So I'm reading decluttering books. So far they are obvious Info or written by mentally ill people.
Is society ever going to admit being obsessive about tidiness is also a disorder?
I've started the kondo book and she is crazy. She tells stories of how she was reading house keep magazines at the age of 5. How she would throw her families things away thst were in storage. Her idea of feminist is to live in a space that looks like a magazine or hotel room. She thinks people are meant to live in what is essentially staged areas to sell products. She does not understand those places are not real. She, like most minimalist do not understand the idea of keeping something to avoid spending money later.
Also, her method doesn't actually work for anyone who collects. Everything in a collection could spark joy. That is why most of us buy toys. It is why we amass so many toys. They spark joy. Using joy as a yard stick just means someone will fill their home with things they like . And this is to say nothing for someone with hobbies or crafts or skills. Do we put all the gunpla and model equipment and paint in the trash? The sowing machine? The tools?
What is everyone else's thoughts on this? I ask /toy/ because toy buyers are often attacked by minimalist.
