I'm trying to get ahead of the short story #writing game for the holidays.

The best I got is a visit by the Mortuary Solar Sail ship 'DeathTwo' as they collect a string of ex-sentients for de-watering before deposit on Mercury.

Oh. The holiday is #Halloween, not #Christmas, if anyone was wondering.

This is the correct theme, isn't it?
I'm never 100% sure I have the concepts correct.

What would you say to a #queer #christmas #SciFi adeventure?

Have just started working on our newest #musical — Lance McKrack Saves Dr. X. Mass: A sci-if drag adventure.

Meet the gang:
Lance McKrack - Rock ‘n Roll Space Jockey
Lucinda ‘Luce’ Leggs - second in command of the Stellar Streaker
Fanny Crag - science officer
And Cookie - the plucky cook with a heart of gold and a rather bad drinking problem

They are the protectors of Dr. X. Mass, the inventor of Christmas and his amazing Spirit of the Season Energy Ray.

But can they stop the evil Professor Brainovski, his adoring robot, Ignatius Inferno and their mutant henchmen? All the while trying to void the censorship clutches of the malevolent, Gladys Pearlclutcher!

Coming to the #IsleOfWight and streaming in December 2023

Okay, have not done with in a while - but I want to give all of my islanders in #ACNH the same outfit. They keep wearing the Holiday Sweater I gave them around #Christmas and it's high time they changed!

So, since it's spring, let's do something light.

So I want all of you to help me pick. Here are the four options I'm considering in a #poll below. I'll include links to the individual outfits / shirts in the follow-up comment.

So, vote now!

The #costoflivingcrisis in fine detail:

In the first six weeks of this year 14,874 jobs have been lost in the #retail sector; of which 11,689 have been from major/large retailers paring away at their #workforce (after #Christmas); some of this will be restructuring, some of it shedding 'seasonal staff', and as a proportion of the over 3m who work in retail, its a not massive retrenchment... but in every case of a lost job households will be hit hard at a time when no-one can really afford it.

#February 2nd
#OTD Christmas decorations are to be taken down.

According to #Folklore, #Christmas greens were enjoyed until #Candlemas, but then the focus was on #Spring.

In England, the #Snowdrop is the first spring flower & has the common names "Fair Maid of February" & "Candlemas Bells."

"Snowdrops, in purest white array,
Rear their heads on Candlemas Day."

Snowdrops have an #InnerStrength.
They contain a natural form of #Antifreeze, which helps them survive & bloom in freezing weather.

This inverts #PublicSchool districts that make the design of the #academic #calendar seem like an #inclusive process by offering the option of days off on #minorities' major #holidays, but then we get outvoted for extra days off around #Christian holidays like #Christmas/#Easter.

Elul 29 is the day before #RoshHashanah.
Tevet 13 is December 25.
Tevet 20 is January 1.
Adar II 19 is March 29 (Good Friday, which is a day off in many public schools).

I have a relative who is #Christian (long story). For the last few years, I've bought #Chanukkah #greeting #cards for my family and gone out of my way to get this relative a #card that is more appropriate for *her* #chag.

Last year, she complained that I got a card for the wrong #holiday, explaining that it was not yet Yom #Easter, but Yom #Christmas! Who can keep track with the weird solar #calendar they follow??

This may sound a bit breadhead but sometimes I wish Greek Orthodox had kept the Christmas date of Jan 7 instead of 25 Dec. Why? In Western countries, like Australia we would be able to go to all the special post 25 Dec Xmas sales! We could buy lots of gifts & stuff for half price! Alas, Greeks & now Ukrainians follow the West.

Yom #Epiphany is a traditional time for removal of the house decorations that #Christians like to use for the Christmas festival season, and you may notice discarded #Christmas conifers on the street shortly after.

‘Epiphany’ has different meanings in different #Christian minhags.

Most #Christians in #MedinatAmerica believe it commemorates the visit of the Three Sages to the infant prophet Yeshu.

Mizrachi Christians believe that ‘Epiphany’ commemorates the prophet Yeshu’s conversion to the #religion he founded, through immersion in a natural mikveh.

Mizrachi Christians, however, do not follow the Pope Gregory #calendar—their Yom #Epiphany is in 2 weeks. (Their Yom #Christmas is this Shabbat.)

#DearTeachers,

I can hardly believe I am writing to you again, but we are finally at the final holiday in the #Christian #Holiday #Season.

(No wonder Geveret Di Pasquale looks so tired— she must be exhausted from all the yom tov prep!)

This chag is the 12th day of the #Christmas season, best known as Yud Bet Christmas. #Christians often call it “Epiphany”. Some #Christian minhags state that Yom #Epiphany is the day after Yud Bet Christmas, thus Yud Bet Christmas may be Erev Epiphany.
