This is Yuletide, everybody make a scene

I am the sock with the tear-away face
Low-effort with your gift and gone without a trace
I am the "who" when you call, "Who does an exchange without acknowledging their gift?"
I am the wanker blowing through your fics comments
I am the coalie dragging your letter at night
Filling your exchange to the brim with fright!

This is Coaltide!

I usually love swaps, but I'm still working from home / not really leaving the house except for grocery shopping, and I don't think I want to deal with shopping for my recip and going to the post office. =/ can't decide if I should at least do bookswap on "ebooks only" mode or if it would just ruin the fun.

Pick a shop in whatever country they’re in and have it delivered to their address with a gift card/receipt from you, no packaging necessary. If you’re concerned about getting/spreading COVID, that’ll probably be more hygienic anyway.
