@streetfestival @the_q I'm glad you get it. I love "be more buy less"!

Many of us don't need nearly as much as we think we do. It takes a bit of growth & calming down tho, which is hard to do with all the noise

Media hypes us on the "cost of living crisis" and while I agree basic needs price goes up which sucks, but half the problem is really a "cost of confirming crisis". That is, wanting to live in a very specific and often sub-optimal way just to be at least "on par" with everyone else.
