At the end of the summer gaze upon your flambeed, ratty, yellow, brown, and black shoes as evidence of a summer well lived.

picture is from when they were new - they are in rough shape now but i cannot bring myself to retire them. i got them in 2018 right before i started undergrad; they have been through so much with me and have the stains to prove it... my favorite is the one that may or may not be blood

I’ve worn them so long they went out and back into style. I usually buy a pair every year

been a big fan of using things down to the last drop, especially clothing which our culture increasingly is treating as disposable. i've had these sneakers for like 7 years. they survived hot texas pavement you could fry an egg on while i was working at summer camp, carried me on plenty of hikes, survived getting submerged in salt water in connecticut, and lived most of their golden years in the trunk of my car as the forever on-call backup shoes. their last act of service to me was walking me three miles home after the chain snapped on my bike. by the time the midsole peeled off just now, the treads on the soles had been almost completely worn flat. time to get some new sneakers and grind them to dust for 7 years. thanks for the arch support, New Balance 574s 🫡

I don’t believe in ranking things- restaurants, albums, books, movies, athletes anything, top x lists whatever. I think it’s a waste of time honestly. Even with a completely objective criterion what’s the point. Would rather listen to and read people just talk about their favorite things and why they are special and meaningful to them- everyone has their own, interesting reasons. And this is a great place to do that!
