    Thanks, PZ! Nicely done.

    Rather than enter my own holiday good wishes, here are President Obama and Michelle Obama presenting a holiday version of the President’s weekly address. The sparring about winning and losing snowball fights is festive.

    There is some Jesus and God stuff, but you can substitute Cthulhu. Apparently the White House dogs try to eat Santa’s cookies, so that’s good.

    Not Muslim-ish at all, so I don’t know what rightwing pundits are going to do with it.

    For holiday music in my house I’ve got “The Epic” by Kamasi Washington playing. Joyful noise, but with some Cthulhu-esque chaos mixed in.

    Madness in a good way.

    Long time lurker, VERY rare commenter.

    But wanted to take a moment to thank PZ and the regulars (and irregulars) for copious amounts of entertainment and the best gift of all: knowledge!

    Your OPs and comments have educated me tremendously on social justice and other topics, and while that’s a journey that needs to continue, I’m a better person for all you efforts.

    Many thanks,
    Digital Canary

    Somebody over at Slacktivist was pointing out that “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear” sounds like the title of a Cthulhu song.

    At my house, the dog pooped all over the carpet just as we were getting ready to open presents, then the cat yakked all over some opened presents while we were eating breakfast. The person who did the least cleaning did the most swearing, just to add to the fun.

    Cthulhu can arrive any time it wants.

    Since it is the proper time of year, here is that seasonal classic, ‘We Wish you A Scary Cthulhumas’;

    We wish you a Scary Cthulhumas;
    We wish you a Scary Cthulhumas;
    We wish you a Scary Cthulhumas and a Squamous New Year.
    Dark tidings we bring to you and your kin;
    Dark tidings for Cthulhumas and a Squamous New Year.

    Oh, bring us a Squidy Overlord;
    Oh, bring us a Squidy Overlord;
    Oh, bring us a Squidy Overlord and may we be eaten first.
    We won’t go until He rises;
    We won’t go until He rises;
    We won’t go until He rises, so bring forth His rebirth.

    We wish you a Scary Cthulhumas;
    We wish you a Scary Cthulhumas;
    We wish you a Scary Cthulhumas and a Squamous New Year.

    Happy Squidmass, everyone, and spare a thought for the denizens of the SW coast of Victoria, Australia who have lost their houses to wildfire on the afternoon of the 25th.

    Wishing the Pharyngularians all the best for survival of the season, whatever form it takes where you are.
