Water usage is probably my biggest. Living in a high desert, my wife and MIL see no problem with filling one side of the sink with hot soapy water to wash a few dishes because “that’s just how I’ve always done it”, to watering the grass and plants for hours. All of this makes me mental.

I want to share my photos of our trip with you, but I don't want you to upload them to Google, or apple, or amazon, or meta, or any social media.

If it's a pic of you, fine, do whatever you want. But please don't take my whole album and store it in your google photos.

Edit: to maybe disambiguate, I go on a trip with someone else, we both take photos/videos using our own devices, and then afterwards we are exchanging what we took. Not like, me sharing photos with someone who didn't even go on the trip.

That seems logical.

Seems a bit creepy doing that..

I think it makes total sense from their POV if I'm not posting my shit publicly and they want to be able to view it in the future. I will gladly make a copy of their photos of the trip for my own record, but I will store it in a way that only I have access.
