@hdub23.bsky.social I would still love this btw and I'm not a bot I promise 😭😂

I think VS is much more satisfying overall and feels snappier but MB gets the pure dopamine rush exactly the same

I liked the zenith of the indie music Christmas LP roughly 10 years ago, I'll still reach for the Christmas unicorn now and again

Christmas music for me "lives" in the Glam and Wham eras outlined here, and any US stuff that isn't Mariah leaves me so cold. Absolutely can't stand the crooner style whether Bing or Bublé.

I don't think the parents actually consider the Grinch particularly hilarious either, in their heart of hearts. But its sticky, viral content. So the parents don't find it funny, it sacrifices their role as trusted caregivers, and it disturbs and upsets young children. But as content? Gold.

The worst thing to ever happen to children stuck in the awful morass of having content creator parents is when they all discovered that content of children screaming or crying with upset was much more viral than happy children. Role as trusted and predictable figures out the window for views.

Oh that movie has emer written all over it
