when wealthy people die, their furniture is begging to be adopted by someone who cares about quality but doesn’t want to spend a bazillion dollars. also estate sales are just fascinating and heartbreaking and beautiful so you also get a fun day out of it

There’s something so cool about walking through someone’s former home and navigating their possessions. You get a feel for who they were and what they valued, and a sneak peek into their own personal treasure trove. Someone’s last remaining items can have an entirely new life, and the world can have one less item in the landfill. It’s like forming your very own chosen family of heirlooms and cherished valuables!

Hadn’t been to any since I was younger but started going with one of my friends recently, found some really cool stuff and I like the idea that even though people’s families didn’t want their stuff that it can bring joy to a stranger their life never touched. I like to think about what they thought about when they picked out art for their walls, and books for their shelves, and what their favorite mug might’ve been.

every time i go to an estate sale i get closer to finding god. looking through someone’s entire life and home feels wrong to some but i think its beautiful! if people we love can’t live forever, their trinkets and memories can.

Sometimes you eat a small breakfast really early or you just have a coffee, and it’s nice to eat lunch at 10:30 or 11

I want more people to use it but I also want it to stay intimate and not overwhelming? I like how I can follow strangers without second guessing, or post whatever and not overthink it. I like that it’s simple &easy and not over curated. I like that it doesn’t incentivize weird self obsessed behavior like other social media and we can just share silly cute thoughts!
