Thinking of being Schrödinger’s Catgirl: I’d dye my hair a color determined by a source of true quantum randomness, but not reveal it before I’ve interacted with people enough to place them in a superposition or something. Or alternatively I’d use said source of true quantum randomness to choose my actions and doom the many-worlders into eternally different macroscopic branches.
