@Lady but yeah it is kinda interesting how ‘we will have a big party of the first day of ____’ has shifted to ‘you must spend a month preparing for _____ before immediately moving on to the next thing’
@Satsuma i think people have gotten confused and mixed up harvesttide, where you celebrate earth's bounty, and hallowtide, where you watch everything die
the fact that americans celebrate thanksgiving during the latter doesn't help
@Satsuma i was going to make a joke about opening candy on halloween so that hallowmas can be reserved for prayer but everybody does that
