2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

The fact that we aren't allowed to celebrate it in my country. It's seen as unimportant. In fact, we don't ever have Christmas breaks. I saw school buses packed with students heading to class today (and yesterday too), some are even taking exams. Radio stations play absolutely no Christmas music. Nothing in the country is decorated for Christmas. Life goes on as usual as if Christmas doesn't exist.

This video by Gari Sullivan perfectly explains how life is for us. Yes, it's 2 years old already, but I doubt that it's that irrelevant.

I had a pretty good holiday, although, I found out that my little friend group at school are really conservative Christians and apparently they still support Trump.
