So in the past few weeks I had been listing, delisting then relisting, listing again, delisting again… old computers etc that I have not been using (well using but for fun and entertainment lol)… and the same loop went on and on maybe about 5 times (I’m not kidding). Even put my bike on sale —- I have also just delisted it LOL I had the same purging spree the last time I moved a few years ago but that one I somehow succeeded giving up my priceless (but old and maybe useless) tech [1]
[2] so I have realized deep inside I wanted to keep them but giving them up only because my space is small and my place is grtting a bit crowded… so my solution is —- get a bigger place LOL
OMG I’m going to be a hoarder
(I have more old tech stuff scattered everywhere in my room [and entire house]… the ones in the photo are just the ones I enjoy using right now LOL)
Look, my dear @snowdusk "hoarding" means that you're unable to throw away stuff that needs to go. You otoh have got so much cool vintage tec stuff that'd be a pity to throw in the garbage. So the point is not to get rid of it (let alone feel guilty for not doing so), but to find a way of storing it that you'll feel comfortable with.
Put up an online museum, blog a little more about it, find sponsors via patron - might that sound like a plan?
@jack wow!! That is one very sweet plan!! Thank you! And yes, someone here actually just pointed out to me what I’m doing is not hoarding? Hoarders keep stuff that have molds, have rat poops, decomposing animals, basically totally useless stuff (i watch a lot of “Hoarders” on A&E so i rlly shld know better!!). YES IM A vintaGe stuff COLLECTOR!! (will need to repeat this many times throughout the day LOL) 😆
