    I just name folders with numbers and call searching for files in them (that are not named either) future me’s problem. Knowing they’re there somewhere is good enough.

    “my project”, “my project two”, “new project”, “branch of my project”, “my project returns”, “my project forever”, “my project reloaded”, “my project revolutions”, “my project is dead” “my project 2” <— the tenth installment of my project

        I’ve finally started naming shit year-month-day-project-name.V.XX.ext and it’s been WOOOOO much better…turns out, when I think, I’ll remember why I named it this way, I’m always lying.

      My desktop has a folder called “crap” where when my desktop starts to look cluttered I drag everything into a new folder then put that into the crap folder.

      Going through the crap folder is like digging through sedimentary layers of dead shortcuts.lnk and .txt files to get a glimse of the past

        I have something similar: a “garbage” folder in my downloads folder, and when I tire of the clutter I put all of it, including “garbage”, into a new “garbage” folder. It’s garbage all the way down.

          I have a “Unsorted-NEW” and “Unsorted-OLD”. When everything is too cluttered I rename “Unsorted-NEW” to “Unsorted-Number” and move it to “Unsorted-OLD” along with the previous iterations. Then I make a new “Unsorted-NEW” and put the clutter in it. Which I’m totally going to sort and not just leave there and forget about it until everything’s too cluttered again…

          …

          … … … that actually made more sense before I tried to explain 😓
