The past couple years I've concluded I definitely suffer from a low-level seasonal depression: about this time of the winter on a sunny day, I look around and realize holy shit I haven't straightened up this house since Christmas

Besides, if I cancelled our paper subscription the lovely older mobility challenged couple who deliver it and spoil our dogs with a treat bag every Friday, Christmas stockings etc would be deeply missed! They amaze me!

So, I hopped onto the Gigablue website (they're in Germany: store.gigablue.de), and picked it up. They offer options for the hard disk size (up to 4TB, though you can add in your own SATA), and adding in a Dual DVB-C/T2 tuner for Saorview/Freeview. I got that plus a 1TB disk.

The specs... (5/n)

We've given Frito's eldest an Effin Birds calendar the past couple years for Christmas. :D

When Kallie collides into Chase it’s decidedly not love-at-first-sight, but as they grow closer feelings change; however, with a feud, family drama, and a deluded rival, banishment seems more likely than a happily-ever-after. #Cupit #YA #amquerying

Meg & Oli set aside their differences to play Romeo+Juliet, Oli to get an agent before it’s too late for his sick mum to see & Meg to reunite her family b4 it’s too broken to repair—but they can’t fall for each other IRL; their love would be as doomed as the characters they’re playing

Lots of love as always on Valentine's Day James @jamescurran.bsky.social. Here's to a lifetime of good times and fun times xx

Work for a couple of hours and then some lovely valentines plans later, cannot wait! 🥰

First time I'm actually in a relationship on the most consumerism of holidays (well maybe bar Christmas)

Tsuruko「Valentine... It's the second-best event after Christmas where we can enjoy lovey-dovey stories between couples! Ahh~~~ My lovey-dovey couple antenna is reacting to the signals from everywhere! I have to hurry up and see! 」

I always wanted a Spirograph, was a long while coming & rather disappointing after the first week! My sister was always jealous so I bought her a second hand one for Christmas a couple of years ago! She’s 65!

Giving my 3D printer a go for the first time since repeated failures during the Christmas break. Changed a couple settings that may or may not do a damned thing. We'll see.

8. My most treasured memory would have to be a couple days before Christmas being bummed and sad and being summoned outside to see a big black dog all excited jump out of a car and come over to me and sniff and kiss me all over and then cuddling and laying by her and with her all day.

Romance, magic, an edict, a secret, a feud, Kallie had no idea moving to North Pole Village would change her life so much. Chase never guessed a collision on an icy sidewalk would turn his world upside down. (Currently querying). #Cupit #YA

Dear America x A Christmas Vintage

When a young woman feels lost after running from an abusive situation, it is her great grandmother who reminds her that no matter how far we may roam there will always be a place to call home.

Last week, we brought you the story of a young couple who got engaged just before Christmas in downtown Cleveland at The Arcade. The moment was captured by a local photographer, but the photographer didn’t know anything about the couple- until now!

Especially when Strange New Worlds is all about Pike and even has it appear before him a couple times a season like the ghost of christmas future

Friends had their first Christmas in Spain & it was the wettest on record. Dams are full and overflowing. A couple of weeks ago we went to Morocco for a week (90 day rule) from Spain & were diverted from Tétouan to Tangier because the runway was under water. 5/7 days were cold with persistent rain.

Was talking to my brothers neighbors (Catholic, Indian couple) last Christmas. They moved to Texas from Boston & she said it was the most racism she’s ever encountered. They’re in Austin but experience otherwise spans 3 countries & several US cities w/a lot of travel in between.

Thank you it was Christmas Day a couple of years ago 😊

I’ve had it a couple of years and managed with ibuprofen, loads of water and switching ale for red wine (made sense to me). I’ve had a nightmare since Christmas though, so called it in to the doc. Fucking hate my 40s

My husband loves the Makita drill I got him for Christmas a couple years ago, for whatever that’s worth.

Not all but a couple of mine:
Flushed Away
Arthur Christmas
Frankenweenie
Early Man
The Lego Movie 2
Onward
Trolls World Tour (keep in mind, this was when my theaters first reopened in July of 2020)
Sponge On The Run (I live in Canada)
Transformers One
Elio
Tron Ares
Have asked this before and always like the responses. What are your biggest “I saw that in the first run cinema” flexes? Couple of mine:

Transformers: The Movie (1986)
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
Office Space (1999)

So here’s a true story that happened before Christmas. I turned on the 24 hour seven day a week Christmas music channel, a couple days before the big event.

I’m cruising, listening and suddenly it starts to play Leonard Cohen‘s Hallelujah. It was a great thing to listen to at Christmas. 😁
