I'm an (unwilling) collector of -itises: With AuDHD, Ankylosing Spondylitis, Rheum. Arth., Lupus or Scleroderma still in diagnosis mode there. I'm a huge nerd who loves learning and is a bit food science and safety obsessed.
I no longer have a relationship with my Brother and Sister-in-law after 11/6. As they voted for a person who seeks to make it unsafe for my partner to live in the body they are most comfortable in. 😥😡

Yup... It's so disheartening to see and hear about the cruelty that some of our fellow citizens are rooting for. Do we not have enough "naturally" occurring suffering in the world already? Is this what life was like in the time "just" before the Civil War or WW2-specifically in Poland and Germany?

Hank, In our house, we call this action (or lack there of) tea-ing one's self.

Oh lord... Why?!? Oh the mental imagery... It's awful..and nightmare fuel-ish. It also somehow triggers my tripophobia. 🫣 ☠️

Me too I'm a wee bit sad that she isn't on BlueSky.

I'm sorry! I knew you were low on tuna, but I forgor to order it from Walmart. It has been ordered and will be here soon. Hopefully, you won't parish before then. 😜

Now here's a kitteh who just exudes royalty and expects to be treated as such! Squee! 🥰 I hope they've been sentenced to a lifetime of pets, treats, and hard labor (with no possibility of purrole) as it's hard work being that elegant and adorable. It's solely for the brazen as it's highly illegal!

I'm super curious about your order history audits! I think we generally do pretty well not "buy buy buying everything" but I would like to know what waste and avoidable returns exist. Thanks for the idea. 🤓🎉

Once a year I ask the "did I use it question?" of our stuff. Items one of us says "I'd def. use it if I knew it existed.." goes in a small-medium open box for 3 months. If used, it stays. If not, I put it up on Buy Nothing or Craigslist or Freecycle.

I love this! We've used "no rush" for a couple yrs, but not for less waste. We call it "torture free shipping" or using "torture credits" for the 1-3 times/yr we really do need an item STAT as it were. AMZN et.al. distribution centers are likely the closest to widespread slave labor in the US.

It's been a minute since I played SushiGo (Party)... Thanks for the explainz! 🤓 Now I feel like one of the cool kids!

Agreed! That's an amazing guess! I've attached my own proudest guess.
