This band is called the Siesta Singers. I collected them from the insides of chocolate eggs from 2004-2005, but lost contact with them in the years since. Recently, I decided to track them down and found they could be sent to my door for a reasonable £6.20. I can’t tell if they are exactly the same guys, but they still play in time when you press down on their hats. I heartily recommend reconnecting with old gizmos and friends. -Luke

I just rediscovered this joy the other day, and I spent the day driving around & listening to my favorite music while hunting these down at various stores. I definitely recommend engaging with a childhood interest again if you can; it brought me such a pure and simple form of joy that I haven't felt in a while. I guess I thought I was too old to be doing this and that I had to spend my money on practical stuff, but then I remembered we're all just here on the planet to have fun. Any sort of little mission I can go on with an objective to locate something is always fun to me as well. I felt like I was on a quest to various Targets & Walmarts. People online have also cracked the product codes so you CAN figure out which pet you're getting if you don't want to waste your money, but the surprise is super fun as well. They're super cheap, like $3-$4 a piece. The search for them was the most fun part, but looking at them on my windowsill is also very cute.

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

i had it for a little over a year until i was like wow this is actually terrible! i genuinely think it has negatively impacted society by ruining people’s attention spans, having a horrific algorithm, and most of all by the most mind-numbing or outright harmful trends -
fake words that people now use IRL (“unalive”), trad wife tiktok, shein hauls, body-focused fitness vids that encourage fatphobia and unhealthy habits, shallow political/feminist theory and queer discourse, “alpha male” podcaster tiktok, encouraging overconsumption in general, trends ruining local spots or niche things… the list goes on

a million times cooler than the lackluster “sleek” tech color palette used today
