there's something so forlorn about dollar-store merchandise that I feel aggrieved by it. cheap paper feels so thin these days, like they've figured out how to make it out of the absolute minimum of recycled pulp. and no I'm sorry I've never thought that writing on an electronic tablet was anything like the same and I've had some very tortuous thoughts about why that should be the case that aren't about just...UX issues. directly altering a physical medium is...significant.
I'm so happy that Kel got into those cheap plastic discs from the dollar store. I was a bit worried at first; they seemed a meager sort of gift, but Kel really took to them. I wish I could say that other dollar-store toys looked as promising.
