True vs magnetic vs compass heading tricks?

[AndyMac]

I mostly have all this down but am annoyed by not having a simple rule to remember for it. Do any of you have any simple tricks to remember what is measured or reported in magnetic vs true course?

E.g. for what I’m talking about:
-airways (and VORs) are magnetic
-weather is reported in true
-runways are magnetic

Looking for a simple thing to use to remember it. Maybe there isn’t one?

Of course, if you hear the winds in ATIS, it is magnetic.

Think back to, say, the 1970s, before there were tablets, datalink, etc in the cockpit. ...

This is a very good explanation and one that I will steal to use with students. Thanks @David Megginson .
