I really, really hate the culture of feeling obligated to buy loved ones something just for the sake of buying it for birthdays and other holidays--I feel equal distress about this as the buyer and the receiver.…
This is my first foray into minimalism as someone who was very much not a minimalist, so much that my family laughed when I said I wanted to become more minimalist because "I mean, you're you." It's going really well so far, against all predictions (mine…

I’m trying to decide between black only or grey only clothing. Does anyone wear only grey clothes? How hard to dress only in grey clothes? All black clothes seem a bit more easier to dress or not? submitted by /u/Calisthenics76 [link] [comments]
I have loved every futon, shikibuton, & thin wool mattress I've ever slept on, & my Western mattress is nearing the end of its life. So I'm going to pick up a queen-sized shikibuton from Rock Soft Futon in Oregon, US.…
I’m in the middle of a shred-a-thon but am second guessing myself about these so I thought I would put this question past you all: can any of you think of any [reasonable] reason why I would need to hold onto old day planners?…
