Not that I disagree with the basic message, but maybe denouncing "superficial glitter" for the holidays would be less hypocritical if done without benefit of the gold-embroidered hat, robes, and the über bling-y gilded staff? Pope Urges People to Look Beyond "Superficial Glitter"
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Merry Christmas to those christmassing!
Happy Movie Day to others! (I would love a movie Xmas some day.)
I am cooking turkey dinner for the family for the first time. I woudl say my family's confidence in my turkey skills is low. Both my sisters have called to check in already. (And I thought I was going have to punch my sister in the face last night if she gave me anymore "advice.")

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Merry Christmas to those that celebrate, Happy Sunday to those that don't!

Off to the Xmas brunch at the Old Ladies' Penitentiary soon. I'm spending my day Making Mom Happy, which is probably the best present I can give her.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
You're a good daughter, Theo. And you have a good brother, Tep.
There're gale-force gusts out there, so we're hunkering by the (dvd on the flatscreen) fire, listening to a random collection of Christmas and esoteric holiday cds found in a box while looking for something else, and smelling the Christmas ham. H is speaking Ukrainian with his mom on the phone, and the kids will call later sometime today. Neighbors drift by as the mood takes them.
H has football this evening, which has seriously screwed our recent tradtion of viewing extended version LotR trilogy. We may do that tomorrow. Or Wednesday. Till then there's excellent coffee, and Yuletide. ::raises mug:: Merry Happy, all of you.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Wow! Also because I only see her in occasional pictures, I'd forgotten how stunning JZ is. Makes me worry about my memory sometimes. Not the sort of thing a man should forget.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love how the heights and relative sizes in that photo have no relationship to reality. Looking good, Seth.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I got Kristen a meat tenderizer that is brass knuckles with the flat spiky back so you can punch your chicken flat.
We thought of you, ita.
