    In better news, I have received... an envelope?

    Unfortunately, because I was possessed by the demon Curiosity, and because I forgot protocol, I opened it before I took a picture. But I did take a picture of the envelope... eventually.

    And what was inside? A... bewk?

    The synopsis makes it sound like it's about killer poems from outer space, so I probably won't read it until I become brave again. I'm scurred, you see. But thank you anyway, milski!

    that's been on my switch wishlist, but now there's also picross s5 and a picross superhero dating sim, which is almost too tailored to my interests

    this is why i gotta try and limit myself to one for now

    I just tried a piece of the butter toffee and it's a tad hard to chew when it's cold from being outside all night it was delicious. I have to decide which bar to try first.

    I tried one of the coconut bars too! Also very good! I think the huckleberry ones sound most interesting so I'm saving those for last. I sent some of the toffee off to my mom and her husband because she dropped off some groceries before we get an ice storm tomorrow. I'm sure they will enjoy it.

    Awesome! I'm originally from Idaho and I've heard very good things about their candy. Let us know how they are.

    This toffee is dangerous. It's so good. I've never been a huge almond person but I can't stop snacking on these things.

    the book is a gift for my roommate; he's starting a new teacher-esque job soon, and he's also involved with the city's lgbtq+/education committee so this book could very well help save some queer youth!

    the dog chews were not on my list but they should have been! a very welcome surprise! iris knew what was in the box before i did (technically what's in the bags that were in the box that was in a bag that was in a box). she knows any time something for dogs enters the house

    thanks, @Ladybug2332 !

    So this isn't our saints, but my old friend from home got my niece* a unicorn ping-pong pong gun and it resulted in the best picture I have ever seen anyone in my family take. And I needed to post it.

    Have 2 I will have to open today, because Luca is now extremely interested in the boxes coming to my apartment.

    I caught him twice trying to sneak a peak outside to see if anything else arrived.

    I got two new packages!

    First is this
    6cqbgk49yazm.jpg

    The new hdd will come in handy replacing my old mechanical ones that are a little long in the tooth and I hope to come up with some fun projects with the arduino board. The Gregg shorthand book just sounded like a fun hobby to try, I'm terrible about taking notes in regular handwriting so I figured I my try tricking myself with it someday! :) thanks whoever Benjamin is!

    And second!
    mr8fndh0p6u9.jpg

    The d&d official cookbook! Thank you @Iloveslimes it does look super neat! I'll have to post any recipes I try from it in a cooking thread.

    Some more solid toy choices for Luca and his back door intro to Comedy Bang Bang! No names again, but this is a 2nd mic screen, so I can certainly return one if someone wants to send me a label or I can initiate if easier.

    Just came back from maxing out my credit card from auto repairs, so this was absolutely needed today. You folks are absolute angels and I have cried from y’all’s kindness no fewer than 3 times this week.

    Umm... it appears I’m utterly dogshit at remembering to put gift tags, apologies. @Uriel Benjamin is me. And @astrobstrd that was also me. I hope the gifts are appropriate for your kid and apologies on second mic screen. Feel free to do whatever you wish with it.

    This thermos is far and away the highest quality thermos I have ever encountered or even heard of you could certainly beat someone to death with this thermos and it wouldn't look like you used it for that

    This jacket fits like a fucking glove and is FILTHY with pockets, extremely roomy well designed pockets with smooth lining so stuff doesn't get fetched up when you are pulling it out of your pocket, also

    Hell yeah

    In my excitement of gear I banged out two sticks this morning so happy to have a god damn decent knife again

    Hey all just a heads up for @Ladybug2332 sake. If you get any duplicate gifts from her please just set them aside in case they have to get returned. Amazon cancelled her orders because they thought it was fraud the first time, but maybe not all of them. Then the second time she ordered she woke up the next morning to find they closed her account and no one at Amazon knows why, but it meant anything that hadn’t already shipped would also get cancelled. So she’s had to wait 48 hours for the account to get restored before she can actually even do anything about the situation but thank you for your patience whilst she does so. Suffice to say, I would not want to be Amazon right now...

    uh so

    it's gonna be a while before I can give this a proper post due to 1) not currently having a functioning camera (at least not until my new phone arrives) and 2) being utterly speechless, but

    @milski thank you so so so much for the Airpods for my new phone, and for the A Monster Calls bluray combo pack
