Guess I’m throwing out all of my underwear
I mean if it is covered in poop and you won’t clean it then you should…
Yes, among other scandals. That’s why it has been captured and is being debased. The Washington Post is now like Hector’s corpse being dragged and abused in grisly triumph, except there’s no Aphrodite to keep it from rotting.
For me, it’s “Does this have a practical function?”, and if no, then “Would I evacuate with this in a disaster?”
and by “evacuate” i mean “poop”
Keeping my buttplug collection, I guess.
I’ve now thrown out all my toothbrushes and toilet paper. My fridge and pantry have been emptied entirely, and the bookshelf has been purged. Maybe this wasn’t the best approach.
Would I still keep the Washington post if it were covered in poop…
It already is and no
Only if Bezos is covered too
I have a one and half year rule. If I haven’t used it for more than 1 and a half years, it’s trash.
I can’t do that. :( I’m often wanting a part for a project or just the right thing for, whatever. FFS, I save broken glass for when I need to cut it down to fix something.
Another loose rule I have is to fill the trash can each week. If it’s not completely full I try to find things to put into it.
How do you cut glass?
it’s remarkably simple actually, you just score it with a cutter and then break the glass at the scoring point
That doesn’t apply to the spare cable box, obviously.
ಠ_ಠ
You underestimate my willingingness to clean
“You will own nothing” ass philosophy
Watergate was covered by journalists; these “articles” are written by clickbait engagement employees.
I think the movie “The Post” did a good job highlighting the corruption within journalists/media as well. It’s not a historical accurate retelling people ensure to point out but it addresses how individuals get tied into closer relationships with politicians which gets them scoops which inevitably make them more money and promotions, but those can be tied to not asking the hard questions, and not wanting to hurt ties/friendships they form along the way.
Then again, most Tom Hanks movies end up being pretty good. Movies like “A Man Called Otto” always surprise me.
Time to throw away all the food.
There goes everything in the fridge and pantry.
Instructions unclear, ive shit in my cupboard.
"I shit in a urinal
In other words I’m saying I don’t care"
Okay, so I’m getting rid of my mattress, most of my furniture, most of my electronics, etc.
I think the idea behind this idea is good: If you’re trying to get rid of stuff, only keep things that you would expend a bit of effort for.
However, I think they’re wildly underestimating how many items will be destroyed or irreversably ruined in some way by poop.
The one I’ve heard is, if you spilled a glass of red wine on it, how hard would you work to clean/fix it? It’s more in the vein of decluttering as opposed to replacing furniture. So obv your couch and TV are exceptions
I think it’s probably better to amend it to, “if it was covered in poop would you get rid of it and not replace it?”
I’m too poor to replace the things that got covered, so this still doesn’t work.
Well, work with the basis of the question being that you could afford to replace it.
Ok, i replace everything because theres no reason not to short of the environment
Sure there is - it’ll take up space and you have to go through the hassle of going and buying it again.
Maybe they’re coming from the other direction.
Remember; they’re owned by and thus write for the famously depraved billionaire class.
Listen mate, if you can cover 50" tv in poop, you need to go see a doctor first.
They didn’t specify whose poop.
Different kind of doctor then.
Challenge accepted!
They said when decluttering. Most of those things aren’t in question when you’re specifically decluttering. No one looks at their mess and thinks “maybe getting rid of my mattress, couch, phone and TV would make things cleaner”.
Just dry the mattress and put some sheets on it
I dunno. Lightly Entertainment is in my experience part of most larger News Papers. And it had been the past decades. Especially in the feuilleton. I mean, you cant pull a watergate out of your hat everyday. And a news paper has a lot of pages to be printed
To be fair just investigate politicians and billionaries, surely you can find something
