Just to keep giving kitchen scale tips... if your single item is too small to register on the scale, add multiples until it registers and divide by the quantity.

It's an obvious tip to me in retrospect but helped me and hopefully someone else.

Don't ask crass questions like that, it's up to the waves to decide.

For your average Freedom Units Enjoyer like myself, "Argentina-sized" is about four Texas.

I'm usually really bad about turning it, perhaps once a season. I've been doing it more monthly lately though, my piles are definitely running warmer now.

Just to plug a related book by Mike Cleveland... it's a good read, I found it at the library and helped me get in the right mindset for lightening up.

I started to get into minimalism after looking at my house, I spent so much time just dealing with "stuff" that I didn't even really want. I wanted my time back, not only from dealing with it all but the mental burden before getting it out of my life.

The Reddit sub has really helped me learn new techniques to deal with it and prevent it from happening again.

Just to call out, if I'm having trouble getting rid of something that's sentimental... I take a picture of it. If I like something in a store, I can appreciate it at the store as a nice object but don't need to have it.
