Whatever you celebrate, I wish you a merry one.
Just thank whatever deity you chose to believe in—if you believe in one—for the discovery of alcohol. It’s the only way many humans seem to be able to make it through this time of the year with any sanity left intact.
*sigh*
I often wonder why Christians don’t celebrate חֲנֻכָּה, since that’s what Yeshua would have celebrated. Eight days of presents! Then again, many don’t even seem to comprehend that Yeshua was Jewish.
Speaking of presents, in just a few more hours the stores will reopen to sell you more stuff! Or to give you money back for the stuff you got that you didn’t want.
That is what Christmas is really about, right? A time for stores to make a profit, and for consumers to go further in debt? That sounds exactly like something that Yeshua would want people to do.
I think I’m getting more misanthropic the older I get. I would make a great cutter if I didn’t think it would hurt so bad.
But I digress. Or do I?
I guess it’s time to pour myself another adult beverage.
Until next time...
Have a jolly good day anyway… 🙂
Happy Merry Erik and the Husbear!
I hope you are safe and sound. Warm and full. Held close by your husbear and know that you’re loved by many friends!
The magic of the Solstice is contantly new to me, no matter the time of year. We live on a magical planet that has amazing seasons and interesting astronomical events (such as solstices and equinoxes). To me, that’s more fun than the other stuff.
In any case, Winter and Yule are a time of enjoying that which you have gathered, feasting, story-telling, resting, enjoying the long evenings with books, friends, feasts, beasts. And for enjoying the stars in the Winter sky 🙂
Merry Winter 🙂 May you be warm and enveloped in love and comfort!
Don’t cut yourself. You’re far too cute for that. I fucking hate Christmas too, but I don’t let it get me down. I just laugh @ the idiots who run around making fools of themselves and have a drink or 2.

I, for one, am glad to see that America has once again successfully blown its Christmas load. Now it’s time for the clean-up.
better make it a strong one hohoho
In Catholic school they jumped through hoops to suppress Yeshua’s Jewishness at every opportunity. It had to be admitted occasionally but it was never stressed.
According to the Greeks, wine was invented by the God Dionysus whose cult originated in the area that is Turkey today and spread westward into Greece.
Happy Holidays to you both. It was great meeting you this year.
Read Moby File today.
I.N.R.I. JESUS OF NAZARATH KING OF THE JEWS.
That’s what was emblazoned on the BIG cross over the alter of my childhood catholic indoctrination center.
The older I get the more I think that gift is exchange is just f’ing stupid. Most of the time, if we see something we want during the year, we just buy it. It’s to the point that we’re basically just exchanging money for money. If we truly want to do something special at Christmas, do like my family did this year; we collected the money that we would’ve spent on each other and give it to a family who was “TRULY” in need.
Hey. Jesus is the reason for the overspending. That little bitch got GOLD, myrrh and frankincense at his first christmas… and he wasn’t even a day old!
