Have you ever had an object lost, stolen, damaged, or destroyed that felt somewhat similar to a human you’re related to getting hurt or dying? Ie qualitatively similar sense of subjective loss even if less intense? If so, what was the object, and what was your history with it?

We seem to have lost at least 1 box in the move to LA, and appear to be missing a couple of random things (a pair of binoculars and an iron). Weirdly, the sense of uncertainty of the full set of unknown-known objects that might have been in the box makes for an odd sense of loss

Nothing actually important or of real sentimental value appears to be missing, so it’s probably ignorable, but still a box of externalized soul with indeterminate contents is gone, so the unknown-known objects seem to be imbued with the average significance of objects we own.
