      They need the beige to not feel overwhelmed by all the stuff they bought. Just like they need tons of cupboards and organization tools to not have to constantly see all the clutter they acquired. It also hides it, so the money sunk into unnecessary junk escapes your mind and you don't have to be confronted by your bad consumerist choices.

      It can’t be good for the body either. I have an outside job so I take two water bottles to work and just having them slotted on the sides of my work bag is a noticeable weight but distributed evenly. That giant mug, the water weight and the added accessories all supported by hand? Probably not a good idea for prolonged periods of time.
      And yes, I did see the shoulder strap but the same applies to the shoulders. Big heavy purses can cause the body issues as well.

    Please, stop eating Crumbl.
    It’s undercooked and over priced (not to mention the way they treat their workers). Just go out and get a tube of cookie dough from the grocery store and make it for yourself.
    If you want that soft cookie style, cut the cookies and then freeze them. Cooking from frozen will help give you the outside crisp/inside soft thing.
    And if you wanna make your own fully cooked but still soft cookies, switch away from all purpose flour, cake or bread flour can give you more cake-y or bread-y texture. And if you want to REALLY make a soft cookie mess up proof, remove 1-2tbsp of flour and replace them with corn starch. The amount is variable depending on recipe size, but take it from a professional baker. It’s doable and you don’t have to run the risk of kinetic sand cookies.
    Edit: Gonna add this here cause a few people have thanked me for the soft cookie tips.
    If you want softer cookies from scratch, never melt your butter/fat. It needs to be creamed in (beaten with the sugars) until it's light and fluffy since that's the only way air gets added into your recipe. Combine that with the other tips and you shouldn't have any issues.

    As someone who grew up in a family that reused and saved every jar and container we bought and wore things (like shoes) till they were literally falling apart and survived on second-hand clothes and furniture and VERY rarely got new toys, I will say becoming an adult and having even a bit of disposable income it’s been so hard to train myself to balance between “I’m allowed to buy something nice for myself once in a while” but also “do I really need it or does it just look pretty or glamorized”.
    I still try and recycle/reuse things but I don’t save every single container from a product I buy. I still thrift my clothes but will buy new every now and then.
    I hate this trend of collecting reusable water bottles and ALL the stuff. It makes me feel so gross.

      I mean, once you have a skincare routine and products (or other cosmetics, or food, or anything consumable really) you know you're going to use regularly, why wouldn't you stock up, whether it's because you found a good temporary deal, can save on shipping by buying in bulk, or even just to have confidence that you don't need to worry about the state of your skincare supplies for a few months? Expiration dates are obviously a thing, and there's no point buying a kilo of moisturizer only to then decide "eh, I actually don't like this one that much", but if you know you are going to use up something, having a solid supply of it is just more peace of mind and one less thing to keep track of.

    I think people who excessively overconsume in this way actually have wounding and fears around scarcity. Like my mom always has bulk snacks, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, etc. and I asked if she had a fear of running out of things. Since then she’s brought it up multiple times and expressed she is really afraid of not having enough to survive, even though my family doesn’t struggle for money. It stems to her childhood and how he parents raised her around money. I also think buying things can be a source of dopamine that people really cling to, despite the fact that there are other, healthier options.

    Hear me out about those drawer organizers,
    I am a disorganized person at times and things on my desk and bathroom counter can get really messy. I kept seeing shorts of people organizing their stuff with those containers and also using a counter shelf for their bathrooms to organize their things. I decided to buy some myself and it helped me greatly. It made my space look really clean.
    Though I am all for organizers making life a lot easier and cleaner, I think we should stop buying things that we don't need. I think having like five AirPods is too excessive. Or even buying too many iPhones every time a new one comes out. I also think that is too excessive.
    Having some organizers to organize their things, I think is a good investment since things tend to get hectic and all over the place but over buying things it not the way to go. That also includes under buying things because I can see that as becoming unhygenic and a potential health hazard if it's way too extreme.
    Just my thoughts on the matter.

    • @jbird4478

      It doesn't help if you are disorganized. People who buy those containers for that reason always end up being equally disorganized, but now with additional stuff in those containers, and everything else still on and around your counter. Those things only work for people who are the polar opposite; obsessively organized. Because you need to actually keep those things in order. It doesn't magically stay organized.

    I thought we already went through product overconsumtion in 2017 with makeup, when everyone would buy 20 makeup pallettes for a "collection" and then would realize its way too many to use before their expiration

    i think an interesting thing about the whole “wanting stuff to be aesthetic is shallow and bad” argument is that like. people by default like things that look nice. we like things that are pretty or fun or pleasing to the eye and that’s like extremely normal. and i feel like the modern world has often abandoned the concepts of like graphic design that’s meant to look good in favor of graphic design that’s meant to be insanely eye catching (and oftentimes ugly) on the store shelves. and in the past, cheap stuff was plain and boring, expensive fancy stuff was embellished. and we’ve flipped that completely to cheap stuff being embellished in a tacky, cheap way and expensive things being aesthetic and plain. no one wants their shower/kitchen to look like an advertisement with clashing colors and loud texts that reflect brands and drawing the eyes attention to them rather than the surrounding room that’s been decorated with the individuals personal wants. having things that are plain (not even pretty necessarily) is a privilege in this portion of hyper-advertising stage of capitalism. and if you can’t afford/don’t want to buy the products with packaging that assaults your eyeballs the next best thing is to find a cheap plain aesthetic package that diverts attention away from the product and allows the eye to focus on the room/actual decor that you’ve decorated your home in for your own pleasure, not just to look cookiecutter “good” and “aesthetic” for social media. it feels like the hyperunderconsumption core is oftentimes just trying to punish poor people for a) daring to engage in an inherently unsustainable capitalism system for things that aren’t basic needs and b) wanting to have a nice, pleasing space to live in by acting like any poor person who’s trying to curate their home in an affordable manner is just “over consuming” and trying to “copy the rich tik tok influencers they’re too poor to be like :(“ rather than realizing that poor people are people too and a lot of people naturally don’t LIKE to live in a place where they’re surrounded by things they don’t like looking at.

    My only thing with the "unboxing boxes to put food in them" is that depending on where you live its actually a smart thing. Humidity is the devil's breath when it comes to a lot of dry food and pouring out the last bit of something from a box only to find a clump of mold is not how you wanna start your meal lol

    Overconsumption? Underconsumption? Why can't we just have reasonable consumption?

    I have two stanleys because I was blessed by my birthday gift givers not communicating, and I am OVERJOYED to have the option of a cold water and a cold special bevvie (I need hydration drops and being able to add a flavor packet makes it so fun). I cannot fathom more than two unless you just don't wash them regularly or forget them all over your influencer mansion.
