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

Reminds me of how my dad drilled a hole into the bottom right of his espresso machine's drip tray to attach a pipe draining it 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.

Sadly, I have no way to do it now because the entire exterior wall of this condo consists of floor to ceiling glass windows and sliding glass doors. There's a standard exhaust vent through one of the slots for an upper window panel but it's not realistic to send air up that high.

The original setup went out of a window, although it didn't work nearly as well. It'd need something like noctua.at/en/nf-a14-indu / noctua.at/en/nf-a14-indu to push the air all the way through. Normal case exhaust fans aren't really meant to push air through a duct from there.
