That festival, you know, three days after Solstice

As most of you know, I’m not a big fan of Christ­mas, mostly due to the massive assump­tions in this soci­ety that it is or should be uni­ver­sally cel­eb­rated. So, I’ve nat­ur­ally enjoyed this video that

posted. It’s Stephen Fry dis­cuss­ing the sim­il­ar­it­ies between Mith­ras and Jesus.

I’ve also very much enjoyed this hys­ter­ical medley of carols from Straight no Chaser that was linked through one of

‘s friends (

sol­cita

). You may have seen it since it’s appar­ently from last year.

And then, I sup­pose I have to sup­port local talent. This video, The 12 Poly Days of Christ­mas, was sung by friends of friends, filmed by 

subtle_eye

and egged on by

.

Merry Christ­mas to those friends of mine who cel­eb­rate it.
