Well, guess time to unwind with the latest Saturday Night Live episode. Maybe that'll get me out of coding space. I just need to get in that vacation Christmas Holiday space spirit somehow.
Good Yule to my #Pagan brothers and sisters! May gods keep you from evil and dangers and lead you to the best probability of the future. #Yule #Solstice
Same to you as well, may your #Yule be blessed, peaceful and joyous. It's gonna be a busy one here, with a morning service (the one I play on #SleighRide for) and an evening service for which I'm playing #HandChimes.

But is it actually "terrifying," or just a lost art of Sysadmining?
