A video about how decluttering isn't enough to free our life from stuff if we don't change the way we acquire and keep it all, about how all we buy is futur clutter and about how we already own virtually everything we need and have wanted.

I have no idea why people buy useless trinkets

They are really pretty sometimes but do not deserve the time spend dusting. Unfortunately clutter can take many other forms including things that seems useful but are not deserving our time or energy either.

My personal rule of thumb is that if the new useful thing I bought requires a new routine or lifestyle change, I'll probably end up not using it
