I installed a little shelving unit to make much better use of space in the corner of my computer room and, in figuring out how to use it, proceeded to go through about 1/3 of the disaster area / avalanche-waiting-to-happen that is my computer room closet and threw out a huge amount of clutter and now it’s much less of a disaster and my fountain pen inks are accessible and not precarious

So that’s cool

@kistaro Oh mood. I was digging through my closet a few weeks ago intending to check some things on my PS2.
I got so frustrated getting to it, I took to throwing out basically half of everything in there. A third of which was basically empty boxes for things, on the off-chance I needed to send something in for repairs. Since I never do, it was just taking up space...

@Taylor Yup, mine had an awful lot of empty boxes too. Also a zillion outdated USB cables, chargers I wouldn’t trust enough to plug into a wall without a fire extinguisher immediately at hand, and a lifetime supply of dried-up cheap pens.

@kistaro I am concerned about the sort of state those cables and adapters must've been in if you would consider them a fire hazard.
