Another off topic post.

I just saw this video and I had no idea that Kamala was actually considering implementing these measures.

Hi there! There's going to be a slowdown in videos until September 10th. I'm just on a tiny vacation because of Labor Day and will be back afterwards. There's a way where if you take off the tail end of a Friday you essentially can have a 10 day vacation and only miss 4 days of work.

Hot take. This is the "Analog Starter Kit" by Ugmonk. You are paying $99 for a deck of index cards. Oh and a wooden holder. psst. Don't get conned.

I posted this in a forum but I'll post it here too:

I'm going to share some general advice that really helped me:

1. *Go for quality* Always prioritize the best quality over being cheap.

2. *Don't just settle for "use what you have."* While it's common advice, sometimes what you have isn't good enough. Evaluate carefully—sometimes upgrading is worth it. Sure, you might initially think it's a waste of money, but once you experience the difference, you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner. I've never regretted replacing a crappy kitchen knife with a great one.

3. *Invest in things that save you time.* Even if they cost more, your time is valuable.

4. *Focus on the things you use often.* Items like your socks, chair, bed, pen, monitor, mouse, speakers, and backpack are worth investing in because you use them all the time.

5. *Understand diminishing returns.* The goal isn't to get the most expensive thing but to find where spending more no longer makes a big difference. For example, is the latest iPhone really worth $1,650 when a $125 iPhone XR does almost everything you need? That's where diminishing returns come into play.

6. *Don't be afraid to replace what you have when upgrading.* Often, a better item will completely replace what you already have. For example, I bought a tiny paper shredder that replaced my bulky one, and a new vacuum that replaced four old ones. I also switched to chargers that are a fifth the size of Apple's white bricks. Don't view it as being wasteful. View it as an investment in your quality of life.

7. *Buy cheap items new, and expensive items used (but carefully).*

When buying used, I follow these three rules:

Rule 1: Only buy at a price where you know you could easily resell it for the same amount.

Rule 2: Remember Benjamin Franklin's quote: "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten." I've bought microphones that worked perfectly but looked shabby, and over time, their appearance bothered me.

Rule 3: If you're considering something that's not exactly what you want, don't settle. My cousin once told me, "You wanted white, so wait for the white car. You'll regret settling." It's better to hold out for what you truly want.

I think the deal expires today but the often-spoken about ICON Flexing head bit kit set is currently $25 but only in-store. It expires uh...today. So might be worth a gander. or not. Cheerio!

Why Sometimes It Makes More Sense (FOR ME) to Buy a New Cheap Comforter Rather Than Cleaning It

Here’s a controversial take for you.

I love using these inexpensive $20 comforters from Amazon, called Linenspa. They’re perfect for summer and winter—just add or remove layers as needed.

Here’s the dilemma: What to do when they get dirty? These comforters need professional cleaning since they don’t work in home washers.

So, let’s break down the math:

Option 1: Drop-Off Cleaning Service

Cost: $30 or more.
Time: Includes travel and waiting, but more convenient than laundromat.

Option 2: Laundromat Cleaning

Cost: Approximately $8 in quarters.
Time: Around 3 to 4 hours (washing, drying, and additional time for travel and waiting).


Just buying a new one.

$20, delivered to your doorstep, with minimal effort.



Analysis:

Is it worth spending gas and $8 at a laundromat while wasting 3 hours of your life? Or paying MORE than the cost of a new comforter for professional cleaning?

For me, the time wasted and hassle make buying a new comforter the better choice, even if it is wasteful. (dodges pitchforks and tomatoes)
