Recently I feel so disgusted by consoomerism, it's hard not to judge others. Maybe it's my depression talking but why even own so much stuff that isn't a daily necessity? Feels just pointless.
I wish I could back to simpler days or live in a less developed place, I can't deal with all the retarded commercials and choices you are bombarded with everyday. Try to buy tissues? Here, go and choose between 30 different types and brands!
And thanks to Shein, Aliexpress and Temu even broke teens like my sis can shop online daily and discard it by the next season. I also hate that not acting like that, shopping being your main hobby, is nearly seen as weird if you're a woman.
>>1872866I feel like stationary is kind of the earliest type of female consoomerism, you could already see collection videos a decade ago. Did you catch the picture frame on her desk? She has a child, so this woman is likely 25+. Unless she and all the others are all teachers (or actual artists) why tf do they need more than 1-2 pens? Everybody is working on their computer nowadays, there is no way she can ever use up even half of this.

>>1874860I find North American and Aussie housing to be the peak of consumerism. It's way too big and empty, leading people to either buy more furniture to fill it up or live in a suicide house a la r/MaleLivingSpaces.

The decor is something else, too. Moids who want to flex on Reddit will buy useless designer furniture to cosplay Patrick Bateman with except in middle of nowhere Missouri, or DIY that awful wood and glitter resin coffee table. If they're married they'll have EAT stenciled on the kitchen walls courtesy of their spouse.
I'm not even a bitter Europoor, I just miss my grandma's home from the eighties. It was a warm, welcoming little house that was just the right size for her and grandpa. It got gutted, expanded and given the landlord special once my uncle sold it to a millennial couple. Looks like a 3D render now.

It's also not military surplus, it's a shitty bag, sold on a military surplus store because it's cheap and green.
I'm all for shitting on consumerism, but patagonia makes decent products, if your the type of person who actually uses the features that drive up the price. And it's quite easy to find high quality reviews for the products, so your not entirely reliant on their advertising material:

It's bizarre actually how social media influences perfume.

It's free to spray an expensive perfume on your wrist in a store to see if it suits you, why not do that instead of spending half your rent on one perfume (or a million dupes of that same perfume) that you might hate?
It's also really weird to go on Fragrantica and see all the comments praising a perfume because of how cool and tactile and aesthetic the packaging looks. You're meant to rate the contents of the bottle. You rate the bottle if it's shit, like if there's a known issue with the spray or if the cap is impossible to remove or if it leaks in transit.

Sage for long ass blog but I’m realising people around me are such die hard consoomers and it’s killing me and I can’t bring this up irl without sounding like a bitter bitch. I’m not anti collections or anti fun at all, everyone has their ‘thing’ but be reasonable. I had once a cute elderly Serbian neighbour that had collected seagull ornaments of all things and it was awesome because it was so random/niche and she lovingly dusted them every day and named them all kek
But exhibit a: I work at a video game and merchandise chain in my country and you know, yeah use your discount for stuff you really want and have waited for or whatever, but fuck me some of my co workers are insane. Dropping $500 on three preorders of various mass produced ugly anime statues whilst you already have hundreds worth on hold/others rotting in your room unboxed. Pokémon TCG fanboys are the worst, getting multiples of every ‘elite’ box ($200 a pop) just in case cardboard with a bit of glitter is in it. Half of them can’t name the Pokémon on the cards beyond gen 1, just know that it’s ‘valuable’. One coworker is constantly dressing ‘goth’ which isn’t a problem, but she buys the first shitty thing she sees on shein that’s black and lacy, wears it once, then ‘declutters’ and comes to work bragging about how she cleared enough space to get her next shipment of crappy clothes. She uses cosmetics off temu which sounds like a skin disorder waiting to happen.
Exhibit b: some of my closest friend, live exclusively on tik tok it seems. Like fucking clockwork, they all ran out and got crocs at the same time and jerked off about every new release/wanted ugly collab ones and would get super sad when they missed out after waiting hours online when they released. One even said ‘I don’t really like the colour but it’d be so cool to have them’. Come 2024, they don’t wear them. One started a job working in the outdoors in winter and, instead of getting a sensible down jacket from a place like HellyHansen like I suggested went for a shiny aesthetic one from Patagonia bc her favourite TikTok twink wore it and was surprised when she got pneumonia. Now, surprise surprise, I see them sipping Stanley cups (or not, because they’re empty and are carried around for show because it’s ‘too heavy with water’ wtf). Save me anons, I love these people and they’re not at all bad, it’s just so fucking cringe.

Most importantly, the internet became far more bigger than we can ever imagine. It used to be that communities were offline and full of individuals trying to create a name for a shared experience or cultural zeitgeist which produced diversity in art, expression, and thought. The internet was just an extension of that. Now you have an "aesthetic" with preset ideas, experiences, and rituals which promises "consoomunity" at the expense of fostering a real voice and power that is needed more than ever. It's sad because old alt groups were weird but had character since they usually were resisting the status quo, now they're just plain weird because that's what they think being alt is.

>>1881018Nta but I also watched various alt groups closely in 00s and they felt like false advertisement, because while that people
looked different, the majority was just the same as everyone else in the worst sense while feeling like superior nonconformists for stupidest shit like hating pink and rhinestones or pretending to find beauty in mutilated corpses. The members of subcultures were instantly recognizable and yeah, you could easily figure out their tastes and interests, but precisely because many of them were
not individuals, they were like copies of each other (I don't mean fashion because it's normal), and it was still based on a certain aesthetic just like today, only today it's not about a specific community with a specific lifestyle and set of interests and it doesn't follow the solid formula of music + fashion + aesthetic.
There was a big fixation on fashion in many such communities, and it would often lead to gatekeeping, because the coolest or the "truest" ones were those who could afford all the clothes and other paraphernalia in the first place (well, or at least make it if it was possible). It's especially true of skinheads (considering the origins, it's ridiculous how it turned into pretty much just buying expensive clothes and shoes), goths, and I thought scene kids as well because I don't know about any discourse you've mentioned but to me it seemed like they were mostly just obsessed with shoes and accessories, and I remember other alt groups criticizing them for this fixation on fashion and lack of "philosophy" behind it (while not being exactly deep themselves). There were still poor attempts at copying the style or mixing styles together (like this tiktok girl itt) and those people were ruthlessly ridiculed, especially if they weren't conventionally attractive. Music was a huge part and there were more "rules" within certain subcultures but all in all, I don't think it was much deeper than today's aesthetics tbh, or I just don't see how it's better.

>>1883061Branded sliders are the most baffling designer consoom items imo. You can try them on and compare how comfy they are to the much cheaper non-branded ones. 99.999% of the time people find some way to justify paying three times more for ugly foam shoes with PRADA written on them. The sliders are already scuffed and filthy just from being displayed, if it wasn't for the obnoxious logo nobody would think about buying them. It's the same with all the other tacky designer tat that has massive logos smeared all over. I'm amazed that older women buy this shite because they grew up in a time when you expected a certain level of quality and durability no matter the price.
Do you see many retards filming in your store, nonna? I've seen a few people in department stores literally clipping bag charms to bags on the shelf and filming themselves putting their wallets and keys into the side pockets of these designer bags as if they owned it. And there are tons of tiktokers who do retarded dances with baskets filled to the brim with expensive trendy items then put them all back and leave.

My biggest brand hate are those Marc Jacobs tote bags. They are so popular and I will never understand why so many people buy them. There's nothing special about them compared to a regular canvas tote bag except the obnoxious branding and insane price tag.

>>1882842I worked in a hallmark store that sold kitsch crap to old ladies and every year we'd sell ornaments. Some of these regular customers would spend THOUSANDS on pieces of collector plastic and had been collecting since the dawn of the ornament line. It stunned me just how much money we made alone off Christmas sales when the rest of our profit margin was dwindling drastically. The absolute madhouse the store became around our designated ornament events was a sight to behold.
The worst was the year we had to discontinue a Gone with the Wind ornament due to controversy surrounding the film and the absolute insistence of some of the customers that they still wanted the ornament. Some stores appear to have actually sold her under the table, since she's available online for close to $2.5k but we were threatened with firing for doing it.

Question for non Burgerland nonnas. Did your local supermarkets also get into the weird consoom trend of doing fucking "Superbowl weekend" with suggested snacks or like American football/Superbowl related products? Especially when like legit less than 10% of the population in my country watches American football? It wasn't as bad last year, I noticed that almost every supermarket in my area had a Superbowl weekend related articles. No offense to Burgerland citizen, but you guys probably don't have your grocery stores do that for our Eurofag Soccer tournaments (or the African soccer cup that's currently running) right?

>>1883594hyped kanken anon here: for me it's that it's super functional. the zippers go all the way down the sides so i can just shrug off one the shoulder straps, pull the bag to the front and open the zipper to get inside my bag. i can also carry it comfortably with the handle, while most backpacks with a rounded top part have a really small loop there that makes carrying it with that handle very painful to the hand if your bag is heavy. i also did most of my groceries by foot and i could shove so much food in there to the point that people asked me what bag that was because half of my cart miraculously disappeared in the backpack. again, because the zippers go all the way down to the sides, you can just lay it flat and start putting stuff in there very comfortably.
of course there are downsides to this (no inner pockets, easily can be opened by others aka getting pick pocketed, very thin straps that many find uncomfortably, narrow side pockets that only fit an umbrella or very slim bottles) but i was genuinely surprised how well it met all my needs. you definitely do not need 50 of these though like
>>1808028 and i know many vsco girls and adjacent bought the entire rainbow because of the hype. it is a hundred euro bag in my country (with the bigger/laptop versions being even more expensive) but for once, the hype actually made me buy something i love. i actually ended up buying my second one a few weeks ago because my younger cousin wanted a kanken so i gave her my old one so she can try it out before her parents spend 100 bucks on a bag she finds meh at best. she loves it even though it went through years of use so i'm not getting it back, kek.

Only difference is, here in Yurop we don't have any big time zone difference with Africa (which would justify a lot more a marketing ploy for Eurofags to watch the African soccer cup tbh) whereas for Burgerland's superbowl we have a huge time zone difference, and the niche fans dedicated to it have to stay up until fucking 4am (which to me doesn't make it a solid marketing/consoom ploy because you already cast out different potential customers, working parents, children, etc.).

Questions to the nonnas who are totally/mostly out of the consoom loop, how do you not go insane looking at all of this? Does hiding the name of every brand that you buy help? I've been slowly turning like picrel lately. I feel like money and greed just turn people inhuman, middle classes should never have had access to this level of consumerism at all in the first place. I feel so bad for all the dumb shit I bought over the years and I can tell now how much consumerism made me stupider, but it seems like I will never be able to escape it.
Sorry for blog posting, but this thread had such a huge impact on me. I've been binge watching all of those consoom videos and now I've reached a point of pure hatred and disgust against all industries especially the one targeting women. They will do anything to exploit us.
On one hand I feel absolutely liberated because it feels so easy to rationalise my past shame about being an ugly poor woman, I don't feel the need to buy makeup, clothes or most objects anymore. It's so easy to see how all of this was bullshit all along, I thought I knew it but I never truly internalised it. But on the other hand I'm getting so bitter and sad to see how everything is ruled by consumerism culture, how the environment is dying because of it, and how much people are suffering. I feel absolute dread everytime I buy food that is packaged in plastic because I can't afford the organic plastic free ones from fancy shops. I resent having to buy anything at all even if it's actually something that I need. I know that the notion of "personal carbon footprint" has been invented by big oil industries to deflect and I start raging because at the end of the day I'm just one person and my actions are meaningless. I try to be silent about it because I know most people don't want to hear me complain but it's been really eating me inside this past month.

(not saying pregnancy, mostly very bad periods and hormones affecting mental problems)
And then I thought some more and realized. That this society created millions of products to keep women pretty and ageless and fuckable, but they don't acctually care about the results of that fuckability and the effects of it on our health. Look pretty, no one cares you're rotting inside out.

No. 1887345
>>1887331Some of these are true, but most are exaggeratedand/or outdated. Because of planned obsolescence and the fact that it's cheaper to buy kitchen appliances as a set, a lot of American households end up with an extra fridge or freezer, which people will often put in a garage or basement, typically for beverages. The thing about a dedicated tupperware cupboard is true, too. You just accumulate that shit even when you don't buy it, because people will give you cookies or whatever and never ask for the container back. I don't personally have a TV on the counter because my living room TV is visible from the kitchen, but many people with old "closed concept" homes will have a small TV in their breakfast nook, either on the counter or mounted to the wall.
The spatula, dinnerware, and crockpot things are nonsense, though. No one in their right mind owns more than two spatulas. Or more than one crockpot for that matter. No one under the age of 40 has a "curio cabnet" full of ugly Hummel garbage anymore, that's boomer shit. So is owning "good china." That nonsense is for people with pensions and no student loan debt.

i got over the real psychotic aspect of this but it still makes me nauseated if i think about it for too long, and am still deterred from entering shopping centres/supermarkets. so i guess to answer your question, i dont not go insane.

If anything, this only shows how she gifts stuff she wishes was given to her, it's so obvious, but I really doubt she would possibly get someone to want to spend like 100 dollars on stuff that she already owns.

might have posted about this before but i am a tolkien autist so i have been lurking the r/tolkienbooks subreddit for a long while, and the past few years especially it's become absolute consoom hell. people like picrel trying to justify purchasing the same sought-after hobbit edition (with extremely miniscule differences between releases, if any) a million fucking times. and several other examples like people who collect the same book in every language for no reason, people who have way too many editions of lotr, which often is divided into three volumes so it's 3x books per every edition, etc. it's become a so called hobby and there's daily posts about people "getting into tolkien collecting" which just means purchasing different editions of the same 10 or so books from amazon. a lot of the posts displaying several bookshelves stuffed full of books have just been "collecting" them for a year or so. basically it's just people going on shopping binges online to qualify as a nerd or a fan or whatever, without showing even the slightest interest in the actual content of the books, only the outside is important.
>>1903965>>1903967not the worst ofc but extremely ugly and full of useless plastic shit only there for the display. you wouldn't be able to retrieve a book from the shelves without knocking shit over, which tells me they're not even in use. and why do they need 6 of the same green plushie?

>>1903965Playing devils advocate for a little bit, but I honestly don't see a problem with having a display wall like this. Every house I've been into has had at least one wall with shelves of shit the people never touch at all. Usually it's a few old books, vases and various knick-knacks, or for for people with certain interests a few items of choice like a goth having crystals or a boat-enthusiast having ship models. A hunter may have a wall of several mounted animal skulls and a couple of hunting rifles, I've also seen an elderly couple who owned horses have an entire shelf of collectible horse figurines. I think this is far more fun and personal than the people who just put a trendy but boring safe vase, I'd rather see a house with personality.
"Not a parent" also doesn't mean they don't have kids in the family who regularly come over, or sometimes people foster kids from troubled homes and want them to feel safe.

>>1917108NTA but I agree that dermatologists fucking suck unless you just need a prescription for Retin A or have acne that needs an antibiotic. They always tried to push accutane on me despite that shit being horrible for everyone and not something I’d ever consider due to health issues I already have. It fucking sucks, almost any product breaks me out but I can tolerate pretty much any active. I don’t get it lol. I saw the same derm for like half my life until I finally quit going to his practice when he somehow missed that I had severe infected eczema and tried to diagnose me with some weird form of herpes (???) so I recommend that anyone with eczema or allergic skin issues see an allergist and not a dermatologist. They’re better about actually taking cultures and running diagnostic tests to figure out what’s going on. The severe impetigo that I somehow got as a shut in took 4 different antibiotics and 6 months of absolute misery to fix and I would’ve been fucked if I’d listened to my (supposedly good!) derm.
I don’t use any expensive brand name serums but instead research specific peptides and purchase those. But really, Retin A, moisturizer, and SPF is probably enough.

but for some reason, coping has become sort of a spiritual practice to some. ive been there. i think the only thing that led me out of shopping addiction and other shit i wont blog about was others leading by example. women in my life had more to worry about then i did, but i saw them volunteering or getting into rock hunting or whatever the hell and thought "man id really rather be doing that".
so i guess you can try to engage in a little healthy self care of your own, and drop updates about it to your friend. maybe invite her along on some stuff. you can gently psy op her while also taking care of yourself.

Ignoring that she got it discounted, I find it so hard to understand why someone would spend their last $45 on pure shit food like mcdonalds?
I've noticed it alot in under 30s women who will say they are spending their last bit of cash on a "lil treat". It's so baffling to me.
I was trying to make friends with a girl who then told me she spent her last $75 on getting her nails done as a treat and will now go hungry for 4 days because she has no money for food.
Is this an actual mental disorder? It's so weird? Just don't?
