Anybody else experienced a marked mental shift in the last 6 months, being suddenly more willing to own more stuff? I used to be a strong "lean home" person who hated every added kilogram of matter. Now I'm much more willing to own stuff. And not just pandemic-resilence stuff.

I think covid has triggered a more general rematerialization wave for a significant number of people in the US. It's not just inventory people are stocking up on for supply chain vagaries. It's a more general willingness to own things. Home depot is up 30% in foot traffic.

I think it’s correlated with how much time people spend at home, and to create comforts in the spaces they inhabit for extended periods.
