Shoutout to Runescape's annual Christmas event they do each year. Remember the ones back inthe day and the OSRS version they do each year has been a staple of my life since getting back into it in 2018.
Time for a new question #SecretSantaAoNZ
What do you play on Christmas day? Cards? Monopoly? Croquet? Cricket? The Santa Hat movie game?

Boy am I glad the first replacements for these ferries will be arriving in Feb 2026, with port upgrades at Picton and Wellington nearing completion after two and a half years of work.
Oh wait, hold on a second, just hearing that ferries won't be here until 2029.

![Thalassotherapy (from the Greek word thalassa, meaning "sea") is the use of seawater as a form of therapy.[1] It also includes the systematic use of sea products and shore climate.[2] There is no scientific evidence that thalassotherapy is effective.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:olryof5j6k2o27bu7oeulady/bafkreie6ve6hvgtxaxbxxe6azwghide2gdyqigsr25wjslmcfhj3zdvrdi@jpeg)

![Sea-bathing
Beginning in the 1600s and 1700s, British physicians recommended sea-bathing to promote or restore health.[5][4] The 1750 essay by Richard Russell, A Dissertation on the Use of Seawater in the Diseases of the Glands, Particularly, the Scurvy, Jaundice, King’s Evil, Leprosy and the Glandular Consumption recommended bathing in the sea and drinking a pint of seawater daily; Russell claimed to have cured a leprosy patient with this treatment "every morning during nine months, without any intervals".[7]
According to Smithsonian sea-bathing was prescribed for people suffering from 'melancholy, rickets, leprosy, gout, impotence, tubercular infections, menstrual problems and “hysteria” '[4]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:olryof5j6k2o27bu7oeulady/bafkreiefw65i4vfrlyloy6ue54wdumaganvoh6xfukrnrryvubceysokte@jpeg)

Do people actually enjoy going on holiday to the beach?
Or is it one of those things where before the 1900s no one did this and then Ford made beach propaganda so BP could sell more petrol?

Last time this season I'll post this for #SecretSantaAoNZ Bluesky points. Whoever made this for me in 2020, you won Christmas. I don't make the rules. Congratulations! I literally cannot remember the present you gave me, but this card is my most cherished Christmas ornament I put out every year
So glad to see this return. Legit not much of a Christmas fan in general, but Twitter Secret Santa is PEAK!! Shoutout to the random who sent me what might be my favorite card I've ever gotten back in 2021!

This iconic Fabian Todorovic cartoon is still one of the best I’ve seen at illustrating the remarkable amount of space we surrender to cars, leaving little space left for everyone and everything else. The text added later makes the bonus point that many drivers still manage to complain about it.

I am reminded today while organizing my December that despite how much I LOVE #SecretSantaAoNZ. I actually generally HATE Christmas and all its consumerist bullshit that you are culturally honor-bound to participate in, while being in New Zealand's Melanoma skin cancer enabling pissing summer heat

At some-point, I should try to learn 3D printing and get this insert made for a Yugioh tin. The tins look so good as a deck-box!
