I've been playing a few of those Lego games (Lego Star Wars etc.) with my little one. It's fun though navigating 3D space while handling the camera is a lot for him (it _is_ not easy).
Sometimes I try to tell him where to go when he gets lost but it's really challenging to stay patient at times (because it's hard for him to translate the words into the complex actions necessary and because I don't want to do things for him while he's trying things). But it's…

I don't think I'm ever going to enjoy gifts.
I can get why people would give them to children. After all, children don't have their own budget. However, I'm talking about occasional gifts, not a new toy every second week, because "we must outcompete the other grandparents". But to adults?
Once I've heard that you should gift people with what they won't buy themselves. Well, that's won't work for me. I'm a minimalist. If I don't need something, I don't want to have it. Unnecessary junk is only emotional burden to me.
I can get why you'd enjoy something handmade. But something people bought? If I need something, I can buy it myself, when I need it. And I definitely don't need people to prove to me that they never cared to learn who I am, and just buy whatever they like or whatever is "fashionable"; which usually means exactly the opposite of what I'd prefer (i.e. something minimalistic). Or even worse, I don't need people manipulating me through gifts.
Sweets? Besides my diabetes, I don't really enjoy expensive shit that people generally buy because it's what's advertised. For the money they waste on it, I'd buy three times as much sweets I'd actually enjoy.
Gift cards? Oh yes, "you aren't supposed to give money, so let's just give the equivalent of money that's actually worth less than money". Actual money? And here we reach the true nonsense; we exchange the same amount of money, so it's just pointless gesture. Unless one of us gives less money…
What I'd really like, as a gift? Maybe that people would finally bother accepting me as who I am. The absolute minimum of caring that I hate consumerism, and not fueling it "for me".

World peace? Universal food, water, shelter, and healthcare? No, capitalism knows what it is you really need: Lego Crocs.
Because fuck you, that’s why.

my sister just told me they had to change the ad for the iphone air where they hold the phone inbetween their fingers, because it was “offensive in Asia”, or so she heard
i was immediately suspicious and was like “where in asia”, she didn't know
i googled it. all my suspicions confirmed.
