As the days get darker and colder this time of year, people hunker down and prepare for their holiday festivities. One of the more common ways of getting in touch with friends and relatives are holiday cards either sending joy and good wishes, or news about what happened to their family that year. This is a family tradition for many, but where did

At first it was just "the people at that purple site" but now all of you are just "the purple people" lol. He also always botches the name. I think he secretly knows it's "Oh No They Didn't" and botches it deliberately!

Amazing, I love your art posts OP. It's hard to pick a favourite but there's something about the humans with rooster heads.

I think the dancing frog and beetle really sums up the spirit of the season though, in that it's a weird fucking time of year and you may not want to spend it with the beetles in your life but you'll do your best to dance with them instead of eating them at least for a couple of days.

love all the illustrations!

My family Christmas traditions are - my mom didn’t grow up celebrating Christmas so she goes all out although none of us children care since what happens at every Christmas dinner since I can remember is my dad getting upset at all of us how we don’t value him and how he’s a victim and blah blah

Oh and we exchange gifts at midnight from 24 to 25 although I mainly just ask for money lol
