Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I scored some excellent stuff this year: memberships to MOMA and AMNH, a beautiful MOMA scarf, some canisters, some earrings, 4 glasses of my crystal, a sigg bottle, socks, and a battery charger.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My dad got my nephew an ATV. There were no other gifts that mattered after that point.
My niece was terrified of the pig I got her, it made her cry. It was a No Win xmas for Auntie.

Two questions: was it a live pig? and how old is the niece?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We left my aunt's Christmas dinner early because I have a headache--or rather my sister and I did. We drove in separate cars because my father forgot my scent sensitivity and put on cologne.
Problem is my mother has the meds I need to take before I fall asleep, and they're not here yet.
Christmas at home was...adult. Very little in the way of opening stuff, no egg nog made or special meals. Sparse, I guess, but good.
Oh! They're here. My meds have arrived, with parents.
