Hot take: I just found out my tent's rainfly has a way lower hydrostatic head rating than I thought

1200mm is pretty standard for budget tents but yeah after 3 seasons of UV and dirt I'd bet its closer to 800 or 900. Have you ever seam sealed it or sprayed it with anything to try and boost it up?

Appreciation post for my cheap little greenhouse I was dead wrong about

Same exact thing happened here. Thought it'd be trash, now it's still kicking.

My sister said my packing cubes were a waste of space

Man, that's EXACTLY what happened with me and my fishing tackle. I used to just throw lures and hooks in a big plastic box and spend half the trip untangling everything. My buddy showed me to put all the similar stuff in little zippered pouches first, then drop those pouches into the box. Now I can grab a whole setup in two seconds flat instead of digging through a mess. It's like your sister with the packing cubes - someone just shows you one basic move and your whole system clicks into place. Simple stuff is usually the stuff we overlook the most.
