Welcome to #checkin for Sunday, August 3, 2025!
Good evening/afternoon/morning everyone and welcome to today's #checkin. Back home in Paderborn after having a nice ice cream for lunch with our friends. Very yummy!
We had a very nice weekend together and talked about this and that and of course the daily struggles with work and keeping order in the household and the definition of untidy...
For those who are living/have lived with a person together, who would you consider to be more "chaotic" or untidier? You or the other person?

in reply to Christoph S • • •I attempt often to go thru stuff and toss. Grimm refers to it as 'nesting' which is an infuriating term to be used as I'm NOT 'nesting' but 'throwing away!!'
He doesn't throw away. He has a bloody garbage bag with mail in it he claims he has to go thru. For the last 7months. It's not been gone thru.
I might just make it disappear.

in reply to Christoph S • •The computer minded people I hang out with oftentimes are, in their entirety, called The Chaos. The term is used as a term of honour. No particular sense of order or orderliness is implied. When mingling, chaos is less suit and tie and more cargo pants and t-shirts. And fishnet see through and all the rainbow too.
A hacker called sushee summarized that nicely in a blog post ca. 2005. if you're a hacker and use chaos as the reason to be unorganized you're holding it wrong.
Me, Id be the more chaotic person in this relationship, in an episodic way. . When recently transitioning from one job to the next, getting an IT equipment zoo in order and sent back was due.
.
Boxes, filling material and laptops everywhere. This mildly infuriating state was temporary, fortunately, but too good to not share
