My wife has been binging house cleaning videos.

I asked why she enjoys them. Her response: I like the idea of throwing everything out.

Throwing everything out is very enjoyable and makes space for the new but can make children and spouses very nervous. 😏

Try it on your sock's drawer, you'll find the joy!

I really don’t have much. If I needed to ditch my house, I could fit my belongings in a backpack short of desktop pc

Less is more, unless it’s sats of course 😉

I’m perfectly fine with that if it started at less to begin with. Not fun to start with more and throw away just to get a cleaning high.

Is any of it useful?

its a cycle - unfortunately i had both my parents pass away recently and couldnt just throw out everything. Kept as little as I could that had sentimental or historical value. Now I am sorting and throwing out for the next few months.

Be careful not to throw away memories .

absolutely. luckily, photos don't take up too much space and are more valuable than digital ones. The stuff that takes up space is solid shelves i built with my dad as a child....but they are useful to store other stuff on. After moving over a dozen times in my life and 3 times to different countries, I have decided to never move again. Unless the system fubars me over with whats supposedly coming. If that extreme situation happens, I will gladly throw 80% out and return to living out of a car, but it might have to be electric this time 🤣

Never electric, the biggest virtue signalling BS of all time 😉

Make her watch #[0] then.

👍

🙈 oh no

It’s cathartic ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

My mom and I are totally like this too. My sister keeps everything for decades

You have a good wife

I have 60 devices on the home network now. I used to live out of a duffle bag and sleep in my car 10 years ago.

Does she like the ones with stay at homes moms or the professionals who clean out the homes of hoarders?

If she likes the one with hoarders, then introduce her to this lady:
