the thing about gawain and the green knight is it’s so literal. even if it doesn’t seem that way. a great example of this is when the giants appear— gawain is, literally, walking (unnoticed) among giants like he walks metaphorically unnoticed among giants in king arthur’s court. he asks the giants where they’re going and if he can get a ride on their shoulder and they leave him. he can’t be brought into legend on the backs of others. his uncle is king arthur and it doesn’t matter.

I went to Longwood Gardens to see their Christmas displays, and I may have spent a good chunk of my visit in front of this tree that they had decorated for wildlife. I saw 13 species of birds and a squirrel taking advantage of the food sources

Everyone’s going on about having a ‘traditional, old-fashioned Christmas’, but when I burst into the house covered in green paint and demand a champion strike my head from my shoulders with my own axe so that I may return the blow next year, I’m ‘scaring Grandma’.

forgot about the green knight and thought the grinch was just going wild

please keep in mind that my call to burn the churches and hang the priests should not be taken literally, as the War on Christmas is an inner struggle that symbolises the purification of the self.

There are even some sects that say the war on Christmas never referred to the conflicts associated with the birth of the sect.

“Christmas” refers to the human tendency towards gluttony and sloth that resides within us all, and the war upon it is our duty to lead a virtuous life.

the war against Love Actually however is deadly real
