i hate how much i fret and waste emotion and rage over making sure someone else’s shit becomes my stuff.

i hate it.

As a rule I don’t buy specialized kitchen gadgets that are only good at making one type of food. It has saved me both money and cupboard space.
I suggest you make an exception for a rice cooker. It’s been one of our best purchases and it can do other things besides cook rice too

it can do other things besides cook rice too

So, not a one kind specific kitchen tool…

Yes, but one might assume it is, based on what it’s called.
Even then though…rice. People all around the world eat rice every day
Surely an egg timer can time more than just eggs?
