when you're looking at this time of year specifically through a christian lens and christian only lens, there are a lot more songs about bringing out the tragedy and sorrow - and in things like the coventry carol that are about herod's massacre of the innocents. there's more discussion of the grisly reality of saying "hooray, a kid was born! ....SO HE CAN GO DIE FOR ALL OF OUR SAKES, MISERABLE, IN PAIN, SLOWLY SUFFERING. yay."

tbh i think it's something to do, especially in a minor key and traditional tunes, about how why your typical medieval peasant was far more tuned in to christmas as a tragic event as well as a happy one - yeah, yay christ is born, but yay christ is born cos HE'S GONNA DIE AT THE END OF THIS

compare how cheerful the wexford carol is vs. how downright dirgelike coventry carol

it's time... for christmas. and by that i mean listening to all the #candlenights episodes of #mbmbam

i am.... not good at the little choir rhythm game but I AM AMUSED ANYWAY, and besides my catgirl looks really good and that's the true spirit of #ffxiv

someone is terribly offended that i am using her favourite blanket and fussed at me until i put it over her as she sat next to me #dogsofmastodon #pupper #dog #hollypls

i'm probably the first person in most of those hashtags but ohmygoddoitry.gif [ /he man ]

for all my other #spoonie people out there living that #sinusproblems life, i will pass along the tip from my mom's doc - you can mix double strength saline and use it in your #netipot and altho it's not as soothing, it will really help to dry things out so you can potentially avoid having to take a decongestant, which is nice, since the ones that work most effectively often cause anxiety/heart issues. but you still get to breathe, yay

maybe if i fill my neti pot with hot apple cider i can speed up the process of christmassing

i got that christmas spirit but i'm at like the point where you'd expect to be at like, around november 31st. heck

p.s. this is a joke but i am lowkey thinking of looking up technique tips so i can just shotgun the oil better lmao

so anyone want to teach me how to swallow? because now that i've got this cbd oil in dropper form to shotgun, i'm regretting not taking that Cocksucking 101 elective

how the fuck do people get up at 6am and just... do things... all damn day long. they are clearly some sort of mutant or aliens perhaps?????

i have... done things... and now i am Tired

who made this meme spoiling my star wars fanfiction

hallo fedineighbors, and thank you in advance -

so as a cishet woman with pcos i may occasionally wish to whine about shaving my face/talk about hair removing options with others

what's the best way to tag this as to not accidentally slam dunk people (especially transfeminine ones) into dysphorialand? i'm just unsure of what lingo i should be using here. ty

so much for the help! 🙇‍♀️

to actually make a proper post of it: one of the things you'll be hearing me blather about often is my au version of #darthvader from my #starwars fanfic that i am way, way, way too invested in. as the fanfic is called 'masquerade', you'll hear me talk about masquerade!vader a lot, because i'm enough of a fandom old to use that term!character format.

the actual fanfic itself is at https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5026493/1/Masquerade if you're bored/wish to torture yourself/etc.
