Christmas Day Non-Rant

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas, Horde. For those of you who observe Hanukkah (which, in an unusual but not too rare congruence, also starts tonight), Happy Hanukkah. For those of you who are in interfaith households, both!

It has been a year of ups and downs, but I hope everyone reading today is having a nice holiday and is in the midst of joy. Please enjoy a Christmas open thread and some nice performances of Christmas music between, I hope, spending time with loved ones, cooking and eating, exchanging gifts and praising G-d as we end the year! I am as always both proud and constantly astonished to be a part of the community we have here at the HQ. For those who are checking in on this holiday, once again, Merry Christmas! For those catching up later, I hope you had a lovely holiday!

The Mormon Tabernacle Choir - Silent Night

The Royal Choral Society - Hallelujah (from Handel's Messiah)

Mariah Carey - Joy to the World
