they're trying to joke about it, but the "we are victims of persecution" bullshit from the christofascist right never fails to bubble up somewhere every fucking year

One radio station went all Christmas in like mid October. I think the station owners said "fuck it we're going on vacation for the rest of the year" but yeah waaay too soon. Let me enjoy fall, even the gloomy grey part.

Well somebody's gotta be on the side of against Christmas for it to make any sense, might as well be me.

I'd totally play that. Get your bullshit out of November you capitalist ghouls. October & November are allied under the Halloween banner to wage this war and I'll be damned if I back down.

Literally. My fiancee isn't allowed to put up the damned tree until December.
