    Awesome gift ideas for the non-religious

    And a skeptic - or a Humanistic Pagan - can still come up with awesome gift ideas.
    I wish I was crafty so I could make those solar system bracelets for some people...
    baah.

    I didn't want to derail this too much, so I split it into what I think will be my favorite thread ever...

      Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

          The Arduino sounds a lot like Rasberry PI,the mini computer board.

              Seconding food. I home-make all my gifts because I'm poor and make decent desserts. As the years went on, now people actually just request that I cook them something instead of buying them something.

                Re: Awesome gift ideas for the non-religious

                So, I had the idea to make DNA models out of perler beads, twist them into their double helix shapes and use them as one of our Yule tree ornaments (we've also been making snowflakes). I've not tried this yet, but I'm hoping it works better than my experiment last night in making a flat representation of the double helix...the problem being that the turn becomes a single bead, which tends to break. If I filled in the background and a border, it would hold, but that's not what I'm was going for


                Regarding food...I like things in jars...

                      Those pins are actually very neat. Especially the rings.
