It's sad to think about how much stuff that still has life but ends up in a state like that.

I see a lot of completely useful things discarded on the side of the road where I am, this was just one of the most unusual.

Some of it is rescued and repaired, but there is a used mattress, broken brittle plastic and swollen MDF furniture epidemic in my neighbourhood. I take good materials for prototyping concepts or craft components where I can, but I have pretty limited space. I have had to try to not let the waste get to me.
