These plushies from the formative Aussie tv show, funnily enough I started with one, traded with my cousin, then traded with a friend, then gave it to another friend when I moved away as an adult, who then gave it back to me after a breakup.
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.
my most meaningful possession i own is definitely my stuffed animal Cheeks (you’ve met him!). he’s not a trinket per say but he’s definitely the most meaningful! first thing i grab if there’s ever a fire truly. he’s just so important to me and has always been there for me emotionally since day one. here’s a picture of him with my grandma from this past winter! also i have a habit of going about life as if toy story is non-fiction so he is fully sentient to me as well as all my other stuffed animals ,,
on the subject of trinkets though i am very much a collector. when i’m out with my family my dad always says “you can get that on amazon” but that defeats the whole purpose! i very much tie memories to little souvenirs and find significance in them which always brings me joy. i’m very easily distracted so when i get bummed out in any way, having trinkets around always without fail will lift my spirits.
Does anyone remember these? One time I got a mystery pack of Sandylion stickers off of etsy and it was exhilarating and nostalgic. And now everything I own has a little bunny on it.
Nothing better than wearing a perfect outfit and walking past another perfectly dressed person, and you share a long up and down look - with intimate, mysterious, eye contact.
You‘re both truly bonded in that moment.
Drunkenly left this perfect vintage tshirt in a pub and cried for the rest of the night…still deluded and attached to the idea that I’ll find one again someday
