Only if you’ve already lost the control of your life a long time ago… then it really doesn’t matter and you might not care about anything but wine about having no money.
Can someone explain what it’s like having a dirty room everyday? I’m a clean freak so my house is spotless. I’ve got a 4 roombas zooming around all day everyday. All my trash…goes in the trash can. But i see people having loads of water bottles on their desk for weeks and it doesn’t faze them. I just can’t stand filth.
I tend to forget about my many half-finished projects unless I can see them, so most horizontal surfaces are set up and have a project of some sort on them. I have added more bench space and plan to add more. It does mean that if I have drive to do a task, it’s already set up and I don’t have to worry too much about takedown either. I could probably stand to dust more (or more often than when I move house).
Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot of tools and odds and ends in drawers, cupboards, toolboxes etc. But like, if a work piece has glue drying on it (say), it will probably live where that is happening until I next work on it.
Trash migrates to the appropriate bin quickly. I have been depressed (and am still) and have had dirty dishes and trash pile up a little, but I really don’t like insects or errant smells in my space, so I usually stay on top of it.
I just kinda remember roughly where things are. I have tried to be more organised, but I wind up losing things until I next open the very logical place I put something.
I do clean up for rent inspection, but my current place doesn’t have them.
EDIT: When I have housemates I tend to match their level of organisation in shared areas. I seem to wind up doing all the dishes for some reason.
Scenario: you had time to avoid a head on car crash but now it’s inevitable. You still have time to slow down enough to survive with moderate injuries. Soon it will be severe injuries at best, and eventually fatal without action.
Your children and grandchildren will see climate related mass migration and fight wars over clean water. If we don’t do enough now, they’ll just starve or choke to death instead, suffering greatly.
And you refuse to correct course, so you’re no better than them. You’d rather have fun in the sun and doom future generations rather than put effort in. You’re failing the generational marshmallow test and you’re mad at me for pointing that out.
I like chocolate and yogurt covered raisins. Love raisins baked into bread. But naked raisins? Meh. I like dried fruit like banana chips, papaya, apple chips, etc.
