Give your plants a bigger pot and some NPK fertilizer
I've been living this "underconsumption core" for years, but it used to be called "being responsible with finances"
Nah it’s called being poor
@@santiagobutler6282 Nah! It's called not destroying earth and future of humanity with ur own hands due self ignorance and utter stupidity.
@@santiagobutler6282 bro my family is notpoor and i get allowance every week, they want to give me more, but i refuse them because i just use my money for food and save the rest
@@santiagobutler6282 Depends on what you think poor is. A lot of poor people are poor because they are not responsible with their finances. But in my country you also get money from the state if you don't have a job for example. So poverty isn't as extreme as in other countries.
@@santiagobutler6282middle class can just choose not to be capitalism's victims
1) Thank God I don't have TikTok 2) Holy crap I had no idea consumerism had this much of a chokehold on society - the excessive accessories for the Stanley cups...just what
You know you've reached end stage terminal capitalism when reusable cups are looking like those military bags with the MOLLE straps that allow you to attach even more things to it.
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.
Always has been. It's the natural state of the world, to consume
"Thank God I don’t have TikTok" but you have youtube which is literally the same, people like these are also on ytb
YOU DONT HAVE TIKTOK?! YOUR MISSING OUT ON THE SWIPE GAMES!
Underconsumption: the normal consumption made 💖✨ Fashionably ✨💖
Overconsumption: Hoarding made 💖✨ Fashionably ✨💖
Putting "core" after a word does not make it trendy. The level of sad does not change. In fact "core" makes it even more sad.
Why don’t u have more subs this genuinely upsets me you make such good content. I’ve always wanted to be a UA-camr but I realised how hard editing is and seeing videos this good makes me appreciate them so much more
subs don't matter. what matter the most is views.
You should try it anyway. If you do it for views it won't work but if you do it because the idea is appealing, try so.
Maybe you will like it enough to continue or doing 1 or 2 videos will be enough. You don't have to show your face btw, look at the youtuber Dream
MAKE YOUR SILLY LITTLE VIDEOES
DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT
I'll watch your videos! I'd love to support you, please follow ur dreams
I miss the days when people thought for themselves and had common sense. Why does a UA-camr or anyone else need to tell you that 6 $50 cups tor one person is over doing it. Or that you're not supposed to go through life desperately trying to impress or show up other people or base your likes and dislikes on what your favorite TikToker recommends.
Because people consume and support that content like the braindead sheep that they are.
I was saying the same to my sister a few hours ago. People have really just stopped thinking for themselves. Really thinking For themselves. Sad.
7:31 now why tf did they restock THREE pairs of AirPods?
Because if they only put one in the box, it would be lonely!
For the morning, midday and evening run.
because if the AirPod runs out of battery they jst throw it away and get out a new one!
Some AirPod species are migratory
STOP I COMMENTED THE SAME THING 😭😭😭
I have a container hoarding problem but the difference is i don't buy the containers, instead i keep the containers that cane with things i bought and end up a with a ton of containers that i don't need. Its like the moment i see an empty container my mind goes, oh that can be used to store something so then i keep it.
Same
that is SO REAL
im convinced fiddle leaf figs only grow when you are actively ignoring them
2:22 lets be honest ,if you can afford several stanleys and stanley gadgets you probably can afford to not have a roommate
Let's be honest, consumer debt is high in the U S. and people can use a credit card or buy now pay later.
No?
10:20 going for a walk I see
We all love krumbl (cookies)?
Matching in beige is the core of overconsumption 😢 haha but seriously, consuming for the aesthetic has gone too far! Thoroughly enjoyed your informative yet entertaining video. You are the funniest person on the internet I’ve seen in a while! 😂😂😂
i was staring at those streets bc they looked insanely familiar. I search up the crumbl cookie and lo and behold it's actually the same city. who would have thought I lived this close to him wow
I refuse to download TikTok for a myriad of reasons- this is one of them
I get pantry weevils in my house but pesticides are strongly against my morals, so i NEED to repackage my food in containers to prevent it 🥺 also i kind of love the idea of fridge-scaping...
UA-cam hiding this for 30 seconds is diabolical
the half coffee half water thing was pretty cool actually. but it's only there to say "look how fancy my stanley cup is!!!"
Those Stanley cups are the pinneacle of consumerism, glad people are moving on bit I'm sure they'll find something else to collect. Also, it's so sad fans fall for buying the same record in different colors
"Broken Arrow" means a lost nuke. Stanley must be very good to have a function for that.
As someone who actually underconsumes, these normal people with a normal amount of consumption are treading on my turf. My wife and I batch cook every meal, we could live on £1-2/day/each. If we want to buy anything the soonest we will buy it is 2 weeks after that point so we know if we do genuinely need it or not, we also just borrow stuff from my parents (they offered it up, just have to ask and if they don’t need it then I can borrow it and they can trust me to bring it back in a better condition than I borrowed it in - the same can’t be said for my siblings, if they borrow something they won’t just return it and end up trying to claim it). We do have a cellar that is full of bulk bought stuff (borrowing my parents’ Costco membership [they exist in the UK], I usually end up going with them as it reminds them that they have a membership and it’s good value) to both reduce costs but also we only need to go shopping once a month. Overall including everything we spend maybe £8/day/each (this includes everything from food to household items, from insurance to appliances, from gardening equipment to clothing. While I know people who spend £10/day just on lunch) or about £6k/year. We’re also working on our own kitchen garden so we can cut most of our food costs, and add smaller gardening costs.
We’re not cheap to the point that it’s an issue, we will invest in good quality things if it does have a benefit. We also don’t live in a revolting place, the money we saved we put into our home to make it perfect. I also really like how I just have duplicates of the same outfit and so unless my wife lays out clothes for me (she makes clothes for me, but the only time I’ll wear a dress is if she has put it out for me) I don’t have to make a choice.
Food is a waste to just make it taste good, you don’t gain any benefit after that moment, the only long term effect is obesity. Just make it healthy and cheap, and treat it as fuel.
Just find 1 outfit you like, ideally not name brand, ideally on sale, and buy a bunch of them - my default outfit is worth about £25, it’s really comfy, and I must have worn each piece of clothing at least 200 times over the past 6 years, so my clothing cost per day is around £0.50 (in the UK on average each article of clothing is worn 7 times, assuming a cost of £10-£60 per item and assuming 3 articles per outfit you’re looking at £4.29-£25.71/day for clothing assuming 1 outfit per day).
Save money where it would otherwise be a waste, to then have money to put towards where you would get a benefit.
Actually living in Oregon in a rural house you NEED to put your food in other containers to keep from humidity OR small animals/ bugs THAT IS not consumption whats over consumption is the fact factories create too much single use plastic and unsessarsy plastic items.
The Stanley thing kind of reminds me of getting accessories for my toys when I was a kid
We only recently had IKEA opened near us so we can check it out, and I fell in love with a lot of organizers, and honestly a lot of the times they do provide a great benefit especially for people with big drawers and a lot of mess. I like sorting out my pencils and desk, sorting out my small shelf with arts supplies. I also bought containers for small food storage but use them quite rarely.
and boy i'm so terrified of watching those "restock" videos. they scratch my "perfectionist" itch but when i realise how much money i'm looking at i feel so bad. also the amount of time required to refill and organize it is scary.
the funniest thing about all the accessories for the stanley’s is that they’ve made it barely able to hold now 🤣🤣
I feel sad for people who buy expensive cookies or cupcakes cause I think it just means you dont have a mom that bakes
Having stuff can be both a comfort and stressful. Feel like I never have the things I need to use when I need them so the idea of having a lot of things available seems like a good idea but whenever it comes time to move or something I already have way too much stuff to deal with.
the under consumption is so funny because you are still consuming i feel like they think underconsumption is buying cheap things? or thrifting idk
Underconsumption generally refers to living within means/etc. Having three sweaters, usually second hand and not fast fashion, using cloth towels instead of constant paper towels, reusing plastic containers instead of buying these brand new plastic ones/etc. This is also what it started out as on social media before being hijacked.
9:35 ah yes, millennial core 💀
I did not need to see that today 😭
i thought i was gonna get called out because i wanna buy more clothes. turns out I wasn't even close. what the hell is america
“We are literally ka-driving” 💀
The bags made for water bottles are very silly but I have one and it’s very practical for Uni! I have to use a scooter to get from place to place and those dumb looking bags helps out 😂
one crumbl cookie is two servings, my sister used to work at one and when Christmas came around they had extra dough and were able to bring it home between those working, we had several bags of dough in our chest freezer
3d printing is the ultimate escape, I can start a new hobby like guitar, and 3d print any accessories I need like picks or a guitar stand or wall holder, and it would cost me cents in pla and electricity
never been this early
Fun facts: The average single woman spends more than a family of three, and women make 80% of purchasing decisions inside the family unit. Yes, they are being marketed to, because that's how companies get money now.
Stanley cups are idiotic. No one needs even one.
8:30 I think those are coasters? That’s the only explanation I can think of.
This is truly the funniest video I've seen all week. You get a ha ha ha
One of these restocks would last me a lifetime
To be fair, I have learned the hard way that you actually need to restock your food into boxer, it stops the worms from comming
(Im not joking, cereal especially is a hotspot)
Bruh just graced us with an entertaining video and beautiful vocals
It's just really dystopian for me for some reason... Watching those feels relaxing (specifically stationary ones) but when you think about it... What the fuck-
please, someone, transport me back to the 80s....
While I agree with most of the video, claiming that individual action is the same as no action just because there are people (millionaires and billionaires) out there with private jets is just not right. Our action, even every little action helps like choosing recycled packaging over normal packaging. Climate scare and nihilism shouldn’t be promoted and we can make a change.
That is not a cookie it is a CAKE
The restock videos are an audio nightmare for me, i have whatever the evil version of ASMR is
I love that I'm not old enough that I had no idea what core anything is, and I know how to manage money.
Not Ray "forgetting" to put the Crumbl in the car the first time
@5:25 lol 😂 Sir. We have keypad locks that don’t require keys… Biometrics!!!
There is a reason George Carlin has an album called “All my Stuff”.
I’ve always hated restocking videos and never knew why but now I do, it’s so wasteful like damn just keep the original packaging
5:30 tbf walking would actually be quicker than the ferrari
if thats underconsumption, then i must be outside the economy entierly, i have trouble getting myself to buy things i need, let alone things i want
I agree with most of this except for the part where he reveals he has never seen a coaster in his life 😭
For a second I thought you were going to sucker punch yourself in your no-no spot... Glad you just got the cookie instead 😂
“On the invisible nose” was a solid joke and I want that acknowledged
Sad beige Stanley cups for sad beige children
Another great video , had a blast watching !
It wasn't social media that started the overconsumption. Yes it's pushed it further and faster but it's the government after WW2 that pushed overconsumption to push the economy. So that's why grandma and great-grandma had a whole bunch of China, knick-knacks, and things she never used all around her house. Our government pushed fear into those that lived through the Great Depression.
When I read consumption in the title, I thought tiktok was getting tuberculosis on purpose.
Bro you need to put the plants in bigger pots so they can have more room to grow.
i shed a happy tear seeing there’s a new vid
11:21 bro really just ate a sponge cake in front of me and tried to call it a cookie
I know the video addresses it but i cant get over how obnoxious that crumbl video was... genuinely that scream was the worst sound ive heard all day
Those cookie people are crazy. That's too much cookies.
We literally have a crumbl cookie pink bronco driving around my city. Pretty sure it’s the owner too
Crumbl makes my stomach hurt. 1/4 of one is my max.
Aren't these TikTok's of people putting stuff in containers done just for the views? It's satisfying to watch things get organized. (for some weird reason), it's bit like these ASMR videos. I don't think anyone really lives like that, unless, they're really OCD or something.
I mean, I’m not mad at a purse that is also a canteen. (Or a canteen that is also a purse.) That seems practical.
But the expensive matching stuff is clearly because she is filming a commercial for these matching products, not because anyone needs that in their life.
Why do they always turn things into ASMR content, why do they always feel the need
Leaving stuff on the top of your car is so real 😔
"let's not follow underconsumption core or overconsumption core, let's follow common f*cking sense core" This quote right here ladies and gents shows us how screwed this generation is lol
Wow how did he score a Norah Jones performance for this?😱
Also, I only have two Stanley’s. Logo-ed by the hospital I work for. One cream and one lilac. I rotate them between home and work. Great cups for water. Sometimes I bring home iced tea in them. Then I take the other to work… I’m weird.
I hate ads and sponsors on UA-cam.
I also get my validation from my plants
NGL Ray, you have a nice singing voice! :)
Also this is crazy.
Loved the fancy French scissors!
I saw this 5 minutes after it aired never been this early
,,Do you know what sucks? Identity theft. It's not a joke-" JIM! MILLIONS OF FAMILIES SUFFER EVERY YEAR. (hope you intended that reference)
I would not leave my sofa with Tim vanz
as a poor person who is forced to live with a shopaholic hoarder, god give me strength
I had one crumbl cookie, the frosting made me sick and never again.
I'd rather buy the ingredients and make them myself but add protein to it
Edit: My mom would give me the old plates/bowls/pans/ pots and silverware as an excuse to buy new ones. Saved me money too 👍🏻
Overconsumption? Underconsumption? Why can't we just have reasonable consumption?
I guess I'll have to cop to the multiple waterbottles. In my defence I buy cheapos and I have a purpose for each. If I have to grab the same water bottle and move it between the bags I use for sports I will inevitably forget it. So I have one that stays with my backpack, one that stays with my duffle bag, 2 that live on my disc golf cart, etc. a 40oz insulated bubba branded bottle is like 12 bucks :/
Tbf I have a few water bottles so I can have one in my sports bag and in my work bag, so I don't forget to move them. But then again they're both bottles I got for free so I kind of figured this as a use case I guess
Vivaldi four seasons reference goes hard
“Let’s follow Common-Fucking-Sense-Core.” 👏 😆 👍
Common sense is the least common of the senses
That solo at the end 😏
I refuse to support crumbl cookie, I can make perfectly good cookies at home that aren’t extremely sweet and overpriced
A rare interesting take on this story as it's so overtalked about atp
I'm sorry, the cookies have how much butter in them?
Your plants need to be repotted.
I love how Ray is also a F1 fan
I CAN SEE THE SUN AGAIN
i have three sets of airpods because the mics go out over time
Ray in is vlog era
Pssst… get a grow light
