Sing "Ox and Ass", you cowards!

Blackmore's Night's version of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" removed the name Christ but changed nothing else.

So now it's a religiously neutral song about whichever child in Bethlehem you think reconciled God with sinners.

Whenever i read about the cognition of evangelical faith spaces i remember they sing a sex song at gatherings because it has the word “Hallelujah” in it

Coen's Hallelujah is the most offensive instance of turning an unrelated song into a Christmas song, but Hard Candy Christmas is the funniest.

Ladies, be careful out in the meadow. This Parson Brown-looking snowman creep was hitting on me.

First year as a Planner Girlie in earnest. I'm hitting the point in the journal where I need a pencil board to write because it's too close to the back of the cover. Hitting that right when starting the December notes is a good feeling.

The worst book club experience is when someone didn't read the book but still wants to participate in conversation based on what they imagine the book is saying from others' commentary.

I end up recapping to make sure they have a "fair" understanding and conversation just dies.

Bringing some digestifs to Thanksgiving because I need something classy to balance that I'm also bringing gummy bears made out of wine

I finally started making tamales on Christmas instead of a turkey. Told guests if that breaks anyone's heart, someone else is welcome to make a turkey. Nobody has taken me up on it yet.
it fascinates me how most everyone in the U.S. does turkey for Thanksgiving, but we are all over the map as to what we eat for Christmas (as is proper for a hugely diverse nation).

I come from a Christmas prime rib roast family, myself.
I also use the bacon method. Although turkey is Christmas dinner where I come from.

Wicked: For Good is infuriating.
Giving Elphaba a song that's "The 1619 Project but for Oz" is a good idea for fleshing out act 2, but it's a dogshit song with stupid politics.

Giving Glinda a song that's just Thank Goodness but even more on the nose is a terrible choice but I like the song a lot.

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.

OK but if emails take down Trump, and a blow job finally ruins Clinton, it definitely proves God is a really funny woman right

Does anyone get a physical magazine/paper delivered that they recommend? I get Wired and the Methodist's "Response", and am looking to add one or two more in my annual subscription shuffling.

Long form articles or even short stories are something i want more of - i want to read good writing again.

So I made a lentil soup today and it's SO GOOD? Like I'm obsessed with this?
