is there a good way to prevent a soap dish from getting all gross and filled with weird soap juice? iβm imagining like some kind of drain holes so it empties into the sink
It's basically how I was raised. That whole house is full of those kinds of custom hacks / projects.
I think an electrician would have a panic attack if they saw each room uses at least 2-3 circuits so that when a circuit breaker blows there are still working outlets everywhere.
Built this together when I still lived there for computer heat exhaust:

Basically, imagine a whole house full of that kind of stuff. I probably take things for granted as normal that other people would think are straight out of some mad scientist movie.
Solution: cut a hole in the wall.
That room being 21C instead of 27C in the summer is pretty nice.
Low tech solution before this was putting the computer on a stack of milk crates and using a duct to vent the air out of a window through a hole in a foam insulation panel.
Something that should actually be a product: he added timers to the circuits for the elements in his stove (standard bathroom fan timers) so you put an upper bound estimate on cooking time before starting and if you forget about it, the element automatically turns itself off.
