I’d like to see a picture of this guy’s office, especially his desk.

You need a yard sale, let it go dude! But I understand, decluttering is sometimes an emotional endeavor. There are therapy dumpsters or Restores for this level of collection.

I started bartering. I also work up consignments, give it 6 months and then donate if sales do not pan out. Musical oganizations take instruments etc... autistic centers, etc... they’re very appreciative of any support.

Keep the weights though...

It's a ridiculous, silly article by Jenna Drenten, Associate Professor of Marketing, Loyola University Chicago. She doesn't dwell on the racist angle. All she says is:
"What lies beneath the surface of this anti-messiness, pro-niceness stance is a history of classist, racist and sexist social structures. In my research, influencers who produce pantry porn are predominantly white women who demonstrate what it looks like to maintain a “nice” home by creating a new status symbol: the perfectly organized, fully stocked pantry.

Perhaps it’s not surprising that pantry porn found its foothold during the COVID-19 pandemic, when shortages in the supply chain surged. Keeping stuff on hand became a symbol of resilience for those with the money and space to do so. This allure of strategic stockpiling is evident in other collector subcultures like doomsday preppers and extreme couponers.

I conclude that 1) lots of "Influencers" are trying to make a buck, 2) associate professors don't have enough legitimate things to research and are desperate to find a new angle, 3) there are always neurotic people who take things to an extreme, 4) women still head the household, and 5) "Good Housekeeping" magazine has given way to the web.

See: "‘Pantry porn’ on TikTok and Instagram makes obsessively organized kitchens a new status symbol," by Jenna Drenten, Associate Professor of Marketing, Loyola University Chicago, March 14, 2022.

“but to continue to manufacture chaos where none existed”

That is a psychological condition often seen with children of alcoholics and drug addicts.

If everything is too neat and clean it freaks them out...

This FOOL is what you get when you exclude excellence as a goal in order to be racist in accommodating a specific racial gaggle. NOW we have a problem race and excellence is mocked even in organizing a pantry.

The woke left “anyone that is not a fat stupid worthless slob like me is a racist”

<>"I want her to show us Oprah’s pantry. Perhaps the Wookie’s?"<>

You posted that too close to the 'panties' posts.

I misread (shudder).
