A quotation from Franklin

In Christmas feasting pray take care;
Let not your table be a Snare;
But with the Poor God’s Bounty share.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) American statesman, scientist, philosopher, aphorist
Poor Richard Improved (1748 ed.)

S. P. Hoctor (me) will be releasing the third #novel in the Jack Dinero Chronicles series, #Christmas in #CreosoteCanyon , in time for #holiday season 2026! Our #ya #teen hero will be facing off against his most dastardly foe yet! When #copyright lawyers trademark #SantaClaus and #DMCA strike every #ChristmasCarol , Jack Dinero and his friends must engage in a battle of wits against the entire #tech #oligarchy to save Christmas! To celebrate, here is a small sample: https://thewanderingnerd.wordpress.com/2026/06/27/excerpt-from-book-3-christmas-in-creosote-canyon-the-christmas-dance/

St. #Philomena's Forane Church, popularly known as #Koonammavu Church is situated in Koonammavu, a northern suburban town of #Kochi City of #Kerala state, #India. This is one of the oldest #RomanCatholic churches in India, built in 1837 AD. Even though the church is dedicated to the Virgin Philomena, #SaintChavaraAchans feast is celebrated in every year as the annual festival, a nine-day festival lasting from 26 December to 3 January along with Holy #Christmas and the #NewYear.

"Glitter Bombs"
Teableau for 12/28/25

People have been asking if these are porcupines or hedgehogs. As the snouts are pointy, I'd say hedgehogs. Porcupine noses are more blunt and rounded.

I continued to post and boost festive things this week, particularly my daily holiday comic panels. I enjoyed bring those out and will probably make it a little tradition.

In What The–?! #10 from 1990, Lobdell and Byrne brought together Marvel’s greatest villain with Santa in the story “I’ll Be Doom For Christmas”. So today it’s time for two Marvel holiday panels.

We visited the Public Gardens today and encountered this brave squirrel.

Today’s Marvel holiday panel comes from Spider-Man Holiday Special 1995.

This mural by DCM Art Creations, titled “Ancestral Frequencies”, is a bright part of walking down Maitland Street.

His making of video gives a quick look at its creation.

Today’s Marvel holiday panel comes from Merry X-Men Holiday Special 2019.

We’re having a morning crossing the harbour and at the ferry terminal Celestine sat down at the piano. I noticed the theme to Howl’s Moving Castle was open.

I received a belated birthday present from my sister Ilea today and was delighted to get an Astro Boy shirt (I now happily have three), vegan nut butter cups, and a stack of vintage sci fi and fantasy. I guess those need to factor into my 2026 reading plans.

I remembered that Zombie Dice has an expansion with Santa, so I taught Celestine the game and we had a festive, brain-eating rolling session.

We met up with Celestine’s oldest friend and his mom at the oval for skating today. She’s learning fast.

Afterwards, the kids had a great time sliding around the skate park nearby.

It took some effort to capture the Astro Boy head on the shirt my sister gave me.

To frame #Grinch vs #Scrooge as a mere new-for-old replacement misses half the point of #AChristmasCarol: it’s not just a redemption story, but—like much of #Dickens’ work—also a critique of the class system.
