It's not just merchandise roundup day: it's also my birthday! ✨🎄 Yep, I was born on Christmas Eve. Everyone I know is afraid of aging, but I couldn't wait to turn 30 last year. 31 isn't too bad, either. I don't see myself as old, but does my age make me a fandom elder? 🤔
Anyway, much as it pains me to say this, the Rue 21 near my place is still closing. I went inside for what's probably the last roundup in that store. I didn't expect to find anything, but they had one new item: a pair of boxers that are entirely black except for a picture of Rick and Morty screaming on the waistband.
I hope the location in the mall doesn't close, but that particular mall is hanging on by a thread. Most of the stores are just empty space. The other Rue 21 locations are almost an hour away!
I also stopped by one of the local head shops. I've posted pictures of it before, but I had to share this plumbus pipe again because it's so well-crafted. (The colors come from the backlighting.)
No weird clip art with Rick as Pennywise or Mr. Jellybean creeping on Morty: just a well-made piece of glass.
These pictures aren't the greatest, but they also had new backpacks. I love the vibrant colors.
I tried to find pictures online. All I could find from the Dabtized brand was this Alice in Wonderland backpack. I've actually seen those illustrations in another head shop (probably ripped off from Dabtized, if Dabtized is even the original owner.)
Mad Hatter Rick is a good look for him.
Five Below had new winter-themed socks and a poster set. Honestly, I don't see the appeal of merchandise where the characters look scared or pissed off?
Off to the thrift store. The shelves were pretty sparse, but I love these Mr. Sparkle boxers. That's one of my favorite Simpsons B-plots. I actually thought it was the main plot when I was a child, probably because it was so weird and entertaining.
Snowflake boxers!
Another gift set, this time featuring a mug, socks and key chain.
I had extra time, so I browsed the graphic tees. This one was so big that I had to step back to get the whole illustration in frame:
And finally: this one cracked me up. Are you naughty like Toxic Rick or nice like "Healthy" Rick?
"Healthy" Rick was cold and uncaring toward Morty. A better comparison would be Rickbot and disheveled Rick searching for Prime in his hideout. Rickbot was an angel!
Today, I wondered if I saw Rick and Morty merchandise when I worked in a department store in 2015. That's when the series really blew up. I don't remember anything, but I also didn't watch the show until 2019, so I wasn't looking for it. Maybe Rick was shilling sneakers alongside Kim Kardashian perfumes.
And if he wasn't, he's got a pretty good gig endorsing fast food on the show. Who wants Denny's? 🥞

thrifted bookish finds 13/jan/24
I took these pictures myself. Some of these books are old, some were just poorly handled over the years, and all were thrifted across the second-hand stores of Dublin.
Went back for the rest of those beautiful cards. I discovered that the art printed on them is of the art displayed in The National Art Gallery of Ireland. Here are the names of the pieces with their artists:
The Cottage Girl — 1785 — Thomas Gainsborough.
Smiling Girl — c 1840 — Richard Rothwell.
Moonlight — 1976 — Paul Henry.
Near St. Patrick's Close, an Old Dublin Street — 1887 — Walter Fredrick Osborne.
Here are the books I found today:
The Sea, The Sea by Irish Murdoch — modern classic, Irish literature, philosophical.
The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco — crime/mystery, Italian literature, historical fiction.
Travel with a Tangerine; a Journey in the Footprints of Ibn Battutah by Tim Mackintosh-Smith — travel writing memoir, Middle Eastern & North African literature, biography.
A Beautiful Question; Finding Nature's Deep Design by Frank Wilczek — non fiction, scientific, philosophical, historical.
God Emperor of Dune (book 3) by Frank Herbert — science fiction, fantasy, philosophical, classic.
The flowers around my books are flowers I've collected around the neighbourhood and our back garden and pressed between my chemistry, math, microbiology and pharmaceutics textbooks. I've been doing this for about two or three years now. I've always admired and desired these 'girlish' or old-fashioned hobbies and one day I realised that I could just do them, I didn't have to keep watching from a distance, at pictures and moodboards. And I did. I started, making my own bookmarks, learning embroidery, learned to hemm and fix up clothes, pressing flowers, owning plants, drying flowers and herbs, practicing henna designs.
Everyone, say thank you to my cat who flopped beside me while I was having the loot photoshoot. I had to move fast to get the books around her before she moved away. You know how fickle cats are.
I reblog bookish content and since I have a home library I also make some of it myself. On my blog, you'll find pictures of books I've taken, book reviews, book recs, favourite quotes shared etc. Consult the pinned masterlist to navigate your way xx

A couple of thrift stores have opened in my area in the past year. I didn't expect to find any merchandise, but after @i-believe-in-unicorns-and-you showed me the Rick and Morty sweatpants she found at Marshall's and I thought about the crazy finds on @shiftythrifting, I figured I'd give it a shot.
And who knew: it was time for a thrift store roundup! 👚🧦
The first store had a section for gifts and accessories. My expectations were low, but when I rounded the corner, the shelves were loaded with Rick and Morty stocking stuffers. The first thing I saw was this bathrobe:
Hmm, that's a cute figure...maybe someone should draw Rick wearing that. 🤔
This sock packaging is adorable. It looks like a pint of ice cream!
On a similar note, I actually thought these were cans of pickle juice. Adult Swim has no problem selling Toxic Rick and Shrimp Rick energy drinks, so it wouldn't be off-brand, but nope: they're boxer shorts that advertise your SWAG.
I realize that Swag is the brand name, but selling Pickle Rick boxers with SWAG on the waistband isn't exactly helping the show's bro-y reputation. The can is cute, though.
Let's all celebrate Rickmas...with Pickle Rick!
Evidently, socks are a hot item. I think they're the new ugly Christmas sweaters.
In fact, Cool Rick wants you to buy these socks!
And you can complete your outfit with festive sweatpants.
Next stop: Marshall's. They continued the theme with an advent calendar. 12 days of socks!
Advent calendars have been getting more luxurious over the years. Some people spend hundreds of dollars on calendars loaded with jewelry, ornaments, food and beauty products. Apparently, 2021's most expensive calendar was custom-made and cost $10 million. Must be nice!
Anyway, back to the proletariat: I love the design on these boxers. OK, maybe Rick didn't think it through, but he's proud of his gift!
More sweatpants! "Anatomy Park" is one of my least favorite episodes, so I'd ask for the receipt for that one.
I did think John Oliver's character was funny. "Would you like to ride...the bone train?"
Finally, I went to Five Below. They had one of the strangest pieces of merchandise I've ever seen: a projector that casts a picture of Rick and Morty underneath your car.
I could see somebody doing that once for Halloween or another event, but all the time? Wearing merchandise isn't enough--you have to represent the show while you're driving? Are guys hoping that Dan Harmon will see this and be so impressed that he makes out with them a little?
Then again, I guess there's a reason it has a clearance sticker.
