Which reminds me, I should get the sewing machine out more often...
One day something will happen — a wedding, a graduation, a job promotion, Jake Paul getting knocked out, Andrew Tate getting knocked out the next day — and you’ll want the right outfit to celebrate. Buy that special outfit now, so you’re ready when that next unexpected moment arrives.

Here's a link to the collection, if you're interested. There are also some really beautiful necklaces by a Ukrainian jewelry maker made from Russian shrapnel, although the pieces are a bit more expensive, as they're more intricate.

Article 22 is a jewelry company that repurposes Vietnam War shrapnel and battlefield debris. A portion of their profits goes to the Mine Advisory Group, which works to remove landmines still left in Laos (they've removed more than 300k mines!). I like the company's "Shard" necklace collection.

A hill on which I will die: Calvin and Hobbes is one of the great pieces of 20th-century American literature in no small part because it was never turned into anything aside from a comic strip. Leave it be.

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.
Praying for his full & speedy recovery.
And so deeply inspired by his example.

Yule goat! Yule goat! Yule goat!🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Another possible remaining Yule tradition is the Yule goat.
Throughout Sweden during the Christmas season, large goats are constructed out of straw.
This tradition might have originated as a tribute to the god Thor, who was said to ride in a chariot pulled by goats.

Yule ≠ Christmas
Yule is one of the oldest winter solstice festivals, with origins among the ancient Norse thousands of years ago.
Although today it’s heavily associated with, and even confused with, Christmas, the celebration existed long before Christianity. 🧵⬇️

A heartfelt thank you to all who buy from independent artists, hire us, or even share our work or give words of encouragement. Even the most established of artists are feeling a decline in work and sales this year. Your support in all or any way is felt and appreciated amongst us! Thank you!!
