The antidote to materialism isn't minimalism; it's maintenance. Keep things. Fix them. Mend them. Grow old with possessions you know well because you've cared for them.
@SordidAmok I have the pair of loaf pans my mom gave me when I moved out of the house. I can't remember if they were new then. If they were, they're 38 year old loaf pans. The comal I use for all my flatbread was my grandmother's.
