I have played a fucking alarming amount of Disney Dreamlight Valley since installing it about 7 days ago. Alarming amount as in, have completed literally every single quest except Stitch's (he is hard gated beyond IRL days played). It is pretty addicting, and scratches the Animal Crossing itch super well.
While waiting for more content to drop in there, I'll get through some other backlog games. Currently as I type this playing "There is a Genie in my Szechuan Sauce Remastered", which is a goofy-ass sketch video with like 5 choices to make that I'll platinum in 20 minutes. 
Also really need to play more Pokémon Violet, I've only beaten the first 2 gyms. The deceptive nature of the leveled "open world" really turned me off, having to look up maps online of where it actually wanted me to go.
We started a Christmas tradition a few years ago - we bring 'presents' to the local animal shelter. 
Dogs get treats, toys, bones. Try to take them all for a walk so they can get outside for a little bit. >

Lights up ✔️  Shopping done ✔️ Tree decorated ✔️  
Merry Christmas. >

Home Alone is the best Christmas movie.
The only acceptable counterargument is Home Alone 2. >

Mr. Robot Season #4 >

The sunflowers I didn't even plant are now 5'6" tall and are sporting yellow flowers, despite a straight week of freezing mornings. I have wrapped a Build-Yer-Own Skateboard kit for one of my nephews, and have also included wrist guards in case his dad raises an eyebrow. Soon I will get some applewood chips rolling in the smoker so I can start prepping an elk roast and some duck wings/legs/hearts for tomorrow's supper.
So many folk on the horizon... my wife and I each have five siblings, and they have 10 children between them, one of which has three of her own. I think I've spent more on gifts than on rent this month, and I hope to retain my Best Uncle Ever title for the 22nd straight year.
Happy whatever you celebrate, mes amis. I hope it's lovely. >

An ELK roast? That's another thing I need to add to my "meat I need to try" pile along with goose and gator. >

I shoot one elk a year up in Oregon. I hunt duck for 100 days in the winter, I take one hog, I take two or three turkeys, I fish as many salmon and halibut as I can in their seasons. Sometimes I buy chicken just for a change of pace, but it's genuinely been about four years since I had to support what I consider to be a largely inhumane and unclean meat industry.
I'm so happy I'm able to do it this way. >

Nightmare Before Christmas gets my vote. >

Being seriously old, I think the '47 version of Miracle on 34th Street is #1 and really miss Amahl and the Night Visitors. then there was a 1-off with Art Carney as a bum who gets to be Santa for one nite, but does such a good job, he's given the permanent position - probably from the early 50's - Just did a search, and this was probably on The Twilight Zone! >

It was a Twilight Zone episode and I think Natalie Wood was the little girl in the '47 Miracle on 34th Street.
