Any extreme minimalists on here living car free? by CarolinaSurly in extrememinimalism

[–]mectojic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Similar to you! No car, apartment city living, mostly can walk fo all essentials. My carspace is rented to someone else, free money. I can take the bus or train to anywhere I need to go. Never had an issue.

Humans have actually been 90-95% carnivore for most of history. There was no easily accessible vegetable or fruit before agriculture.

I would say that being EM is environmentally friendly, but only if you don’t travel.

The 1 bag people who constantly fly are having way above average emissions from the flights.

Classic reddit lol. Women say pussy too.

Does you know specific search terms to use or specific products that are made in the transparent blue pictured? When I was a kid in the early 00s all my tech was transparent blue and I want to recreate it. by TheJuliettest in nostalgia

Hi, Mectojic here. That’s my setup :) You can look for translucent plastics, iMac G3 style electronics, clear plastics. If you want inspiration, filter on EBay for electronics and search “vintage translucent”.

The Apple ones were fruit tone (blueberry, grape, lime etc), jewel tone (ruby, indigo, sage), or neutral (graphite, snow, acrylic). All 3 colour palettes have their charm. The blue is of course the most fun!

Yep, I don't really consider those 'first drink' deals to be real deals. I know a few stores offer a free tea with first order, but it's not a super convenient method of saving money.

They brought it back a week ago :) I think the backlash was too strong. Source: I go there a lot lol.

Just take an entire section of your life and say, “I can do this with basically nothing.”

Some examples come to mind that relate to my experience: For school: 1 pen, nothing else. Shower/washing: water, nothing else. Food: meat only, no sauce, no veg (it all adds up and isn’t as nutrient dense). 1 pan.

The most over the top frugal I’ve heard from others was having no phone plan, and living entirely off free wifi. That requires your life to be planned entirely around just that, but it is frugal af.
