if you can’t think of something to gift someone that they may want/use, then you’re better off not giving them anything. no one wants more junk as a gift. flowers are also always nice cuz when they’re not nice anymore you can toss it and not feel guilt.
i’ll never go to the cloisters in nyc again. the isg museum is just a fancy lady's house that lived by herself and invited a bunch of artist friends over all the time. it was also robbed of some Rembrandt's in the 90s and the empty frames are still there to see. now that’s what I call culture, thanks lady!
