Ahhhh Jedoc! You horrible awful great person you! Jedoc got me a lovely jacket and a knife and a backpack and a razor and an electric razor and an Anthony Beevor book and a bundle of essentials in the form of soap and toothpaste!
This was all entirely practical as my old jacket has a tear my old bag has holes my old knife was lost in an incident my toiletries were busted and I always need books. Ten thousand thank yous! Pictures when I have facilities

As promised. Luca would not go to bed last night, because he thought I might open The Forbidden Box. The boy loves him some Minecraft, even if he has no idea how to play it and has a ton of plushies at his Mom’s house. Hoping a larger pillow plush has the added benefit of giving him something to cling to in bed that isn’t me (love the dude, but I’m a light sleeper). He is addicted to silly and corny jokes, so hoping to get some mileage out of Madlibs and the joke book (he makes me tell him the same jokes over and over).
He loves the Nintendo characters, but I think he’s kind of clueless about Smash Brothers. Hopefully I get to be his “end boss” for awhile before he figures out I’m trash and levels up. Look forward to playing with him and I haven’t had a SB since Game Cube.
My dumb podcast is one of my only touchstones since I moved with my friends back in Cincinnati. I don’t think all the bad audio is on my side, but I cringe at all the popped P’s on my re-listens.
No name attached, but y’all are really the best. Since I moved, my only communities have been work and online and I’m so glad I found such awesome people.
Will post more pics on Xmas so you can see that Goober’s little face as well.
A wet palatte for painting models and a knockbox for getting rid of spent espresso pucks without hitting my portafilter right against my actual trash can!
Why it was another box a Citadel(TM) skirmish case, perfect for putting all some of my miniatures in! Hooray for boxes!
It didn't come with a note indicating who sent it though, so-
Hooray for mystery! Hooray for Saints! Hip, hip, hooray!

Immortal Hulk and some whisks for cooking! Thanks, @milski !

Alright no pictures yet because I'm terrible but after one shave I have to say that the hype on safery razors holds up my lord what a pleasant shave no burn and close as hell why the fuck did we stop shaving like this

More like convenience and marketing.
Safety razors are actually cheaper by far than cartridge razors!
You can get a carton of like 100 good replacement blades for a de safety razor for like 20 some dollars. You might get 4 cartridges for that price, which don't really last any longer than a safety razor blade.
It's like the marketing adage of giving the razor for free and getting rich off the blades. That basically refers to the business model schick and Gillette follow.

I think you misunderstood what I meant by cost, the long term is cheaper yes but the initial costs are higher. Goes with the Sam Vimes boots theory of economics.

@Uriel Now you take care of those brushes, young man! Or you'll find yourself in a couple o' years months doin' the same thing I did, which is dump them in brush restorer, generously provided by some sort of Secret Saint (milski)!

Yeah honestly I'm probably gonna look up some guides on how to take good care of them haha. Real kolinsky afterall. Some of my older brushes I was a little more rough and tumble with due to some of them being the cheaper versions of the citadel synthetic brushes from before those started to get decent too.
This time my image features 100 percent more duck in the background.
A rad looking board game, the dollop book, and a infrared thermometer (that I honestly forgot why was on my list also, but will probably come in handy and be fun to play with)!

Got a real name on the receipt on this one, but don’t know who here to thank. Luca loves Uno and we have 3 other versions that he loves to swap between. I think he will adore this.
Receipt also contained the ominous threat in the notes: “Part 1”.
You all are amazing. I mean it more every time I say thank you.

A package arrived! It doesn’t say who it’s from, but inside we’re MTG commander cards!
Thanks so much! Now to just decide if I rip them open now or if I try to get a draft going later on after the pandemic is over!

That was from me. I wasn't sure how they'd label it. I don't play Magic, but I've played collectible miniatures games and opening a whole box was always the best. I hope you get the cards you want!
Dear Amazon customer service,
Your "sincere apologies" for canceling my entire Christmas order(s) because it "looked suspicious" does not help me get back the several hours I spent painstakingly picking out all the items and dispersing them to the appropriate addresses. Please take your "sincere apologies" and....well, you get the rest.
With that said, if anyone gets blessed with double anything from me, feel free to pay it forward, or keep both....your choice. I'm going to bed -_-

This time it is clearly from @milski because of the notes!
Two cans of army painter primer and some very very fancy brushes! (seriously w&n are like the aston martin of paint brushes from my understanding)
Thank you so much! Now I need to find some old models I haven't painted!
Ooh.
