Just got in from a 12-hour shift at work and 'It's a Wonderful Life' is on.
Even though I've missed half of it, I'll still watch the rest. It's not Christmas without this beautiful film.
#ItsAWonderfulLife

Updating a Christmas classic to be a bit more contemporary:

The 12 Plagues of Christmas

12 hours of fever
11 influenzas
10 loose stools
9 bouts of vomit
8 runny noses
7 ear infections
6 stomach aches
5 covid strains
4 wet coughs
3 sore throats
2 chapped lips
And a cold from the office party

"Anyway, my father didn't think so. People were human beings to him. But to you, a warped, frustrated old man, they're cattle. Well in my book, my father died a much richer man than you'll ever be!"

Show thread

@cobalt
I don't actually watch the show; it's been on/off occasional, so I'm glad you're keeping track of the numbers.

@beastoftraal
And to think the Indians I've talked to all claim that there's no longer a caste system in India.
Judging from humanity at large, religiously ingrained bigotry doesn't die.
