If that Moose ain't wearin' no parachute pants, he ain't worth breakdancin' battlin' wiff, so THO 'IM AWAY!

It’s just wasteful, considering how many mooseless people there are out there. And think about how the unwanted moose feels…have a heart…let him do moose-good elsewhere responsibly. Justice for moose!

Speaking of babies, I’m sitting here in the hospital with my newest arrival. Apparently, I’ve watched MMC so much, my baby reacts to Mac’s voice in the same way he’s reacted to close family members he recognizes. Meanwhile, my 2yo was soothed to sleep a lot by watching along with me. So in addition to becoming a grandpa, it looks like Mac got promoted to an honorary uncle, too. Thanks, Uncle Mac! 😂

[@samadamms3432]

I completely understand your issues with Jason. I have a nephew named Jason, and he’s the worst. He insists he’s an Argonaut, when he clearly isn’t. I tell him, “You don’t have a ship, you don’t have a crew, and that is not a Golden Fleece, it’s just a Gold Lamé sweater you bought at Goodwill. Also, that’s not a sword, it’s a machete. Ancient soldiers had swords, swords I tell you. And when did any of the Argonauts wear a hockey mask? Never, not even one of them ever wore a hockey mask. There was no hockey in Ancient Greece. But you don’t care do you? Got to wear that damn hockey mask, every, single, day !!!” I swear, the guy is just insufferable.

@@dreca exactly, how many outfits or toys does a baby need? this will give the family more time to spend with the baby, less stress about the house, and a nicer environment for the baby to grow up in.

[@johnkelly9451]

Yes, agree, will be a gift to family and a great gift when baby crawls on a safe floor with no holes or splinters easier to clean cause babies put everything in their mouths including their hands after they crawl on the floor, the binky falls on the floor as well as their gum teething things. A gift to last years for toys, marks from play, the push toys with wheels ect.

[@johnkelly9451]

​​​​​​​@@amandak.4246Yes, for clothes , newborns grow out of them so quick you don't get to use them all. Then winter comes and the parents, grandparents and family will get more clothes. So newer windows will help the draft plus save on the heat bill so they can buy diapers and formula if not breast feeding. Again, a gift to help into the future years for shoes, winter coats, duck boots, glasses, braces, bicycle and all the future expenses, ect.

[@nicoleplank8460]

Babies need so much less crap than most first time expecting parents think they do. Half the stuff I acquired barely got used.

[@idahogardengirl942]

I’ve always had a problem with clutter. I used to always get distracted and forget what I was doing, lose my spot, or lose my focus on cleaning. My mom suggested that when I clean a room, I start inside the door of a room and gradually clean the area right next to the door. Then I move to the small area adjacent to the area that I just cleaned. I usually just do that and proceed kind of in a clockwise manner until I’m all the way back to the door where I started. That way every area gets cleaned and I haven’t skipped a spot. I don’t know what it is, but I can’t visualize how to organize things. Sometimes I just set things down because I don’t know where to put them. This creates clutter and causes me so much anxiety. My mom used to help me organize things. And though it took a while to organize things, and it was a “boring” activity, it was always a relief when it was done. Everything had a place and if I put everything back in its place, I could find it when I needed it. So, through my mom’s help, I guess I developed some strategies and coping mechanisms so that I can feel calm.

[@bethylou8293]

I have severe ADHD, I will give you 2 tips that help me out. 1) start with either a color or type of object ( I like to start with trash cause then the rest is easier to see and organize, then clothes, then dishes, then the rest) and make it into a game. then 2) have a designated "Doom Pile", a box/drawer/cabinet where those things that don't have a home go but you will remember where they are when you need them. I hope this helps!

[@kari-gs4eq]

When I was a kid I played a lot of Tetris, as an adult if I have a lot of stuff to put away I feely brain clicking to Tetris mode

[@sharoncox1734]

These are some tips I found helpful from a book called "How to Keep House While Drowning". It's written by a woman with ADHD and she also made a summary audiobook for people who have trouble focusing. The full length has lots of reassuring messages about cleanliness not being a sign of morality. Tips: Divide the cleaning into categories. First, pick up all the trash. Then all the dirty dishes (don't do the dishes). Then pick up all the laundry stuff (don't do laundry). Then collect everything that has a place and put it away. Then collect everything that doesn't have a place and eventually find a place for it. It could work with your system by having a box or tub for each of those categories and picking all the things up and putting them in the appropriate tub.

[@whatwilliwatch3405]

18:02 "Yes, it sucks for stuff like that to go to a landfill. That's the consequences of overspending and keeping stuff that doesn't need to be kept." One hundred percent agree. Rather than holding onto stuff that's just going to clutter your living space and impede functionality, throw it away. If that's painful, channel that pain into resistance to making future purchases you really don't need. You can't help what you did in the past, but you can make better choices going forward. I'm in the process of decluttering and organizing some spaces in my house, and I've had to sort out a number of things to donate/throw away that are perfectly good, or even brand new (in package/with tags). Yes, it hurts to get rid of them, but I've reached a point where keeping them hurts more. It hurts my mental health, the functionality of my living spaces, and even my finances (seriously, I've made SO many duplicate purchases, just because I didn't know where something was). In a sense, I see decluttering as taking responsibility for unwise spending habits. Thank you for your videos. I've been bingeing them over the past few days during this decluttering process, and it's really helping me stay on-task. (It even inspired me to clean my master bathroom! That didn't involve any decluttering, but it was badly needed, for sure.) It makes it seem like an end is achievable, which has been part of my challenge - things just seemed so overwhelming that I'd convinced myself it would never get finished, so why start? Seeing you clean MUCH worse living spaces in a matter of just a few hours really helped with that. Keep up the good work, and good luck on getting 1M subscribers!

I've missed you and Jason. I have learned so much about my 38 yr old son, because you've taken the time to discuss your health issues. About 8 months a ago I caught sepsis in the hospital. I've been fighting for my life ever since. I am a clean and neat freak, he is the total opposite. For 2 years I've been trying to get him to clean and keep the home the way I did. He says he just can't. I can't do anything myself anymore so I can't help. It's very very hard to live like this, BUT NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY! Thanks to you I've learned to not get angry anymore and instead just pray more. Best of luck to you in all your endeavors!

[@gregmc1270]

The 'Consequences of' overbuying is a real issue- over purchased clothing is a HUGE issue and even things people COULD use (think new towels, socks and undergarments, unused cosmetics, feminine hygiene and first aid supplies) could end up in landfills if there isn't a local need for those things. If you aren't in an urban area, churches and support centers will sometimes distribute donations, but not always. I feel it may be better for ones own mental health and the health of the community to get rid of items in a landfill than torture yourself caring for things that may never come to value to someone. One's mental health is worth A LOT, even if one doesn't think it does. YOU ALL MATTER, and the more FREE you all are, the more you can help others in your community!

As per your comment about sorting *not* always being about "Like Things Together"...I had a helper who helpfully put all my solder together, all my screwdrivers, all small tools, all chemicals together. 😳 I had seperate (albeit equally rusty) toolboxes for Plumbing and Stained Glass Repair, tool bags for Wiring and Move-ins/Emergency Help-A-Friend fix something, etcetera. About 15 different toolboxes, bags & tubs. My heart sunk when I saw all the lead and silver solders in one clear plastic nut container, and now I find I also have to dole out the screwdrivers again, but I forget which one went to what bag and it took years to get exactly the right sizes regularly needed for certain jobs. But I'm a girl. My house was a mess. It just looked like a lot of redundant tool pouches. 😑 Sighhh...

[@Beryllahawk]

Super helpful - and makes me feel a LOT better about the recurring boss battle that is The Clutter. Also makes me feel less bad about wanting to throw out umpteen boxes full of old clothes. They're not MY clothes: but the person who boxed them up has dropped a great deal of weight and he's never, ever going to need seventeen 5XL sweaters again... I'd like to offer up another possible option for stuff like clothes though: consignment shops. There are just about as many consignment places in my city as there are thrift stores and donation places. One other thing: Because we keep managing to collect hordes of cardboard and also lots of styrofoam boxes (same fellow that dropped weight gets refrigerated medication delivered each month) - those styrofoam boxes are GREAT in multiple ways. Completely good for storing cold stuff in of course, but they'll work as cabinets (they stack really well and are strong), and if you have flooding in your garage (or whatever), the styrofoam doesn't care about water and you can keep things lifted up and safe for a while. I do my best to get at least ONE more use out of any box we have... but it's probably time that we rented a big ol' dumpster.

Thank you so much for this. I am on my sixth go at clearing out our garage. It was full to the ceiling, mostly with my dad's old tools and stuff. It's been an enormous task to clear it all, hence it taking so long. I discovered my hoarder mother had kept our old kitchen cupboards and hidden them underneath shelves, then stashed loads of stuff in front. She'd even hidden the old work surfaces in there "just in case". It still feels really messy as it needs re-organising but it feels like such an enormous job. I tried doing it a few weeks ago - I live in the UK in a nice neighbourhood - and someone tried to take the chairs I'd put in the front of the garage (and this was behind my car!) as they assumed I was giving them away. So now I am too scared to clear it with the door open as people just help themselves. The grid system is an excellent idea, I think breaking it down into sections is much easier as the whole thing is still so overwhelming.

I used one your tips the other day! I was so proud of myself 🤩 My husband wanted to go out and buy a bunch of totes so we could declutter the garage and our closet. I said not to because we'll probably end up with empty totes. He thought I was so smart 🤣

[@susansheppard1000]

I always enjoy your shows and hope for motivation to declutter and organize 35 years of living in the same house. Thank you.

Oh Mack - How did you know that I needed one of your videos right now? ❤ Thank you for being you and making these videos. I have found them so helpful 🌈✨ And your humour is fecking awesome, I love it! Edited to add - I've been able to use your videos as a body double as I too clean up. It's been so amazing and makes me feel stronger about tackling All The Other Meese that appeared when I entered a AuDHD shutdown in December. Thank you so much for that, Mack ❤

Love your doggie watching from the door! 🐕

So glad for all the useful information, it makes a lot of sense, and I hope to use it in helping my son clean his place

I’m a new subscriber and love your channel. Cleaning and organizing is my therapy for trauma but I enjoy helping my friends who don’t operate that way. The key is no judgment

[@seasonschange4337]

Perfect, it looks neat clean and organized to your liking. Great job, my cleaning angel. ❤ Hope after this day you had a relaxing evening with some fun.

Future looks bright for Jason. He’s a spectacular filth engineer! 🎉👍🏼 Go!

4 minutes in and I think this is my most favourite episode to date. As an assemblage artist, I too have a tendency to let my muses roam, and end up with stray piles of scraps, miniatures, fabric and the like. Fortunately, my piles are tiny lol so it’s pretty easy to move, except for the moose. I absolutely abide by your strategy of removing all rubbish, which in my case is boxes and packaging from the things I frequently buy on eBay. I love my studio and wish for never a bigger one, so I cull my items frequently. I pray with my Jesuses, Mary and assorted Joseph’s, and truly let go of things that I know deep deep deep down inside I will never use. Very satisfying video from this side of our pond. Y’all rule. 🇬🇧

moose and wolves and giraffs too. I love your videos. I have a friend at work that got his toddler boy diagnosed with autism a while back. I told him about autistic burnout, so he can research it and keep it in mind.

[@silvermoon3486]

Nice to see ur feeling better, Mack. Thanks for this video 😊❤❤❤☝️👍🏼

[@VickiCampbell-1216]

✨Very nice!! ✨I'm getting Bullwinkle vibes. Mack, once you have your gold plaque I suggest you showcase some sort of Golden Moose with that. I mean...who wouldn't? 😅Hope you're coming out of your burnout phase. You looked more chipper here. 😁Thanks for helping your dad, Jason!! 👍

I am learning so much about my autism from you. On a recent members only you mentioned having no appetite when burned out. I have several times said, "I would love it if I only had to eat one meal a week." I remember many years I would only eat to take care of low blood sugar. Plus when I am focused on a project, stopping to eat is a huge interruption. I could go all day and never think of eating. Even now, my phone alarm reminds me to plan for supper. I guess, not remembering to eat is more ADHD.

Looking good!
