For example, when I’m at work I don’t feel like it, or if I do I can hold it back without any problem, but when I get home the urge seems to be uncontrollable and impossible to hold back.

      So do you have the opposite happen to you, where the urge increases as you get closer to work? :-P

      Edit: pulls out marker, well looks like I need to make another edit here then, from home to work…

            I’m thinking specifically targeting the “Live Laugh Love” Rae Dunn kind of aesthetic.

            Weird tangent: I was asked to design and build a dining room cupboard for my parents’ house. So I went out to the internet to look at examples to come up with design elements I liked, and I noticed something: I couldn’t find any evidence that anyone actually uses dining room cabinets for anything. It’s supposed to be a buffet or server with dish storage above, but they’re only ever used as trophy cases to consumerism. Set dressing to make the Tiktok studio look like a home. And I really want to graffiti a cock and balls on the very concept itself.

            Do something like this but hang the cute little ceramic pig on a cute little steel meathook, write “BABY FACTORY” and “SPERM DONOR” on the mugs, make the signs say things like “Purchase” and “Keep Up Appearances” and “Like Share Subscribe Follow”, use fake dead plants, stuff like that.

            It’s the closest thing to art I’ve had the desire to do.

              I think back when people had less space and fewer things, they would hold the good fancy items for special events. Whereas now everyone has far more than they need… except ironically health insurance, a stable job, oh yeah a place to live, food, etc.

                Everyone everywhere stores their actual dishes in their built-in kitchen cabinets and have for longer than I’ve been alive.

                Since the dawn of the 20th century, the dining room cupboard went through the following stages of evolution:

                • That’s where we keep the dishes, and when we serve dinner we put the food there on the cabinet’s countertop so you can get your plate and serve yourself right there nice and convenient.
                • That’s the case where we keep mom’s good china, we use those for special occasions like Thanksgiving and Christmas and when the pastor comes over for dinner, the normal dishes we got from Sears are in the kitchen.
                • Those dishes were ordered from a catalog in the 1950’s for your grandmother and are therefore more sacred than the lining of God’s ballsack. Even thinking of eating off of them is a heresy.
