If you say "Bah, humbug" to Christmas, you may be visited by three ghosts, each with an important lesson to teach.
If you say "Bah, humbug" to Hanukkah, Judah Maccabee's gonna come teach you a lesson personally

Hanukkah already has a mascot: Judah Maccabee, the friendly violent religious extremist

As the person who does most of the VM socials, let me tell you this: bluesky is absolutely the worst platform of the bunch for slapping random adult content warnings on innocent posts to bury them. Would super appreciate if you share the post below like hell, and donate a fiver!

Just mixed up Beethoven's 5th and Bach's Tocatta & Fugue and accidentally referred to myself as a 'cultural igoranus'.
Not sure if I need more coffee or less.

I'm not shocked. Of course they did. This will be one reason why the UK government has been falling over itself not to use the g-word.

If companies actually cared about users complying with a Terms of Service, they'd put up a legalese-to-human translation with search and hyperlinks.
The only functional purpose of a Terms of Service is to deny liability.

It would be extremely cool if a bunch of people called payment processors over Black Friday weekend to ask why they're telling people what they can and can't buy with their own money. This holiday season, give the gift of calling payment processors over Black Friday weekend
Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.
What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.
