buying and trying

How I Decide What Is Worth Trying

Scridles worth trying in the consistent Scridles stylized mascot illustration system.

I like trying things, but I do not want every purchase to become noise. The useful question is not only whether something is good. It is whether it changes a real part of the day.

Sometimes a thing is worth trying because it saves friction. Sometimes because it teaches me what I do not care about. Sometimes because it is beautiful enough to make a routine easier to return to.

This is where I can write about tests, products, tools, samples, small upgrades, regrets, and the simple rules I use before letting another object into life.

Letters from the life lab.

I send personal notes about life in China, travel, things I buy and try, tools, creative work, faith, family, learning, attention systems, and the small proofs that help me keep becoming.
