Here's my #ChristmasTree for y'all! At the base, one of the Auxiliary Telescopes at ESO's Paranal Observatory. Above it, the Magellanic Clouds, two small galaxies orbiting our own. The tree-topper is 47 Tucanae, a globular cluster containing millions of #stars.
Half of our Christmas tree decoration are old wooden figurines my grandmother already decorated her trees with. She loved Christmas Eve. Who can blame her – it was her birthday. Good memories! But of course she used much more tinsel. 😉
Merry Christmas and happy holidays! I hope you've got a great time! 🎄
Every year we get a really #ChristmasTree. In January I cut off the branches and put them in the garden waste bin (which smells incredible until March when it is collected). The trunk is cut up and stored in the shed to dry. The following #ChristmasEve we burn it in the log burner. Here is the ‘22 tree 🎄 ready to go!
This weekend I read Volume 2 of One Operation Joker. Much like Volume 1, it continued with the parenting jokes. This time we brought in Harley Quinn a couple times to help the Joker get baby Batman into a good daycare facility. Also, Alfred Pennyworth showed up as said daycare facility happened to be owned by Wayne Enterprises.
It's such a goofy concept and it was able to keep the gag going through a second volume. I feel like this series maxing out at 3 volumes is probably for the best because I'm not sure how much more they can do with this same baby Batman gag.

That Charlie Brown #ChristmasTree caused it to get stuck! It must weigh like 4 pounds!
The post-apocalyptic world #ElonMusk imagines where you need bulletproof glass & metal panels to survive, isn't here yet. If it does, the Tech bros' aren't going to survive. No one will tow out the douches in their stuck Cybertrucks!
