As you get older the existential dread of not getting things done fades. I'm fact, I'm now proud that I blew off putting things away for so long that I've moved five times and I still have stuff from those boxes I packed during the first move still in the same boxes 👍

Obviously those things will come with me to the next home. I can't just throw away old cables! They don't go bad! Some day I'm going to be the hero that still has the proprietary cable that connects a specific model year, early 90s vintage mini video camera to RCA and composite connectors!

If you're me someone will find the Grail cable at the estate sale, because no one I know needs it and also I don't talk to them anyway.

I actually had to find that cable this year because my mom wanted to digitize old home movies.

Definitely a justification to keep the rest.
