I'm wondering what is actually rubbish or what is usefull, for example I've had a sheet of foam for a couple of years that I'm sure could be useful but it takes up space, should I throw it or keep it in case I can make something ?
The first rule of simplifying:

Keep it and you'll never use it. Pitch it, and you'll wish you had it back within a week.

I used to save things like that. I had a sheet of foam, and finally did use it to make a foam sit-upon with a cut-out for a friend of mine, who spent so much time sitting on his a$$ his tailbone got sore.

@4meAndyou I might make a cushion or a pad out of it 👍 that's a great idea

Give it away. Everything is useful, just not to everyone.

@ninalanyon I'd love to do this but so much of it is rubbish

@Scarfface A sheet of foam would have been useful to me over the last couple of nights when I slept in my car while driving through Europe. I packed the car full of all sorts of things but forgot that so sleeping in my car was less comfortable than usual.

Anyway, when I have something like that I list it on our equivalent of Ebay/Craigslist/Gumtree. It's surprising what people will take of your hands and even pay you for. I sold four ancient Pentium CPUs last week. Only got the equivalent of 5 USD for them but that's still better than them being scrapped.

We have a local website where people give away things. You might have something similar.

@sciguy18 I'm on it, collecting more stuff I won't use

You forgot the “some things are useful at certain times.” I once went to an art gallery, and there was a pile of trash on the floor that had been varnished. It was an exhibit. It still looked like a useless pile of trash to me, but I guess someone found a use for it.

@Carissimi maybe I could make my foam into art 🤗 I'll try to adjust my pole
Carissimi · F
You can also use it for packing. @Scarfface

@Carissimi I'll pack may art in my rubbish 🙂 double usage

Could come in handy in case someone needs. Too many shortages these days and price increases tied to the increase of petroleum
Scarfface · 46-50, M
@cherokeepatti I'd love it if my foam helped someone but I don't know how to make that happen... All that has gone

😆 can understand why but be careful you may become a hauder 😆 [scarfface]
Scarfface · 46-50, M
@smiler2012 that is already a thing 🤣
Recycling what we can us very important

@BridgeOvertroubledWaters I'm doing my best, reuse and reclaim

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
90% of everything
Scarfface · 46-50, M
@ChipmunkErnie I bet it's still useful

If you keep everything that might someday be potentially useful, you will find yourself surrounded by rubbish.
Scarfface · 46-50, M
@CorvusBlackthorne so true but I might miss some useful stuff if I clear out
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
I'll tell you what's rubbish. I posted this 17 hours ago, and only one person has seen it. What are the odds? Either this new algorithm is shit, or I'm being shadowbanned.
