Yeah once I stopped buying from Amazon I realised how many of my supposed needs were just wants. Like, it's ok if I can't get literal brass tacks for a project this week. It's not urgent. Nothing ever was. I didn't need any of this shit in the 90s and I don't need it now. I just got used to having it, and had to adjust to intentionally going without it (for ethical reasons).
