My mom does this game where we have a bunch of random (and generally cheap crap) gifts and a some dice. We roll the dice and have to trade, steal, open or leave with the gift. The kids seem to enjoy it and we generally have a good time. The key is to have a decent gift and something crazy that is like ‘where did you get this.’ we recently introduced this to a friend group… There’s not a legendary homemade necklace that looks like someone named groodle made it 2k years ago.

So I see a few takes… But I think it’s been a slow and mostly private change. My mom is a wedding planner and it’s been a bit more than 10 years since she went from saying ‘they met x at y’ yo ‘they met online’ for most of her weddings. Most folks that I can recall were on MatchDotCom. It was interesting seeing the progression form ‘oh that’s kinda weird’ to it being the norm from her perspective.

it’s important to really explain evolution to folks. as someone that grew up in churches but always have been very scientific… when you really talk to them simply, they kind of get on board. like ‘wouldn’t it make sense that bright colored weak prey would die quicker than camouflaged prey’ - they seem to be able to make that hurdle.

@Alphamars …generally speaking. loose some weight. at very least thats where i’m at
