    As long as the Claus regime and its fundamentalist base remains steadfast in its mission of Christmas creep expansionism, Halloween is all that’s left between us and Christmas lights going up in July.

    For generations, Halloween has held the borders of Autumn established long ago in the Skellington Accords. Resolutely. Without complaint. It naturally can’t even creep father forward than Lughnasadh on August 6 due to the wobble of the Earth herself, and makes no designs to even take more than a week of August. IF you feel like it.

    Meanwhile, the lands of Thanksgiving are bare, stripped to the roots to feed Claus and his elves. Christmas holds nearly every inch of Thanksgiving territory, save only a small administrative territory near the capital. They laughably claim autonomy still. Thanksgiving is little more than a province of Christmas now. A weak and middling fiefdom that serves no master other than Claus.

    Fight the Claus. Fight Christmas. Saturnalia io!

    Happy Halloween! Happy Samhain! Spooky season arise!

      I think I’m invited to someone’s Christmas in July party at least once a year at this point. I had a Christmas in July party in '22. The Claus regime got me with their propaganda 😭
