Horrifying.





Ramblings from a mysterious lady who's into tech. Warning I may often create zingers.

When you say 'Christmas gifts for adults', do you mean, like, festive marital aids?

I did a search of Etsy

"Bane" is a villain of Batman, who wears a mask.

Etsy is a website, with osmall run stuff.

So I searched for COVID and Bane, and got some results

A knife set would be a goody. Car cleaning kit. 1 year Netflix subscription. Travelling kit with collapsible plates and cups. local hot springs voucher. 

Or gift card lucky dip? We don't do presents so it makes it pretty easy 😄

This singing and dancing cactus toy keeps making the "weird" news circuit.

The song it's singing is in Polish, about doing cocaine and committing suicide.

The song's creator is furious because he never gave permission to the toy manufacturer.

It keeps showing up in toy stores, with the parents not realize the song's contents

Here it is on Aliexpress (of course) with a video

I'm waiting for Anvil Aerospace products like this one to appear on Amazon. Be great for taking your family to the beach for a picnic, for example.

 

 

Even if the beach is in Syria.

Argh Christmas shopping! At an age where we have an abundance of everything and feel overwhelmed by anything non edible coming into the house, (decluttering in progress). This year I have announced to friends we are having lunch at ours but, the rule is no presents for anyone taller than armpit height.There were audible sighs of relief. My own children in Australia and grandchild are the exception.

Instead I've decided to give presents to the more needy in lieu of adding to friend's clutter and also shared the link. A few weeks ago on TV I was very impressed by a Kiwi fireplace company that makes and donates cooking stoves to refugees and people displaced by disasters. I donated and yesterday they sent out an email where for $100 you could buy one stove for yourself and donate two. I think it's a great preppers gift to have one at home or as a present in case of earthquake or other calamity and maybe even useful for camping. Bonus you help two displaced families.

Am also looking for a Kiwi kids Xmas charity, suggestions welcome.
