So yes, buy secondhand... AND imagine what your rituals and traditions can look like outside of the capitalist pressure to shop. Because if you don't feel the shame or the obligation, you're far more difficult to manipulate.

@nat@kind.social I stopped buying Xmas presents for adults 20+ years ago. Family members got me stuff for a couple years, and then stopped. I get a couple little things for my kid.
