What do the bands and brands whose merch we buy say about who we are and what we value? María Jesús Contreras Commodities trading If you want to recreate the 1960s winged eyeliner that Cailee Spaeny wears in “Priscilla,” you’ll have to do so without the aid of the limited-edition makeup kit produced by the film’s studio, A24. It’s sold out. Ditto the dark gray sweatshirt with tonal “Priscilla” embroidery across the front. You can, however, still purchase a baby-doll T-shirt bedizened with the film’s title in rhinestones. And the [heart-shaped locket](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnMejTP0TdaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8xMS8wNi9zdHlsZS9wcmlzY2lsbGEtbmVja2xhY2UtbG9ja2V0Lmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIzMTExMSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMDc0OTAmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE0OTc1MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZUrTY09lhY7Q51IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) by the jewelry designer J.

I was chatting this week with some colleagues about the locket, about what animates someone to buy a pricey piece of jewelry that’s being sold as a merchandise tie-in for a movie. Is it love for the “[stealthily devastating](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnMejTP0TVaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8xMC8yNi9tb3ZpZXMvcHJpc2NpbGxhLXJldmlldy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMzExMTEmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTA3NDkwJm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNDk3NTImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmVK02NPZYWO0OdSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~)” film “Priscilla”? For Priscilla Presley herself, or Elvis, or the film’s director, Sofia Coppola? Perhaps one just likes the necklace. A24, the studio behind films like “Hereditary,” “Midsommar,” “Uncut Gems” and “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” knows it’s probably some combination of these factors, mixed with love for the studio itself. A24 is known for its canny collaborations with hip designers — a “Hereditary” tee, designed by the trippy design studio [Online Ceramics](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnMejTP0TmaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8xMC8yNS9zdHlsZS9ob3ctb25saW5lLWNlcmFtaWNzLWtlZXBzLWl0cy1jb29sLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIzMTExMSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMDc0OTAmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE0OTc1MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZUrTY09lhY7Q51IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD), originally $65, now sells for at least double that if you can track one down on a resale site. You can also buy hoodies, half-snap fleeces, dog leashes and dopp kits featuring the A24 logo. Our conversation quickly turned to questions of identity. Why do we buy merch, or shy away from it? What does the merch you wear say about who you are, what you believe in? You might buy a sticker from your local bakery to support the business, or wear a [Renaissance tour](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnMejTP0TmaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wNy8zMS9zdHlsZS9iZXlvbmNlLXJlbmFpc3NhbmNlLXRvdXItZmFuLWxvb2tzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIzMTExMSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMDc0OTAmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE0OTc1MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZUrTY09lhY7Q51IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) shirt to declare yourself a member of the BeyHive. “If I ever move away from New York, I’d buy a tote bag from my favorite Brooklyn sandwich shop,” one of my colleagues declared. Carrying the bag in your own city seemed too boosterish, too earnest for a New Yorker, whereas outside the city, the local merch telegraphs your hometown pride and N.Y.C. pedigree. Once you leave the place, the merch becomes a souvenir, a nostalgic keepsake. Another colleague, an avowed merch skeptic, got her daughter an Los Angeles Dodgers shirt when her family relocated from L.A. to New York, memorializing the matrix of allegiances the move evoked. Perhaps we were overcomplicating it, getting too Gen X in our obsession with authenticity. Justin Bieber famously ignited the ire of indie-rock snobs when he wore [a rare Nirvana T-shirt](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnMejTP0T7aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhlcmluZ2VyLmNvbS9tdXNpYy8yMDIzLzkvMjEvMjM4ODI5MjcvbmlydmFuYS12aW50YWdlLXQtc2hpcnRzLWhlYXJ0LXNoYXBlZC1ib3gtaW4tdXRlcm8_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIzMTExMSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMDc0OTAmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE0OTc1MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZUrTY09lhY7Q51IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) to the American Music Awards in 2015: How dare a purveyor of pop hits appropriate the cred of a beloved countercultural institution! Why does merch have to mean so much? Of course, it doesn’t. Debating the laws of merch is a diversion, an amusing exercise in questioning our own pieties. I made no fewer than two friends in college because one of us was wearing [a Pixies T-shirt](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnMejTP0TqaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wNy8yOS9icmllZmluZy90aGUtZGF2ZS1tYXR0aGV3cy1iYW5kLXJlY29uc2lkZXJlZC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMzExMTEmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTA3NDkwJm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNDk3NTImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmVK02NPZYWO0OdSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~): “I’m into this band, you’re into this band, let’s see if that’s enough to fuel a meaningful relationship.” (In both cases, it was.) We’re heading into an election year. The merch machine’s transmission is shifting into overdrive, raring to emit its bumper stickers, buttons and lawn signs. I’m trying to stay focused on the things that I love, the bands and books that have shaped me, and how those enthusiasms are the easiest way I know to connect with other people. One of my colleagues told me how excited he was to buy a Taylor Swift Eras Tour tee for his daughter, a memento to remind her of this delirious season of Swiftie mania, of friendship bracelets, deep belonging and lyrics belted in collective joy. That’s the type of connection I want to cultivate: the impulse to bond over the things that light me up, that bring me closer to other people. That sentiment doesn’t make for a particularly cool or catchy piece of merch, but communicating it plainly seems a project crucially worth investing in.

All it takes is 10 seconds and some hand cranking to have a peeled and cored (!) apple, sliced into perfect, juicy rings. It’s exponentially faster than any other method. So speedy, in fact, that even if you only whip it out a few times a year, the investment is still worth it. And on a day like Thanksgiving, when all burners are firing and every saved second counts?

It’s also the final match for two American soccer greats, Megan Rapinoe and Ali Krieger, who won back-to-back World Cup titles for the U.S. in 2015 and 2019. Rapinoe, 38, is now a forward with OL Reign, based in Seattle; Krieger, 39, leads the defense for New Jersey’s Gotham FC. Both announced that they would retire after this season. Expect a fierce farewell match — neither team has ever won the N.W.S.L. title, and both players would surely love to end their careers with one last milestone. 8 p.m. Eastern on CBS.
