I am what is known as a collector. I do not collect merely for the sake of collecting. It because i do use what is in the collections and then end up with huge collections of them.doodle wrote: ↑Tue Dec 29, 2020 10:29 pm
I'd heard of them but not seen many. From website looks like they are making a comeback.
Nothing wrong with anti minimalism if it's useful stuff. I just can't stand tztochkies and knickknacks. If I ever get a workshop I'll probably have it packed to the rafters with tools and junk.
Like listening to all the records and CDs I own. Reading all the books and comic books I own. Sometimes watching all the DVDs I own. Far less now that I have so much available online via both Netflix and Amazon Prime.
Tons of computers and related parts because I'm my own computer repair person and I'm so computer dependent and never want to be at a point where I don't have access to a working computer.
It's a whole mindset that drives one to own so much. There ARE others in this country similar to me. The thing I have over most of them is that I'm super organized. If anything can be put in any order - usually by alphabetical or chronological - then it is.
On the other hand I do not own or have in this house many things that most people do. Like a clothes dryer. A dish washer. Or, any furniture in my living room. Not much furniture in any room. I think the only things that might be considered furniture in this house would be this six foot table I'm using, the futon bed, a desk in the other bedroom?
