What would your character throw away/get rid of?

Imagine your character is doing some spring cleaning, what old things do they get rid of?

Hoshi has some junk drawers she's pulled cool items from, but I imagine once in awhile she takes out some of the items she no longer has any attachment to or that's too worn to use. Specifically, an old worn Akemi's burger keyring and a paper-like drawing tablet that she didn't really like more than sketching in a notebook. She also had a lion fish in her office but after I left and came back, I wrote it was gone :o
 
It's actually kind of hard to conceptualize this because the characters I play are part of a space military and, although they do have planetary homes, they aren't at them enough to accumulate extra stuff that needs to be tossed out after it stops sparking joy (if they even collect minor items in the first place). The characters that aren't in the military are samurai, so probably live an even more ascetic life. Overall, they simply do not keep that type of item in the first place because their immediate storage options are limited. But for the sake of the thread's thought experiment...

Ketsurui Aiko probably gets rid of a lot of clothes/jewlery. She dresses very fashionably (I'm always thinking of cool outfits for non-uniformed appearances) and rarely wears the same thing twice. Thinking about it further, Aiko also likely accumulates a lot of challenge coins from fellow service members because she's so universally recognizable. So she probably donates most of those that hold little meaning for her (because they get handed to her in the thousands every year, it's not like she keeps a vault) to military museums or veteran organizations that would display them well.
 
Tachiko: Nothing to throw away, she lives the same as Raz's characters were described. Almost everything she owns is intangible, and anything that isn't, and wasn't issued by the SAoY fits in a footlocker with room to spare.

Kuroko: Something of Eidan's that would inconvenience him and cause him to waste time looking for it.

Sayako: All the superfluous meatbags she has to deal with

Hitomi: empty liquor bottles
