Now updated and with new material Hello, Cruel World features a catalog of 121 alternatives to suicide that range from the playful (moisturize!), to the irreverent (shatter some family values), to the controversial, fun, challenging and easy. Encouraging readers to unleash their hearts' harmless desires, the book has only one directive: "Don't be mean." It is this guiding principle that brings the reader on a self-validating journey and toward a resounding decision to embrace life.
Using graphics and checklists, and with great humor and gutsiness, Kate Bornstein dares readers to re-envision the gender system as we know it. She offers stories and insights that are tenderly intimate and unapologetically edgy. Hello, Cruel World also includes:

Great option. For less clean up! these are a must
Style: 8.5 Inch, Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1)
Inexpensive, sturdy, perfect instead of heavy dishes. Good versatility and size. Thick and they don’t crumple when a full supper is on them.

You get fantastic reliability without breaking the bank. For everyday meals, parties, or any occasion where you want convenience without sacrificing quality, these are perfect. A great product at a good price point. Highly recommend!

Washable quality paper plates
Style: 10 Inch, Size: 150 Count (Pack of 1)
We've used these paper plates for years for all kinds of things and find them to be really sturdy and washable. With a pleasant design that fits any decor, they are wonderful for everyday use. I really like the fact that the top surface can be lightly washed and the plates reused. They come in a package of 150 and are really good value for the money.
