@cheryanne@aus.socialFriend and I watched all 3 *Knives Out* movies today. We ate kransky on rolls with salad and chili jam, drank 2 bottles of wine, and also ate a coffee gelato waffle cone each. Not the healthiest of days perhaps but it was definitely a lot of fun!

@samvarma@fosstodon.orgYou gotta have a lot of balls to enjoy Christmas.
Hope everyone had/is having a wonderful break out there!

@cheryanne@aus.socialBeen awake since 4:20 am - still in bed though. Don't plan to leave my warm comfy nest until at least 8 am. 😁

@paulbusch@mstdn.caGood Morning #Canada
Happy #BoxingDay to all Canadians, and good luck to the estimated 8.6M Canucks who will wade into this significant sales day looking for bargains. December 26th was traditionally a day when the nobility gave gifts and leftovers to their servants and staff. The practice was famously put to song when the Duke of Bohemia, patron saint of the Czech Republic, and inspiration for the Christmas carol "Good King Wenceslas," was known for feeding the poor after Christmas. His charitable nature didn't prevent his murder by his brother. Today it's known as a major shopping day, although less important than 10 years ago. Check out the attached article for a really boring look at recent retail Boxing Day trends. Summary: Boxing Day is more like a Week and shoppers are less impulsive and more focused on specific purchases that they delayed.
