Christmas is horseshit, it's purely for the purpose of juicing the economy and keeping a bunch of useless companies in business.
And yes, picture books are wasteful. Let's chop down some more trees so my relative can look at this dumb glossy book once then leave it sitting on the shelf for the next 20 years.
Infact, I'm sure christmas alone accounts for a massive chunk of ecological damage done to the world. Everybody buys a ton of food that gets wasted, bunch of unwanted metal/plastic gifts that end up in a landfill, psychopaths leaving their christmas lights on for 3 months, waste of paper on cards, wrapping etc.
I'm disgusted.
