lola: ba't ang dami mong bag??

me, trying to explain each bag's purpose: 👁️👄👁️

I can explain. I have a work bag, an overnight/gym bag, a hiking bag, a dry bag, a bag for small groceries, bag for big groceries, small tote bag for fast errands, bigger tote bag for longer errands, an alternative work bag, an alternative hiking bag, tote bag for going around the house, etc.

I feel so judged 😔 ginagamit ko naman sila lahat, naka-rotation pa depending kung nasa laundry pa. Plano ko pa nga bumili ng mesh bag for the dry groceries kasi ayaw ko na ng plastic, puno na yung paper/plastic collection bag ko. Add food grade silicone bags and air-tight, reusable, compressible ziplock bags and bawas talaga ang plastic consumption ko. Plastic from deliveries na lang yung problema ko, idk what to do with that tbh.

Basta sumasakit ulo ko sa plastic bag. I can hear a dying scream of some creature suffocating out there in the back of my mind every time a fresh one is used when I could've used a reusable one. I'm not being annoying and preachy about it, it's just a personal thing that just developed dahil sa nakikita kong waste generated sa work. And now I am sad.

- ginagamit ko naman sila lahat
  
  As someone who tries to make do with whatever bag I have (currently have three: a camping bag for multi-day outings, a backpack for single-day outings, and a sling/messenger bag for quick outings), so long as each bag has its use and is being used and taken care of properly, I don't see anything wrong with it.
  
  I'd probably argue for a small set of bags that fits most, if not all, possible usecases, but that's really a matter of taste.
  
  You'd probably have an aneurysm on how I use plastic bags though. I try to maximize their reuse, however. But when I pack for multi-day outings, I tend to use one plastic bag per piece of clothing (a habit I‌ picked up from mountain-climbing geeks), and then group those bags according to function (that is, one plastic bag for tops, another one for bottoms, yet another one for underwear, and still another one for dirty clothes--individually packed). When I get home, I turn those plastic bags inside-out, and then dry them, and when dry fold them neatly for next time.
  
  Mejo matrabaho at mabusisi, but that's how I try to keep plastic use at a minimum.

  I did not have an aneurysm, that's pretty good! Acknowledged naman that in this country plastic use can't be helped, not like it's been banned by the government. Maganda na nga yung pag-reuse mo eh.
  
  May organization pa din pala for function of clothing :o that's pretty cool, pick up ko rin ah thanks 😎 maybe I should find a mountain climbing geek too hahahaha

- Used to have a ton of bags back when I was working in the office. Backpack with rain cover if there's a typhoon/heavy rain, crossbody messenger bag for my daily use, another backpack that has tethered zippers in case I'm bringing something that needs to be super secured, tiny sling bag enough for just my wallet and phone during Fridays because there's free lunch, and backpack during gym days (when I was still a regular). Also have some rare bags for specialized trips like hiking (the massive Deuter one lol) and a travel backpack when going overnight/2-3 day outings.
  
  Now I only have two bags: a small crossbody and a slightly larger sling for carrying the Steam Deck when on a doctor's appointment.

Kinagat ako ng aso ko 💔 First time in 5 years na nangagat siya. Bad dog na talaga ang baby ko.

- Might need to have your dog get checked by the vet, or have dog handling training if the vet doesn't find any issues. Dogs don't just resort to biting for no reason.

  Pinagalitan ko kasi umihi sa loob ng bahay tapos nagalit nung pinapalabas ko. Ayaw niyang lumabas kasi takot sa tunog ng ulan.

Yeah, I am definitely not calling twitter its new name rebranding. It makes me want to get rid of my account but that's also 10+ years worth of kung ano-ano sinasabi ko. Hay socmed. I keep you around just to be updated sa mga balita.

Mukhang cancelled yung mga outdoor activities this weekend dahil sa bagyo. Sana maganda ang weather on its rescheduled days. The temptation to get a 24/7 gym membership is there kaso overall ako ay ✨namamahalan✨ and yes kailangan 24/7 at pa-iba iba ang schedule ko.

It's just not sustainable with my current salary. My outdoor activities + pool use + gym + other extracurricular activities would just drain me lol. Sana pinanganak na lang ako na may kamag-anak w/ country club access, I think I'd make use of their facilities very well lol.

Ang dami kong ganap. Rainy season pero yung playlist ko pang cruel summer 😆 umuwi ako ng madaling araw, basang-basa sa ulan pero ang tugtugin ay summer bops. It was ironic. Ganyan lang ako matuwa.

- Time to start migrating to Mastodon maybe?

- Wala na talaga atrasan yung X brand. Kahit sa phone ko, the icon and name for Twitter automatically changed to X.
  
  Not like I'm still using it, that is.

I'm currently sitting on an upgrade for MIUI14. Parang ayaw ko pang mag-upgrade.

Upgrading means I'd probably have to not just redo all the customization I've done on my phone, but also redo the entire debloating process. Nakakatamad.

For those curious, here's my phone model: Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G

- MIUI EU to the rescue. Less bloat.
  
  You just need to backup ypur phone data first, unlock bootloader, and install the ROM either from PC or phone. I prefer installing/updating my device through PC. Salpak lang ang device na naka-bootloader, run the script from zipped ROM file, and done.
  
  My device is Redmi Note 11.

  Hey!‌ I remember you! You gave me a similar advice before.
  
  Thanks for the reminder to look into that. This is probably the best time to get to that (after I'm done with my weekend stuff).

- Does Xiaomi have a similar feature in Samsung phones wherein it can automatically restore apps, settings, including the placement of docks and icons by logging in your Samsung (in this case, Xiaomi) account? It was really convenient when I got my repaired phone earlier this week. I thought it'll take me the entire day just to restore everything.
  
  2
  
  I think si google mismo, merong ganitong feature. My Asus Z8 inexplicably died last June, but with automatic backup turned on for my Google account.
  
  When I restored the Google backup to my new phone (Mi 13), andun lahat ng apps, along with my wallpaper+lock screen image, pati yung placing ng icons nakuha.
  
  Yung Tachiyomi extensions+history ko lang ang nawala T_T

  It probably has one, but to be honest, I haven't really explored much of it, mostly out of suspicion.
  
  The Xiaomi native apps are actually the first to go on my phone when I debloated it, and so my fear is that once I upgrade it, those will be restored. Xiaomi makes good phones, but their aps are notorious for being infested with advertisements everywhere.
  
  I'll probably have to look more into this--which is another reason why tinatamad ako, lol!

- That's considered brand new to me. been to a few fb groups reselling of audio items (iems/headphones) and that's considered 10/10.
  
  Your example is not good either, they 2 are very different products, also the car is used at the time, clearly. If the user opened the iPad and checked it if its working then that's more similar since in this case the iPad was used.
  
  edit: sample of a rating item condition in HEX an audio group in fb(8.8k members):
  • Brand New/Sealed - Never been opened and brand new
  • Mint - Opened but never used - item complete
  • Excellent - Opened and used but in perfect condition
  • Very Good - Opened, used no issues but cosmetic imperfections
  • Good - Opened and used with issues like minor scratches and chips
  • Fair - Open and used with heavy cosmetic damage or worn parts such as pads
  • Poor - Open and used heavily with cosmetic damage, worn parts, pads, etc.
  • Very Poor - Does not work, needs repair, major damage.
