For example, when I’m at work I don’t feel like it, or if I do I can hold it back without any problem, but when I get home the urge seems to be uncontrollable and impossible to hold back.

I suddenly want to make a line of parodies of these signs. Like have one that says in a really quirky font “Defecate” for the bathroom.
Live, Laugh, Poop
Ingest, Digest, Excrete
Or how about one that just says “CONSUME”
I’m thinking that one would go in the dining room.
some people get confused but hey it’s fun
Do it!
Some already exist though, if you want additional inspiration:
I’m thinking specifically targeting the “Live Laugh Love” Rae Dunn kind of aesthetic.
Weird tangent: I was asked to design and build a dining room cupboard for my parents’ house. So I went out to the internet to look at examples to come up with design elements I liked, and I noticed something: I couldn’t find any evidence that anyone actually uses dining room cabinets for anything. It’s supposed to be a buffet or server with dish storage above, but they’re only ever used as trophy cases to consumerism. Set dressing to make the Tiktok studio look like a home. And I really want to graffiti a cock and balls on the very concept itself.
Do something like this but hang the cute little ceramic pig on a cute little steel meathook, write “BABY FACTORY” and “SPERM DONOR” on the mugs, make the signs say things like “Purchase” and “Keep Up Appearances” and “Like Share Subscribe Follow”, use fake dead plants, stuff like that.
It’s the closest thing to art I’ve had the desire to do.
I think back when people had less space and fewer things, they would hold the good fancy items for special events. Whereas now everyone has far more than they need… except ironically health insurance, a stable job, oh yeah a place to live, food, etc.
Everyone everywhere stores their actual dishes in their built-in kitchen cabinets and have for longer than I’ve been alive.
Since the dawn of the 20th century, the dining room cupboard went through the following stages of evolution:
Yup - maybe if the pastor came over you could break that China out of its jail but otherwise it’s too sacred to actually “use”, for such shitty people as (checks notes) your children.
But heaven forbid the children don’t use or want it - think of all the “memories” of the times that it could have been (but never was) used!?
It’s not like anyone else’s feelings matter in the slightest. The American Dream feasts upon us all, long live The American Dream™.
I never really understood that. Then COVID happened and now I see it perfectly. They are sacrificing their children to that great beast, which they themselves barely attained, and now they want to keep the dream alive… at any cost (even their own families). After all, if the pastor + TV + radio says so, then it must be a good thing.
