32 Budget-Friendly Desk Gifts For Your Work Bestie
A NeeDoh "Dream Drop," that'll be perfect for anyone looking to relieve some pent-up anxiety without leaving their desk. (Too many tabs open both literally and figuratively!) This lil' squish block is super satisfying to play with and reviewers love that it isn't sticky (no gross debris to try to clean off). A mini waving inflatable tube man that'll make them want to throw their hands up in the air and yell "WOOHOO!" Transparent sticky notes, so when they write themselves lil' reminders they can place them anywhere and everywhere without taking away from the aesthetic they've created for their workspace. A tiny bookshelf that'll quickly become their favorite way to de-stress after a long work day — they can shake it to send the teeny books flying, then (after a restorative deep breath) put them back on the shelf. My apologies to their rage room membership, this might just be the solution they need. A portable Bluetooth retro-style keyboard to replace the clunky one they received when they first started the job — this one is as cute as it is practical and can be used on the go. A "Beverage Buddee" can cover they can add to their Diet Coke can or preferred seltzer. It'll keep dust, bugs, and other random debris out of their drink (yuck) so they can rest easy knowing their drink is safe when they leave it at their desk to run to the restroom or go grab some lunch. A dimmable sad duck nightlight guaranteed to bring a smile to their face each time they glance down at it. He'll not-so-happily become their daily desk companion. (We all need one, honestly.) Oversized flower-shaped hair claws that'll help salvage their Monday mood — even on their worst hair day yet. How could anyone possibly stay grumpy when their updo looks like a garden? A special edition set of Little People figures inspired by Clueless that'll keep them company at their desk and ensure they'll have the cutest workspace in the office — as if someone could top their sense of decorating style! String lights that'll add a warmth to their work space and provide them with ample opportunities to scream-sing "autumn leaves falling down like pieces into placeeeee" a la Taylor Swift's "All Too Well" since their fave season is nearly en route. A precious little mushroom lamp because you both, admittedly, spend most of your time hanging out at your desks. It comes with a remote that'll help them swiftly choose from 16 colors and four brightness modes. And an adorable mushroom cup/tea infuser in case they're really into hot beverages and anything that screams "I-BELONG-IN-AN-ISOLATED-FOREST-CABIN-WITH-FAIRY-CREATURES." Retro-inspired notepads that aren't sticky, so they can quickly write down a reminder to pick up milk on the way home and throw it into their bag without fear of it coming out covered in crumbs and debris. Gross. Or a two-pack of undated planners that'll look cute on their desk while also providing them with the perfect space to note that they need to plan their cat's birthday party, text their mom about their date from last night, and pick up some coffee beans. A duo of glass tumblers (one for you and one for them!) you can use to toast the fool who *~ghosted~* them last weekend. Cheers to sippin' iced coffee in style. Or a glass tumbler for glamming up their daily iced coffee. It'll look super cute next to their laptop, and there's just something about a fancy tumbler that makes drinks taste 10x better amirite? Cheers to THAT. A Java Sok to keep their drink chilled, perfect for anyone who is sick and tired of drinking watered-down iced coffee. They can't help it that they had a very busy morning fielding emails — and their beverage shouldn't have to pay the price! Plus, an aesthetic bear–covered mug that'll be the cutest one in their office stash and simply make them smile whenever they reach for it. It's microwave-safe and likely to become as cherished as the plush teddy they don't admit to still snuggling with every night. A mug warmer that'll make sure they actually get to take a sip of hot coffee even if they've gotten distracted by a bazillion tasks since brewing it in the office kitchen. Tozo earbuds many swear are *just* like AirPods but for waaaaaay cheaper — a must-have for your coworker who sits next to that one person who always seems to be loudly blabbering away on the phone. A set of LED lightsaber chopsticks that'll make your weekly sushi lunches just a bit more fun — workplace gossip with a side of Star Wars?! Sign me up. A set of cute box cutters for when the 10 packages they ordered while their *~head was in the clouds~* arrives and they need to swiftly open them before their boss sees 😅. A set of heart-shaped faux leather bookmarks for anyone in your office book club who agrees dog-earing the pages of a book should be a sin (especially one borrowed from the library!). They can slip one of these cuties onto the corner of a page until they can get back to reading. A transparent mouse and memo pad they can use to keep their to-do list under hand, literally. They won't be able to make excuses about "forgetting to call your mom back" when it's written down in front of them all day, sorry! A magnetic cord holder they can rely on to keep the bajillion wires they somehow need to get your laptop functioning perfectly in check. No more internally screaming when their charging wire slips behind their desk! And an updated version of the Taylor Swift Little Golden Book your self-proclaimed Swiftie of a colleague will cherish. They'd be remiss not to say it's "the best thing that's ever been mine." 😉. The illustrations are gorgeous and it'll look so cute on display on their desk. The new *~style~* comes with 22 (ooOoOh ooOoOh) bonus pages including stickers and fill-in-the-blank activities. A set of Monkey Noodles that stretch up to 8 feet (!?!??) and will provide anyone with a non-disruptive way to scratch their fidgety itch. Perfect for anyone looking to relieve some pent up anxiety without leaving their desk. A "Liquipen" for anyone who grew up with a lava lamp but knows setting one up at their desk probably isn't *ideal*. Watching the little blobs float up and down will ease their mind and give them a chance to regroup before diving back into a project. Lanolips Multipurpose Superbalm — it'll moisturize their lips without making them feel sticky (a big win) but can *also* be used on their cuticles, elbows, and any other patch of dry skin they come across while procrastinating answering work emails. Self-adhesive sliding under-desk drawers for anyone who has a plethora of pens but no room for a filing cabinet or clunky desk — these can be popped right under the sleek space-saving desk they already have! And pretty in pink desk accessories to transform their desk from "hot mess" to "oh, yes!" The set comes with everything they could possibly need to keep their space nicely organized — a gift that'll keep on giving.

Woody Allen Compared Jeffrey Epstein to Dracula in Birthday Letter
Disgraced filmmaker Woody Allen likened the late Jeffrey Epstein to Dracula and recalled Epstein's New York City home filled 'often by several young women' in a letter the Manhattan director wrote to the late financier and convicted sex offender for his 63rd birthday in 2016. The letter, a photocopy of which was included in a recent New York Times story about Epstein's Upper East Side townhome, recounted dinner parties that Allen and wife Soon-Yi Previn attended as neighbors. Allen said the home reminded him of 'Castle Dracula where [Bela] Lugosi has three young female vampires who service the place. Add to this that Jeffrey lives in a vast house alone, one can picture him sleeping in damp earth.' More from The Hollywood Reporter Sean "Diddy" Combs' Attorney Says They've Asked Trump Administration About Pardon Trump Says "Gayle King's Career Is Over," Shares Report Claiming 'CBS Mornings' Is "Woke" 'South Park' Responds to Homeland Security Using Show Image: "Wait, So We ARE Relevant?" The parties Allen mentioned were also attended by 'politicians, scientists, teachers, magicians, comedians, intellectuals, journalists, an entymologist, a concert pianist,' the filmmaker added. Nearly six years after Epstein was found dead in his jail cell, the disgraced billionaire is back in the headlines amid mounting pressure for the Trump administration to release the so-called Epstein files. On July 17, the Wall Street Journal first revealed a birthday letter book compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell for Epstein containing messages from Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton, fashion designer Vera Wang and billionaire Leon Black, among others. Trump then filed a $10 billion lawsuit against News Corp for defamation and named former ally Rupert Murdoch in the complaint. The 2016 birthday letter from Allen made public by the Times will inevitably be seen against the background of Allen's sullied reputation after resurfaced allegations of sexual abuse from his adopted stepdaughter, Dylan Farrow. The four-part HBO Allen v. Farrow docuseries featured Mia Farrow speaking publicly for the first time in decades about Allen, her former partner and collaborator, and the sexual abuse allegations that have long been leveled at him by Dylan Farrow, who also appeared in the documentary. Allen has denied the accusations and was not charged by the Connecticut state's attorney following a 1993 investigation.
