John Lewis are selling foot-tall hollow chocolate squirrels

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

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!

Hey @squirrel, just wondering, are hours longer where you live?

'cause "squirrel-chan's fuck up hour" seems like a consistently inaccurate title 😛

🎶 On the first day of Christmas Rob Mueller gave to me
🎶 A Mike Flynn guilty plea

Aldi are currently selling jeroboams of prosecco

I kinda want a fuck-off huge bottle of wine but I'd be the only bugger drinking it and as strong as my constitution is I'm not sure it can gracefully handle 3 litres of wine in one sitting
