About

Spill Your Bag is a place to look at bags when you do not yet know what to ask for. Every board is one bag, one situation, and everything in it, sorted into zones.

Why pictures and not a list

If you already know what you need, a chatbot will give you a list in four seconds. This is for the other case: you are packing for something new and you want to see what it looks like when someone has it sorted.

Where the pictures come from

The clip at the top of this page is a drawing too: one character, one day, five bags, none of it filmed and nobody in it real.

The boards are AI-generated illustrations. The objects in them are invented and generic. They are not photographs of products, and nothing in a board is for sale. Every board says so.

Where the tips come from

Each board carries one tip, written by us from the way the things in it are actually used. Where a board has been read by someone who does that job, their credit appears on the page. No credit means nobody has checked it yet.
