I currently own five (two winter and three summer) and I'm thinking of getting rid of one of the summer sets for storage reasons. How many do you have?

edit to ask second follow up question, as I see a lot of people getting by with just one or two: how many do the people you know have and is it unusual to just have 1 or 2? I thought I was already very minimalist with 5 because my parents have 18 at last count.

The last thing I would want is for her to discover she's a witch and has powers, because something that I've seen in the show and love about it is the idea of completely ordinary people being resilient in the face of life. And the boogeyman episode would be much less impactful to me if she's also supernaturally powered, even if she doesn't know it yet, than if she is just a regular woman facing off against an entity and winning, with determination. I love the whole shotgun montage for that.

My actual second possibly even more controversial opinion is that while the bullies were horrible, lying that you also got stalker phone calls is an absolutely insane thing to do. If my friends were being stalked, someone co-opted that for attention, then they were murdered and the girl seemingly co-opts that too, I would not like that person. I wouldn't want to be around them either. And maybe if I lived on Widow's Bay in that scenario maybe I would be a little spiteful and childish towards her too.

I haven't been stalked but I and a friend both had different experiences with men who were very persistent with unwanted attention and the idea of someone at the time taking that and using it to get attention would make me hate that person, let alone if my friend had later been murdered.

And we don't see her really acknowledge how fucked up it was what she did. It makes her a very well-rounded character, because everyone's got good sides and bad sides, but I'd like to see representation of how the girls that died were also human and she was uncaring towards their fear up until it became her fear, and for her to acknowledge that. On the other hand, I don't see the boogeyman getting revisited next season.

Like a lot of people here I learned to clean later on, and it really helps me to 'body double' with someone when I do it. One channel that I really like and actually encourages this is MMC, I won't say the full name because this isn't a hate post just a vent post but it's one of the bigger channels anyway. One of his recent videos involved one of the owners / purchasers of the items who assisted with the clean and kept talking about the backstory of each item or how much it cost, and MMC kept validating him by telling him every thing was very cool. I understand why because it came across as if MMC thinks and I thought that the guy had hoarding tendencies and he wanted to prevent him from having a negative emotional reaction to not being validated. So I do get it. But I also found this very triggering, much more than I expected, both because I've been that person and sometimes the other person, in that when in long term periods of stress I start retreating into the idea of history but also wanting to value history because I feel like some of my older family members never got the validation they deserved. (My hoarder exclusively buys new stuff but I've definitely been the 'very cool ... very cool ... very cool' person. So I saw myself in both people.

I'm not posting this to his subreddit if he has one, because it's not a criticism of him, I'm just posting it to vent about the strong feelings it brought up, maybe some people here can relate. I'm glad he was able to help that guy but I hope there aren't more videos like that with the hoarder in them in the future.
