Tonight Stekkjastaur, the first of Iceland's 13 Yule Lads, comes down from the mountains. He likes to sneak into the sheep shed to drink milk from the ewes.
All the children put a shoe in the window for him to put a treat or a little gift in – if they have been good! The bad children get a potato.

This is literally why they deposed Richard II. And Edward II. And
The President of the United States unilaterally levied a tax on all of us and is redistributing our taxes to a core segment of his supporters.
Trump: "I'm delighted to announce this afternoon that the US will be taking a small portion of the hundreds of billions of dollars we receive in tariffs ... and we're going to be giving and providing it to the farmers in economic assistance. We love our farmers. The farmers like me ... $12 billion"

Netflix owning Warner Bros sucks but Ellison owning it would suck more. It’s like dodging a headshot to take one in the chest instead.
