I just threw out a bunch of old t-shirts from when I was in student politics: some I designed, others I physically screen printed, some both.

If there’s one thing I know professionally it’s that thoughtlessly maintaining items for supposed heritage tends to crowd out other alternatives that could take their place.
‘Heritage’ isn’t a fossil fuel. There’s more and more of it being created all the time, by way of significant memories. Conserving for the sake of conserving is a wasteful act

@liamvhogan I have a big bag full of PT shirts from every army unit I worked at that I keep looking at to throw away. My brain wants to set them all on fire and keep them forever at the same time.

@liamvhogan @Kels_316 a productive alternative: donate them to a willing railway preservation group who will use them to wipe down steam locomotives, then once they become too dirty for that, put them on sticks and use them for lighting up boilers
