I hope I’m not triggering anti-capitalists here because I know how implacable they can be. Pointing out how you can make your own life a little bit better is, in my mind, not at odds with all the very valid complaints about 2025 American capitalism.
Many of the folks in r/simpleliving are wealthy enough to afford whatever they need, but that doesn’t automatically make your life simple and leisurely either. You actually have to go after simplicity intentionally no matter what.
