Unfortunately the most wonderful time of the year has come to a close and I must begin my annual transformation into An Grinch
Christmas sucks ass and it starts too early, there's an entire harvest festival still to happen
@witchfynder_finder okay but seriously the american harvest festival happens way too late
this is not a toot in favour of starting christmas before december 25
@witchfynder_finder see, back in the day the festivals happened at the STARTS of the seasons not the ENDS
the way i say it should go is harvest up until halloween, and then all of NOVEMBER is spooky season
@Lady Okay NOW you're talkin
@witchfynder_finder i mean it’s literally Hallowmas today; in the UK Hallowtide lasts at least until Remembrance Sunday (when they wear the Poppies; 14 Nov this year) and i don’t see why we shouldn’t just make it the whole month (until Advent at least)
@witchfynder_finder the problem is that businesses sell goods for the holiday which is coming up, not the holiday you’re currently in, and america determines what season it is based on what you can buy in the stores
@witchfynder_finder also i’m normally okay with secularizing Church holidays but yeah christmas sucks ass it’s like easter, get out of town
just celebrate the solstice or whatever
@Lady That's true, but if we had it sooner it would crowd Halloween
