    I ended up with three crucifixes by various happenstance, and then I kinda just started buying cool ones whenever I’d see any in thrift stores.

    Seeds, firewood, axes and tools, information, collaborators and community, ammo, firearms; though my collection is set and not planning more. Silver and gold but haven’t bought in years.

    Actively, at the moment nothing. Well, maybe buttons.

    Reluctantly, I have a weakness for typewriters, I like to fix them and I have what I consider way too many in the restoration queue.

      Generalized anxiety disorder seems like such a cop out to me. Surely they can break that apart into a bunch of new disorders and syndromes to collect?

        It might sound weird but I like their texture and I will sit there and fidget with an envelope or a piece of paper in my hand. I have over 50 of them so far in my bag now 😆

        The ones I don’t like the feel of get tossed into the recycling bin.

          A textural difference makes a lot of sense.

      Good judgement come from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement.

      I started collecting CDs a few months back because I got fed up of not owning my music, now I’m looking into refurbished mini pcs to use as a server for it all.

      A charity shop nearby sold 10 CDs in mystery packs for the price of one normal cd so my collection grew pretty quick, some of the stuff is shit but some of the CDs were multi disk compilations that have really helped bulk it out.

        i personally like buying exactly what I want, if my trash shelf gets too full its time to clean up! if I had the room though I’d totally just buy batches of them wherever I can find

          I’ve started collecting specific things now but at the start I just wanted to build up my library. It’s pretty rare to find my favourites even when buying new stuff though. The random packs helped me to find some new songs at least.
