I’m getting new boots, new camera, new iPhone. And I’m buying them all for myself, because I’m single w/no close family. Thanks, me.

Besides that, I’m writing a check to my favorite local charity. Done. Merry Christmas!🎄

For my favorite murder aficionados, they mentioned a great coffee table book: the nutshell murder dioramas. Absolutely fascinating feminist hero story behind it: a turn of the century heiress trapped in a shitty marriage, got heavily into miniature making as means of escape, met a law enforcement official later in life, she starts making painstakingly detailed models of real crime scenes that are STILL used to train homicide detectives. She went down in history as the mother of forensic science, or something like that, and was the model for Angela lansburys character in Murder She Wrote. My wife loves the book.

Apologies for the most strategy reply possible, but it kind of depends on who the gift is for and what your relationship is to them.

Bluetooth headphones and a fancy cookbook are on my list this year. Also I’d say skip the quip. I was super tempted but after to talking to my dentist and reading up on them online and I ended up getting a sonicare. Not as sleek but more effective (and still doesn’t need to be charged very often).

Thank you!

Bluetooth hat is an affordable nice gift. Also giving a lunch box that can cook rice. A telescope. And a love sac bean bag... which is really the most comfortable cloud like object ever.

Heads up. Ad folks are not first on trends, their work is bad reflections of distilled trends. Want real culture? Then go to where it actually happens. The real world. Not in a fucking conference room filled with colonizers.

We love our soda stream and they’re 20% off right now! We got the machine, bottle and gas canister for $60. Great for anyone who drinks a lot of seltzer. Tile is also a good gift for someone forgetful. Luxe merino wool socks are good too. But yeah it’s hard cause everyone already owns everything.

Oh and the new Alison Roman cookbook “Nothing Fancy” is great for all levels of home cook and aesthetically pleasing.
