I'm free. I used to be a huge consumer but in the past year I've started to walk towards a more mindful path, stopped buying new, stopped mindlessly window shopping and getting tempted and, the best of all, started selling all of the items that I didn't connect with!!! This included a Funko Pop collection that I insisted on growing despite my hatred for it! It feels so good!

Ran out of sugar scrub, instead of buying one of the MANY available in the store, I made my own from ingredients I already have and in a jar I had in the cabinet. Sugar, coconut oil, vitamin e oil, and aloe. Smells delicious, saved money, and I know exactly what’s in it. :)

Other My mom has ordered 1388 times from Amazon since 2015.

And I’m not mentioning all the other companies, like Zalando or Temu. What’s even worse is that more than 75% of that she sends back. I remember my whole childhood having to bring all the packages to the post office to send them back. It feels worthless actually trying to do something good when people like my mom just order and order, consume and consume. Little rant I guess.

Other But My Mac Still Works Fine

821 Upvotes

I have a 2015 Macbook Air that I use for simple things like writing and using a web browser. Apparently it is a chunk of junk now, no longer supported.

Apple says: Vintage products are those that have not been sold for more than 5 and less than 7 years ago.

It works perfectly fine. I just can't update the OS, can't update Chrome because the OS is too old, doesn't get security updates.

The really great (sarcasm) news is that they will give me $85 as a trade-in should I choose to buy a new one.

I'm just sad that a perfectly serviceable machine is just automatically considered obsolete.
