My opinion doesn’t matter, but like. I’ve seen so many things that are like “overconsumption core” or “underconsumption core” and yeah overconsumption isn’t good. But you are allowed to consume. Obviously with like nuance to this, like. If you want a Stanley mug then get one, you just don’t need 10, the goal was to use those instead of single use plastics so if you buy 10 and throw half out after a year, that isn’t great. But like.

You should be buying things with intention and thought, to be used for a long time.

Anyway the entire point is that you can and should consume but as a thoughtful and intentional consumer that is prepared to carefully consider what they need and want within their life.
