The Cult of Organisation & The Celebrity Kitchen Complex

On Marie Kondo saying that people who buy lots of organisational boxes are hoarders - I don't know where that quote came from but I read LCMOTU and I think what she meant was when you think of sorting out your house, your first instinct is to buy all these boxes and hangers and things, but really you're just adding more stuff to the clutter instead of addressing the clutter itself first, and that's the exact habit she's trying to help you address

[@hmacklemore2226]

I don't agree with that; sometimes you genuinely need bins to organize things you can't just get rid of. I shop in bulk at Costco and need organization for that food. Kondo is a bit too simplistic at times.

[@ziezie._.z]

I think it’s also at least partially a cultural difference, as (from experience) Japanese people tend to already own more things like gift boxes due to the prevalence of gifting and presentation, while in America or other western countries, things like gift boxes etc are generally just used less, meaning people generally just don’t have them at their disposal to use to organize.

[@allisonwendell9942]

It’s entertaining but I worry about people that feel they need to aspire to this level of consumerism and organization. I love a clean and organized home. I’m not spending a small fortune to get there. All of that content is product placement. One influencer spends enourmous amounts of time cleaning and organizing and i know all of her products are on an “amazon store”. I’d rather spend my time working on eating healthy and being active, which if I indulged in this level of organizing I’d never have time to and would be as obese as some of these “organizer influencers are”. Just my opinion.

People are confusing maximalism with being messy or consumerism. Maximalism is about having houses full of personality and color with a lot of things being bought second hand or diy'd (although not always.) The whole minimalism trend is fine for those who enjoy it but I get annoyed when people act like it's the only "healthy" way to live life when in reality a lot of these minimalistic practices seem to promote consumerism and throwing away things unnecessarily.

[@caseyw.6550]

Yes! Throwing things away unnecessarily!!

[@yeeyeeyeeye]

I agree about your point about minimalism promoting people to throw away things unnecessarily. During my minimalist phase, I threw out so many things I ended up regretting later on.

[@IndieHellCat]

and the idea that maximalism values objects less annoys me too, I have things because I like them, or they have potential, and I don't want to throw them away where they can no longer be used

[@Ohdakkeinen]

I view maximalism the same way as I do minimalism: there’s a spectrum. On the one hand there are minimalists who define minimalism as having enough - not as little as possible. On the other hand there are minimalists who come off as obnoxious. F.g. couchsurfing from friend to friend and constantly loaning stuff just because you don’t want to be the one who has to pay for that object, take care of that object and store that object… it’s just disingenious. Especially, if that person at the same time considers all the extra stuff people acquire as superfluous and maybe even signifying lack of character. Of course there are people who have to do so due to monetary reasons - that’s a completely different discussion. Maximalism also has the side that views material possession from more nuanced, practical and intimate angle. Those people have enough - and more - but their possessions are important to them on a personal level and reflect them and their lives. Then there is the side of maximalism that’s maybe more interested of the image: other people’s opinion and view’s on them. Quite similarly to the excessive minimalism of f.g. Kim Kardashian’s mansion. It’s a stylistic choice more than a personalized and individualistic way to live.

[@kmhkennedy]

Every minimalist person I know used it as an excuse to get rid of perfectly good stuff they don’t like anymore and then go shopping. There is a week to two weeks of suffering in-between the ‘clear out’ and shopping and then it’s “I have no choice, I have no clothes, no shoes, no anything” and the shopping commences. From what I can tell almost everyone has a consumerism problem, it just comes in different flavors. Everyone just thinks their purchases are justified and everyone else’s aren’t. So stupid.

[@satyasyasatyasya5746]

Abundance to show-off is one thing; its narcissistic and cringe and tacky, but an abundance that isn't itself even utilised, is a level of opulance and resource hoarding that boarders on evil. Like, literal Dragon on a pile of gold nonsense...

[@vitoriabottaro]

that's a great analogy

[@sofia_c_1]

I would like to defend dragons with the fact that they are basically lizard shaped crows that liked/need shiny things and they have basically no control over it. Gold is something humans made valuable because they wanted to not because it has any intrinsic value or is necessary to human life in any way. I have never seen anyone criticise penguins for collecting pebbles because for us pebbles have no value, so it's cute and silly. Our criticism of dragons for gold is because our OWN greed for gold. People like kings and aristocrats do the exact same thing but our knee jerk reaction isn't to immediately hunt them down and plunder their homes just because they look and communicate the same way as us. The king is taking the gold from its own people but the dragon we either don't know where they got the gold from or they took those shiny pebbles from something tiny that can be their food/stomped on easily... like us with bees among other animals. These people on the other hand are just exercising intimidation tactics on their own people at the cost of their own people's well being and using it all to imply how much genuinely vital resources (like food and labour) they would rather sacrifice than share with the "lower ones" as their comfort prevails over others survival, like modern kings and queens. And that's just plain cruelty. Humans can organise and agree in the hunt and plunder of dragons and their lairs because it's a one time event relatively easy to pull off that will better their quality of life on the short term although it won't change things much in the long term. But they aren't really interested in organising enough well and long enough to guarantee that resources are fairly distributed within their own people not just immediately but continuously and will protect and excuse resource hoarders among themselves... because one day THEY wish to be King. So what I am saying is that humans criticism of dragons on their motives/psyche just stems from deep hypocrisy. Dragons aren't evil. Humans are. ~ 🐉

[@Shirumoon]

I can't really get into a pre made organizing system but her folding method was the one thing I implemented and having my clothes in drawers has made the biggest difference. Minimalism (the philosophy, not the aesthetic) was generally really good for me. I overdid it in the beginning and repurchased a lot but that was a lesson for life. Now I'm so much more mindful about my purchases than before I dabbled into minimalism.

[@DeviSeren]

Same! Just the phrase "spark joy" was so mind-blowing to me when I read it, I was like... wait, that matters?

To be fair I decant a lot of my food and snacks into clear containers but it’s bc I have adhd so if I can’t see it it’s really easy for me to forget it exists, so veg or random snacks will go back. Decanting things into smaller containers then having to still store the original product makes no sense to me though. This clear cereal container isn’t winning any beauty contests but it actually fits the WHOLE box.

Talking about celebs kitchens reminded me of when I used to work at a semi luxury kitchen company which has built many celeb kitchens. One of the most shocking things I learnt was that many of the kitchens we sold were for show, a status symbol in celeb homes and the actual cooking would be done in a smaller hidden kitchen. To the point that some items are famously non functional/ realistic in an actual functioning kitchen. Like polished copper counters which as soon as u put your bare hands on it would be marked forever but people still bought them because they were one of the most expensive items we sold !!!!

[@roxycocksey]

I just started watching the home edit show on Netflix and I will say, the mom in the first episode brought up a good point and it made me rethink my opinion that this is only about overconsumption. Im paraphrasing but she basically said, “I can’t see what I have easily in the pantry but if everything was in clear containers I could see how much cereal and stuff we have left and not over buy at the grocery store”. And I really resonated with this because this is what my mom does, she over buys and we end up having WAY too much of the same things and they go bad before we can even open them. It makes me feel awful for being so wasteful. So I can see how this type of organizing could actually reduce overconsumption.

[@Shirumoon]

I also have everything in clear containers but those are stored in the pre built kitchen unit and the containers are mostly empty pickle jars. You can have what the lady wanted without going out and buying a single clear container or go as far as to install new shelves even though your place already has a large enough kitchen with place for storing food. I think this is what people critisize about the show, not the sensible needs of the (regular) people on it.

There are practical and economic reasons why people do this. Like buying in bulk, it saves money per unit but having a gigantic container of laundry powder can be hard to use so decanting makes it more functional. Younger kids have a lot of stuff and clutter gets really overwhelming, you waste time and. money not knowing where things are. If things are easy to visualise and have a place where they belong you spend less time organising and cleaning. I started organising like this but not in a rigid way and I honestly spend half the time I used to cleaning and organising because my adhd brain knows where an item belongs and im not trying to work my way through piles of things every day. If I have to assign a place to an item and am organise I buy a lot less things, and I waste less money buying things I already have. I think it becomes a problem when its about having more things rather than functionality.

[@no_peace]

Yep. I'm an AuDHD hoarder who is recovering and I had to make my housing accommodating. I don't disagree with the video in general just a lot of the comments. Different people have different needs. A lot of people decant because they have roaches in their house. So they have roaches AND they get to hear about how ridiculous decanting is. I started doing it because of a weevil infestation and realized it made my life way easier to have these clear containers that had like a full/empty visual on the side. They fit perfectly in my cupboard and i can gauge whether or not to buy more stuff. And they protect my food from bugs. Awesome. I'm disabled, I've been struggling for decades. Having these visible limits is so helpful. I've been able to avoid running out of things i need, and avoid buying too much, for like 3 years now, since I got the tubs. They even have markings on the side to tell me how much is left. They give everything a home. Everyone always says to give everything a home. A place for everything and everything in its place.

[@virginia644]

When it comes to kitchen items, I wish you had touched more on the decompression from consumer "noise". I struggle with this because it affects my mood when I open a cupboard and am bombarded with loudly colored labels, clashes between branding/label styles, and wonky container shapes that are meant to be attention grabbing in stores. I'm not someone who condones dumping everything out and putting them into expensive secondary containers, but I do peel labels off quite a bit especially when the expiration date is stamped elsewhere on the container. The less I can be unnecessarily exposed to blaring advertisements, the better my mood generally is.

[@bridgetspector6703]

Maybe its weird to complain about a pantry being “soulless” but thats how I feel about the celebrity ones in this video… I dont have a full pantry, but when I stock my shelves it is satisfying to see my regular staples and favorite snacks, and I feel there is a lot of personality expressed in the foods people want to keep on hand. Most of the foods in the kardashians pantries honestly look like they just sent an assistant to cvs and told them to buy everything on the shelves. Just a lot of very generic foods that I cant imagine them eating, it’s like a set for them to pretend to be normal people.

[@arozeisarozie]

I have been emptying items into clear, designated containers for years. - For one, it saves space. - For two, it helps my brain when my eyes gradually see a supply declining. - For three, I plan my restocks so I can make a mass trip to the recycling bin, otherwise I don’t go and the one empty container ends up in the trash. - For four, it helps my anxiety and ADHD. That being said, this takes it to a whole new level. You really have to be careful or else the compulsive need to organize everything will take over. I mean, emptying detergent? Why? I can feel its weight when I use it and it stores easily. Plus, it’s a liquid. No, thank you. Still, to each their own. I know a lot of people think I’m weird. Maybe they have a reason.

[@northwoodfalls1403]

I did the Marie Kondo method to my entire house years ago and have never looked back. It changed my entire relationship with the inanimate objects in my life. It helped my children immensely as well. I don’t use retail therapy anymore and whatever I buy is intentional and I know exactly where it will go in my home. And ya, I used old cardboard boxes or old plastic containers I already had. I don’t think I bought more than a few additional containers and they are all still the ones in my drawers and cupboards to this day. Who is poking around in my drawers? And if they are, who cares? My house is functional and free of clutter and everything in it pleases me. That’s a huge win. And I am not a slave to it. The Home Edit makes me feel nauseous. It’s like watching McGee and Co … it’s all about LOOKING perfect. It’s all lacking of personality and individual human experiences. Those fridges are offensive. Those pantries are things of nightmares. So rigid, so militant. I remember one episode the mom was talking about how it’s so great because her kids can help her with the grocery list … “We need more purple snacks ….” What in the actual f … ??!! What happens when the company changes the labels and now your purple snack is a yellow snack but you already have yellow snacks? And all the “over stock” or whatever they call it … so now I need to have even MORE storage because I have to find a place to keep the ugly packages as well? And all those clear containers need to be cleaned on the regular. My pantry changes all the time because I buy what I can afford and sometimes the container is this big and sometimes it’s that big …. I mean, it all goes where it fits. It’s getting shuffled around all the damn time. My fridge likewise is constantly getting shuffled around because we are actually humans who live in this house and we do our own cooking and we have leftovers and take out containers and sometimes someone buys the extra big container of ketchup or buys way more milk than we actually needed right now so guess what? It’s all getting shoved in wherever there’s room. Cause that is LIFE. All these perfect homes are the stuff of nightmares. Khloe strikes me as a total psychopath. She seems nice enough but ffs that house of hers gives me the creeps. All of them give me the creeps. Like there are bodies buried in there somewhere …. It’s neurotic. These people live in gilded cages and it all screams a psychotic need for control. I am an intelligent, capable, skilled woman. I do not need my house to be an extension of my ego. Come in, put your feet up, relax, and be a normal human being, not a show pony. Augh. Lol. It’s all so weird. And it’s reason 4,000,001 why I am not on TikTok or IG. If you don’t see it, you don’t know to want it. Most sustainable way to live right there: don’t look at it and you won’t know to want it so you won’t buy it and you’ll never have to toss it one day.

[@really-quite-exhausted]

I love Marie Kondo's first two books!!! So far i have only "properly" decluttered and organised my clothes but it feels so good to know exactly what clothes i have and to know that i love all of them, and where they all are. Folding and putting them away is a relaxing time for me, and helps me to practice mindfulness. You are correct, her books do stress that buying storage containers is the last thing you should do, if you do it at all, since you probably have enough random boxes etc. lying around after you have gotten rid of a lot of stuff, and then you're even supposed to get rid of the extra boxes that you haven't used for storage once you have finished. I think the products she sells began as a way to produce the type of container that her organisation systems work best with, but aren't readily available to buy in most shops, i.e to fill a gap in the market, but I'm not sure how true that still is. Anyway, I loved the video, thanks for making it

24:32 This actually makes a lot of sense to me in a scary way- with a clear, perfectly organized fridge, it only takes a single glance to tell if someone ate something or bought more food.

Like this is not a problem that people have (not to mention, do you really think huge celebs are doing their own grocery shopping?) The glass door and the Instagram account exist to make the fridge an aesthetic space instead of a functional one. Like look at the photos/videos- the food is arranged to be on display, and to look nice, and actually going in and eating it would ruin that aesthetic arrangement.

I think there is a sort of symbolism in stuff, especially when we associate the things we buy as forms of expression and things that "spark joy", so in our homes we want to share those sparks of joy and show off our symbols of self-expression, but we want to not look poor, hoarder-y or in bad taste in the process. Wealthy homes have their collections openly on display, often artistically so, mostly because they have the space to do so. Wealthy homes have the space to be maximalist while appearing minimalist, aka having a lot of stuff without it looking like hoarding. So home organisation helps bridge that gap of wanting to show off our symbolistic stuff in a way that looks artistic (aka wealthy), rather than like hoarding, because it's well organised within the available space. And as things looking neatly organised gives us aesthetic happy feelings, got to love a nice dopamine hit, this makes us feel validated in wanting to display them - I love people seeing my living room, with it's carefully organised collection and art that I often get complimented on, it helps me feel good about myself because, in a sense, by saying they like my organised/displayed stuff they're kind of saying they like me, but in an indirect way that makes the compliment easier to swallow. It's validating, and I love seeing their collections for the same reason, I like to compliment them. My neighbour and I have vastly different taste in "things" but still appreciate each others way of displaying these things that helps us show each other respect and neighbourly affection. Then there is the 'healing from childhood poverty' aspect to also think about, especially when it comes to kitchen and food organisation where we are showing we can afford to not only buy enough food to feed our family, but we also are showing we can afford food in plenty, thus displaying that dispite our small spaces and low incomes we can still afford some luxury and excess relative to our peers and especially relative to our youth (I have had the thought many times of thinking life is worse for mine and my kids generation than for generations before us, but I can also look in my cupboards and feel reassured that while the job market looks bleak atleast my kids have never experienced real hunger, in a sense by controlling our home environments to be places that feel plentiful if helps offset our dreads about the world and economy at large). If it looks pretty this helps us feel less poor and less screwed over by society (especially since the "American dream" is essentially unattainable to the majority of people these days). It's a type of wealth porn linked in with self-expression through consumption tired into avoiding existential dread.

[@M1995C]

I will say that as someone in a rental with a weirdly deep/tall pantry with no shelves to speak of (and without the opportunity to add any) i have embraced the clear plastic container/glass jar life in the kitchen.

I have a love hate relationship with the home edit. Its satisfying but no way realistic: notice how even the normal people were well off. You need so much space and enough stuff to mediculously 'organise' everything like that: you cant organise a singular lemon in a box sized fridge. Plus plastic container everything...... is a great business model bc they can literally sell everyone hundreds of them 😂 I love how they organised a kids toy car garage and witherspoon's award clothes closet. Like they tried to make it appeal to normal people (to sell their containers and brand) but its obvious their service is for the super rich. Have you watched stacy solomon sort your life out? It has a declutter segment but also an organise everything in conatiners segment. Id be interested to know what you think about it!

Keeping food in its oiriginal packaging is extremely useful to know things like expiration dates, or what packaging looks like if you want to easily repurchase something. These people truly aren't buying food for the purpose of eating it normally... lol.

[@rhonplays]

I could be completely off the mark here but these celebrity kitchens make me think about how gout and decaying teeth were a sign of wealth centuries ago, especially in royalty. Access to food is one of the basic human needs, and it just goes to show that even though times have changed, and these signs of wealth have obviously changed over time, they still have the same core topic at the centre of it - food. Edit: also the decanting cleaning stuff into glass or plastic containers is hilarious to me. The ONLY thing I have decanted (and I felt so called out for it hahahah) is my washing machine powder. The only reason I've done this is because the box isn't completely sealed and every time I went into the box, powder leaked out and got caught in the various folds of cardboard, and I have cats so I don't want to risk them stepping on the powder and licking their paws. In my defense, I didn't go out of my way to buy a specific container for it. I just repurposed a glass drinking dispenser which holds about 5L of liquids. It was lying about in my cupboard ever since I got it back when I went to uni (and used it twice, years ago for its actual purpose). Reduce reuse recycle 😂🤪💅

[@megallina1]

I sometimes laugh when people talk about how things already come in perfectly good containers...the containers are the minimum quality and cheapest price to keep the product safe and contained in the warehouse and the store. Most companies don't invest in high quality packaging these days. Durable, reusable airtight containers or glass jars can often be a much better choice for items accessed often

Jordan makes such good points about sustainability. I would also add that it costs resources to produce the plastic containers as well. The raw materials, energy required for production, and fuel to transport the good to/from each location all have associated environmental costs. These are in addition to the end-of-life costs (space in landfills and emissions/breakdown as it rots or erodes). For the clear plastic bins, I’d guess that they’re made of mostly (if not, all) virgin plastic which comes from fossil fuels, rather than post-consumer recycled. While their $ price tag is low, their beginning materials and permanent plastic parts have expensive environmental impacts

[@htarbs_]

I really loved this video, I think it’s a great conversation to be having. I myself am extremely organised and clean to an obsessive degree (due to my mental health it’s a compulsion and something I rarely feel free and away from) and have lots of my friends compare their houses and lifestyles to mine - I think it’s important that we exist in a way that is more fulfilling for us. I find myself comforted in the way their houses feel lived in and that you can feel people’s presence when they’re not around because they have left their favourite mug out or something they enjoy doing hasn’t been packed away. I have actually started to try and sit in “untidy” or “mess” more to try and desensitise myself to the the extent of organisation my brain feels is “healthy” and I love these organisation videos so much but I have to remind myself that living and existing is a privilege and that allowing people to see that you do those things is special.

[@Shirumoon]

I used to be extremely clean myself and then I started having chronic health issues, including chronic pain in my arms and hands 🫠 needless so say, that was it with my perfectly clean and organized home. I think it's really good that you try to desensitize yourself because I wish I didn't have that "shock" of a messy and sometimes dirty place amongst suddenly being disabled to some degree. I hope this comment doesn't give your anxiety or anything but like you said, living and existing is a privilege and we really need to put things into perspective sometimes.

[@catmarsh6547]

What I see a lot is like... stylistic minimalism with consumerist maximalism! All these perfect clean spaces, neat little square containers, a lot of white and grey and beige and clear, everything is very visually blank, there's no personality outside Organizing All Your Many Purchases. Which I cannot vibe with. I mean, full disclosure, there are things I DO use clear plastic containers for-- I had an airtight one for storing my cat's dry food, and I think it's really useful for certain dry goods-- sugar or flour that came in a paper bag that's not resealable, that could tip and spill or attract ants, or that I need to keep free from moisture. And with ADHD, clear containers do mean I can see whether or not I'm running out of something. So I see the need for them in some situations where they make sense and do a specific job. But the look of a kitchen that looks like no one lives in it it's just full of product... I'm a maximalist when it comes to style-- I like to see color and personality in my living space. I like my silly magnets and salt and pepper shakers, cute towels, and for the things that I need and use to be colorful or fun to look at. But I am much more a minimalist in terms of wanting to live simply. I love the idea of organizing in a way that will make sense for my poor brain... but the content around it is so weird and backwards to me.

[@Qtopian]

Baskets in my opinion look SO much better. It covers what’s inside it but still organizes those objects. You can find mini vintage baskets to even put in a basket if needed.

[@ATurtleAteMyTrex]

i agree with p much all of this and it’s super interesting, but i actually think it’s worth noting that some of these organisational components are beneficial to disability beyond their aesthetic value i.e. transparent boxes actually help you see what’s inside, which can be hugely beneficial for people remembering what they have and where it is (esp neurodivergent people)! i don’t think the clear boxes only serve to display- but i agree, it shouldn’t be prescribed! and over decanting i think only creates a façade of control over the home and organisation, it’s often functionally pointless and wasteful

[@the_wandering_yehudi]

I think that part of the reason it's appealing is because the products we buy have big words and bright colors which is proven to stress us out subconsciously. So the idea of putting something from that stressful container to a simple one where we can see what it is is meant to help us feel more relaxed in day-to-day life. I do that for my staples at home, but I just re-use jars I already have. That being said, capitalism of course found a way to capitalize on that concept by creating a product out of it. It's sad even marie kondo feels the need to make decluttering profitable.

something i find so wild about restock tok and the trend of decanting stuff is that they do it all with already packaged, regular sized products. it shows that they've never had the word sustainability at the forefront of their mind bc if they can afford to do that, they can afford to go to those places that you buy the product in your byo container (i guess they might be a bit hippy for some people) or at the very least, bulk buying a product online or from costco and decanting it into useable jars because at that stage at least you're cutting down on a bit of packaging!

Marie Kondo started a rabbit hole for me into minimalism content and like the minimalists like to say “Less is More. Less stuff, More happiness.” At the time I was suffering with depression and I would do anything to feel happy. So I started getting rid of my stuff. I convinced myself that I didn’t need to do any hobbies and that even though I wanted to keep a lot of the stuff I was getting rid of, I was a hoarder and I didn’t deserve to keep it if it wasn’t serving a purpose. I am by no means a hoarder and my mom tried to tell me that but I just couldn’t deal with the fact that my stuff might be causing me to be so unhappy and unsatisfied. I’m now buying back stuff I got rid of. It is the worst cycle I’ve ever been in.

[@Uncle_Smidge]

My only defense of this stuff is that I don't have a ton of different products, but having them in clear containers makes it SO much easier for my ADHD ass to see how much I have so I remember to get more of something in a far more timely manner.

My mom introduced me to the Marie Kondo method right before her Netflix show came out and it really clicked for me. I had just moved into a new place and I remember the process of packing/unpacking my entire life was overwhelming and I kind of hated myself for owning so much stuff. Her method made things easier and less stressful. When The Home Edit show later came out, I was skeptical because I thought they were copying lol How many experts do you need to tell you how to organize your belongings?! That being said, I watched it and the result is always oh so visually pleasing and I guess that's what makes them successful (also, you didn't mention it but IIRC they work with Reese Witherspoon's production company hellosunshine so they are deep in Hollywood lol). However, I think our need and hyperfixation on organizing our space goes deeper than just clear plastic bin and folding your laundry. Yes, it can be consumerism and abundance and wealth. But also, I feel like that is one aspect in one's life that is easy to have control over. Whereas your emotion, your feelings, it's harder to organize them in your own head. "Clear mind, clear space" or whatever. Really enjoyed your video Jordan ☺

I never watch celebrity stuff. It is so rediculous and unattainable for nearly everyone. I don't envy it, I just refuse to support it.

In January 2023 Marie Kondo said in an interview that she doesn’t follow her own method anymore and she considers her home to be untidy. And while her standards for a tidy home could be different than someone else it is very interesting to know that she was unable to maintain her own lifestyle.

I just have such an irritation at not just the insane wealth gap between these celebrities and normal people, but also the fact that this is how they are spending their money. Like the total mundanity of having a room of shelves like a shop when if i had what like 10 grand that i just wanted to blow on something unneeded i could pay an artist for something handmade and gorgeous or commission a play or paint my photos in oils or just something worth something. Like such a silly complaint but i miss millionaires with taste & interest in funding the arts!

I hate the rich so much, and the more they do stuff like this the less bad i feel when theyre robbed, their houses get squatted in, or that theyre ingesting double the microplastics by moving their food from one plastic container to another
