even if you don’t have a way to play them it’s still nice to own music and know you’ll always be able to play it if you take care of it

It's good to own at least one. It's also good to play a CD regularly.

there is something so poetic about physically owning the media that you love. it is YOURS.
not only does the collecting make for a great hobby, and playing on a turntable or radio just a more authentic listening experiencing, but it is an effective way to preserve and ENJOY media during an age when everything feels so fleeting.
pictured is the shoebox i keep in my car that i switch out with different cds as my heart pleases.

you really gotta rethink your relationship with music. I started buying records when I was a teenager and built up a pretty decent, curated collection over the years, but it’s really only worth it if you buy the albums you truly love and want to revisit over and over again. If you treat it like an extension of Spotify, where everything is available instantly, you will be broke and disappointed.
The other thing that people don’t tell you about buying vinyl is that it takes a lot of time. Buying used records is the cheapest way to build your collection, but that means rummaging through a lot of junk. This is fun! But it is also time consuming.

walking is such a healing activity when you don’t have to be anywhere, just one foot in front of the other until you feel good
