If anyone here has young kids that want to send mail to Santa if you send it to the following address Canada Post will send a response back

SANTA CLAUS
NORTH POLE H0H 0H0
CANADA

The UK has a similar program if you send mail here:

Father Christmas
Santa's Grotto
Reindeerland
XM4 5HQ

I know the Canadian one will do international post, not sure about Royal Mail

@er1n Evidently the British Isles are the only ones who care about freedom

Do the others have references to "wombling free" in their national anthems?

I think not.

@kibi I'm pretty sure they just smushed a load of buzzwords together there

@tenthstar I dunno, doesn't seem like that bad a plan to me

@Gargron Unlikely, I don't understand what the hell you humans are on about half the time, beings from other planets have even less chance

@Vann@glitch.social I... The second amendment gives them money?

It's a bit of writing on some paper, how did it sign a sponsorship deal?

And who gave it the money?

@squirrel he's saying you're "rude and unnecessarily jerkish" for those messages and toots?

Wow, what a prick

@squirrel none of us expect you to be able to see all the things happening all the time, feel free to block anyone you want and we'll give you a heads up if any of us see anything untoward, this is meant to be a nice cosy place for you as well after all

@squirrel aww... cat!

@HTHR@cybre.space as is "PUNY MORTALS"

@KitRedgrave@glitch.social you can make a simple one out of a couple of 555 timer chips some resistors and a few capacitors

More complex things'll up the component count but it's completely doable

If you're stuck on what to give someone for Christmas, a collection of @squirrel's albums purchased via bandcamp would make a fantastic gift!

@squirrel I can only think that album title is so the following happens:

"What album is that?"
"I have no idea"
"But you're always listening to that"
"I have no idea"
"Come on, you downloaded it"
"GODDAMNIT I HAVE NO IDEA"

@squirrel As for other ones, I have no idea...

@squirrel Space Adventures of General Mibi, Splinter Zone, and uh... Quantum Supermarket

@tom Zuckerberg, Musk is very obviously a Special Circumstances agent

@envgen I'd say people would be more likely to line the motorcade route holding bricks than american flags

They'd be real bricks though
