I got a pair like this Christmas 97 or 98. I became emotionally attached to them and wore them daily until they were ripped and dirty and the bottoms were more hole than sole. One day my mom forced me to throw them away so I had a funeral for them and I cried all day.

My friends and I played with these things all the time. Each of us had at least 3 tamagotchis and carried them on a keychain.
Also nostalgic for old spongebob.

I only have this super glossy photo album picture of my purple pig. He was my whole world until we moved and piggy was tragically lost along the way. My mom thinks he fell out into a parking lot somewhere </3 I used to have so much fun plucking all his hairs out one by one.

Log off Amazon prime and step into the real world. Go to a local physical store in your community. Look your neighbor in the eye and put money in their hand.
Go to a local venue and hear what musicians in your community are creating. Talk to them about it afterwards. Buy a T-shirt or cd or whatever they’re selling, they’ll make more money from that than from thousands of streams. Seriously, Spotify pays a fraction of a penny per stream.
Forget about Starbucks. Check out a local coffee shop instead. Learn your barista’s name and tip them.
Go to your local book store and library. Look around and see what book covers catch your eye. Ask employees for recommendations instead of just reading whatever’s trending on #booktok.
Go to your local museums, farmers market, theaters, restaurants, whatever your community has going on.
When you go local, you see your community in a new way. You make friends and feel more connected to the people around you.
You will discover new things organically instead of relying on an algorithm. You keep your money circulating in your community instead of making billionaires richer. You will have a greater appreciation for where you live.
P.S. Pay In Cash
