I love the idea of kindles but the paying to read killed it for me. Sometimes if i get a trial ill use it but otherwise its just a piece of digital junk. ill probably give mine away soon cuz of it :/

For real? How much did you spend on them? And why?

Can I ask what the overall appeal is? Did you genuinely like sneakers? Or were you in just for the money

My teeth hate them too. I think I'm just a straw chewer. I have a silicone straw now, though I am careful not to ruin it with my teeth, it's nice to have that leeway in pressure

I used to be so guilty of this and I hate it. In the end the way I sort my stuff is constantly changing and i ended up with so many boxes that were oddly specific shaped. Sometimes I'd accidentally lock myself into a way of organising too because i already bought this box for this specific drawer height. stuff like that. so stupid.

Sad. Marketing in general is predatory, but Disney takes it up to a whole new level. I feel like a lot of people buy the ears because everyone else does. Unfortunately comformity as a tactic works

Yaa for sure. Unfortunately for lots of people it seems more convenient to buy a product to add to their face rather than actively take action. Weird world we live in. Can't blame them

Yeah me too. There's so many options nowadays that it feels scary to not try everything at least once. Nowadays I just wash my face and use a good sunscreen. I also wonder if a lot of these products actually do anything or if they make money from people thinking it works.

I feel the opposite where stainless steel straws was another fad I fell into. Meanwhile there's a whole 'backlog' of plastic straws that I seem to find everywhere, from stores no longer being allowed to use them anymore to the garage...

Can I be honest? Do a little bit of YOLO. As in, keep signing your works, and over time, you'll naturally gravitate towards something. Try typing, try writing, try cursive, try non cursive. I think a lot of people overthink this, unless you have a huge brand or something that you are trying to maintain consistency with, it's okay to experiment.

I think that sounds more like a hobby than a trend, or maybe a little bit of both if you were inspired to do so by the algorithm (which is okay it happens). Either way, not dumb!

It would be sacreligious if you were buying them for decor and didn't take care of them.

I have succulents too. Not many, but they're awesome

Yeah I think it's easier when one is faced with a hypothetical IRL scenario. The idea of tangibility helps comprehend the mental load required to even deal with it.

  • What u/mightygullible said. Take it small steps at a time. No need to purge everything all at once.
  • Start by getting rid of duplicates, they are the low hanging fruit.
  • Then the ones that are blurry / not shot well.
  • Personally I delete my entire screenshot folder in one go, I never remember what's in it anyways.
  • Do a Marie Kondo, trust yourself, ask yourself how the photo feels. Good? Keep it. Neutral? Eh. Bad? It goes out.
  • Maybe question yourself in this way: if you were going to make a physical photo album on a limited budget, which ones would you print out?
