceiling fan. I was initially leaning toward a Hunter, but then i stumbled upon Parrot Uncle. Tbh , their styles just vibe so much better with my room aesthetic, plus they are having a sale right now, so I am ready to pull the trigger. But now I am stuck. I have narrowed it down to two specific models i really like, but i can not decide which route to take. One model comes with built in led lighting. I figured this would save me the hassle of buying extra lamps, and i currently have a light fixture on the wall that i could just swap out anyway. The other model is just a clean fan without a light. If I go that route, I would hunt for a table lamp later. I actually have my eye on one from ikea, but that is a whole other story. So, which one should I get? I have attached pictures of the room for reference. (Please, no third options. I know my style might not be everyone cup of tea, but i genuinely love both of these looks.)

IPL hair removal results

Everyone, this is the result after three months of using Ulike on my upper lip, and I am very satisfied. The hair on my upper lip has become very sparse now, and I feel like the growth rate is slowing down. Maybe it is just my imagination, haha. I am honestly so happy right now. I am getting ready to try other areas for my next step. PS: Do I look more feminine after hair removal?

genuinely asking. i drive past the same shell station every morning and every time i look at that vacuum island i feel a small personal anger. it's 4 quarters for 4 minutes. you have to back your car up to the right slot, climb out, feed it actual quarters in 2025 like it's a parking meter from 1987, and then you get a hose that smells like every other person's car interior who used it before you. the hose is always the wrong shape for whatever you actually want to clean. by minute 2 you've moved one floor mat. by minute 3 you've located the cheerio that has somehow been in your back seat since october. by minute 4 the machine cuts out and you stand there holding a hose connected to nothing while a dad in a minivan waits for you to leave. then you drive home. with most of the dust still in the car. i know this is not a real problem. i know there are wars happening. but every single time i do this routine i think about how the entire setup is engineered to extract quarters from me in exchange for 90 seconds of suction and the dignity of pretending i cleaned my car. (pic for context, this is what i was supposed to be cleaning. yes i know. dont @ me) i finally just bought one of those small handheld things you charge with usb-c. mine is a hoto vacuum, sits in the door pocket. nothing fancy. paid for itself in like 9 trips i didn't have to make to the shell station. and i can actually finish vacuuming the floor mat before something cuts out, which is apparently asking too much from gas station infrastructure. anyway please tell me i'm not the only person who has actively gotten mad at a gas station vacuum. i need to know.

for years i thought i was just lazy because i kept avoiding those spots. lately i've been trying to separate i don't want a clean home from i don't want to physically scrub that exact texture with my hand.
i ended up getting a hoto spin scrubber for those little corners. not for some huge deep clean or anything dramatic. mostly just because it lets me clean the gross part without feeling like my hand has to personally enter the crime scene.
it's such a boring realization, but removing one specific barrier makes me way more likely to actually do the chore.
what's the tiny household task you avoid for a weirdly specific reason?
