Among the joys of being #Jewish is that in some years, like #2024, you get to say,
The #holidays are late this year!
Leaving everyone else scratching their heads and reaching for their #calendars.

OK, so I couldn't resist it. An RO Holidays fanart. xD Featuring my iRO characters, 'Un' the Summoner and Thomas Benedicta the Archbishop... and their pets! Un has a little piglet in her pouch, while Thomas has a little ghost by his side.
Complementing BGM:
[SoundTeMP – "Theme of Lutie/Snow in My Heart"] (Ragnarok Online BGM, 2002)
Meanwhile, some people over here tried to ruin the celebration times with their bad vibes and anti-Christmas sentiments... such party poopers.

Happy holidays, everybody. 🎄 May y'all be able to spend it with people who are precious to you.

I wanted to draw something for the winter as I usually would, but I had no idea of what and who to draw. My pal, @/TheSalguod on dA gave me an idea, so here it is. I forgot to add Vic's dark circles under his eyesssss aaaaaaaaa (will edit the dA version only later on)
While everyone gets cosy and comfy in their homes or being with close friends and families, our lone ranger Vic travels from the Northern District back to the Capital District during this time off. He's got no friends up north or whatever anyway (and Aaron doesn't count as one). Once in the Capital, he gets a call from Tsumura to hang out; maybe grab a drink at Crimson Angel Restaurant. Vic was about to decline because he'd prefer to be on his own, but then he realised it's the holidays, man. And so here they are, having hot chocolate and taking a break from life.
Vic thinks to himself that maybe he does have a friend, after all. And sure, it snows almost every day in Sigma, but sometimes even the most mundane of things feel better when enjoyed with good company.

WEEKLY #ASTROLOGY FORECAST | #DECEMBER 25TH TO DECEMBER 31ST, 2023 - AN OTHER-WORLDLY WEEK AHEAD WITH EXTRA DOSES OF COMPASSION, NOSTALGIA AND LOVE, AND, WELL, IT WOULDN'T BE THE #HOLIDAYS WITHOUT SOME ARGUING, TOO, WOULD IT? MERRY CHRISTMAS!

..."The Venus/Neptune will color the holiday week with compassion, nostalgia, LOVE. Having this aspect on Christmas is a true blessing. Things are slightly unfocused, giving everything a magical/mystical view. Boundaries dissolve. Forgive. Connect. Carry tissues.
OUR CONTENTMENT AND JOY INCREASES WHEN WE LET GO (Pisces) OF WHAT WE HAVE BEEN FIXATED ON (Scorpio).
With Mars trining the North Node at the same time, there is an opportunity here to take action toward what we want. To be more self-sustaining. Independent. True to ourselves. NEW.
...
With the Sun trining Jupiter - one of the best aspects in astrology and an Earth trine to boot, we will talk more about this in the Full Moon post next! - and coming off the Full Moon in the Moon's own sign - the ENERGY THIS WEEK IS HUGE. And moving in many directions at once. Doors open. The king and the king of the Gods are working together. Karmic knots are untangling and chickens are coming home to roost.
...
This is the last year in our lifetime where we will end the year with Pluto in Capricorn, where he has been since 2008. A way of life is ending. LONG cycles are closing out. Cappy energy has alot to do with keeping safe by acquiring/by having one voice (or following one voice). Aquarius is about finding ways - and, this is going to have ALOT to do with TECH - for all of us to have our own unique voices. The last time Pluto was in Aquarius we had the American and French revolutions.
What kind of revolution will the next 20 years bring?"...
#Transportation Sec. Pete #Buttigieg on What Passengers Need to Know Before #Traveling for the #Holidays This Year
"If you do need our help, we are here to have your back," Sec. Buttigieg said.
By Michael Cappetta Published on December 15, 2023
..."“For those who are planning to fly. I want to emphasize that in the last two years, we've dramatically expanded passenger protections,” U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg recently shared in a one-on-one interview with Travel + Leisure. "If you do have a problem after the fact you can use that website to reach out to us with a complaint. We hope it doesn't come to that but we have helped passengers get $2 billion in refunds and counting. So if you do need our help, we are here to have your back."
As over 131 million Americans are expected to fly this holiday season — with the busiest travel days being between Dec. 21 and Dec. 23. — the Department of Transportation is asking Americans to be prepared for the surge and take extra precautions such as planning extra time and being extra vigilant on roadways which are expected to be packed.
“Remember that the most important thing isn't to get there first, it's to get there safely,” Sec. Buttigieg said, who also spoke with T+L regarding the announcement of the high-speed train project that will connect Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
Sec. Buttigieg encourages travelers who find themselves in need of assistance to visit FlightRights.gov, which is complete with a dashboard guide displaying each airline's policies including delay and cancellation policies, as well as family seating."...
I think I’m done decorating…
Now I can just sit back and light it up. So nice on a gray, rainy, gloomy day.
