For the first time ever I made it through the gauntlet of Whamageddon unscathed. Just made a donation to Terrence Higgins Trust as I know George Michael was a big supporter of this charity during his life. Merry Christmas! 🎄

A daft thread where I will post a Christmas song every day until Christmas Day. Hopefully drawing attention to some different songs than the 12 that get endlessly repeated on UK radio - or at least interesting covers/variants thereof.

944) Covenbots. Double, double toil and troublebots. Witchbots three who meet to places hexes, sow curses and generally get up to witchy mischief. Cauldronbot is a repurposed prototype Brewbot. Frogbot not included (but they can turn another robot into one anyway). #SmallRobotsRemonstered #Halloween

![[Scene is ANCIENT GREECE - where SOCRATES and PLATO and others are sitting round, thinking]
1
SOCRATES:
Plato..
PLATO:
Yes Socrates?
2
SOCRATES:
Can you tell me, are you human?
PLATO:
Why… yes, Socrates
3
SOCRATES:
And would you agree, Plato, that a human knows what a chariot is?
PLATO:
Um, yep
4
SOCRATES:
So you can tell me, then
5
[Socrates produces a papyrus, showing a drawing of the corner of a chariot wheel]
SOCRATES:
*Is that a chariot*?
6
PLATO:
Well
that’s more just a bit of wheel
7
SOCRATES:
So not a *chariot*.
PLATO:
No.
8
SOCRATES:
[Producing another papyrus with the full drawing of the chariot, chopped into boxes]
So if a man were challenged to “tap the boxes containing chariots to prove you’re human” when he was just trying to check his ClubCard points... *where could he tap*?
9
PLATO:
Well you can’t tap any of them really
10
SOCRATES:
So are we not human?
PLATO:
‘Spose not.
11
[Bleak pause]
12
PLATO:
I’ll get the hemlock
SOCRATES:
Yeah

I've read Queer As Folklore and found it hugely entertaining and informative. Would highly recommend!
I will be asking to remove 'Queer As Folklore' from the long list for the Polari Prize 2025.
