    I purposefully keep my spaces open because I like the feeling. I like not having every inch of my house not need something in it.

    I like to think of it like goldfish. A goldfish will grow to be the size of the tank you put it in, and that’s good for a goldfish, but I don’t want to be a goldfish - I don’t need to jam stuff into every corner of the house just because a corner happens to be kind of empty.

      Technically that’s not good for the goldfish 🥴 they grow to the size of smaller tanks then it stresses their bodies to not be able to keep going to their natural size. I’d have to look it up what the recommended tank size is but hope folks look it up before getting one!

      cool. I find people who live that way to be really offputting and their spaces off putting. it feels like they live in a hotel. it’s creepy af.

      i like people who have stuff and their home looks like people actually live there instead of it being staged for sale.
