I was going to suggest that you try and make the day represent something else.
But you have already done that.
Happy Oscar Day!!!

You old f–k! You seem to understand what I am doing best. One cannot ignore Christmas if one steps outside, has a TV, internet or any other outside source. It’s almost unavoidable no matter one’s religion or anything else, at least in the USA. What I CAN do is reinvent it to “Oscar Day” when a Dachshund stopped me from making the final solution. I have a 6ft tree with lights and ornaments but screw that, it’s only pain and I wish to sell, donate or destroy it. The small tree has lights installed but will not be lit because NFG to a traditional Christmas. Yet what is better to give a dog than a tree to p~~~ on in a warm house in late December? I have already bought gifts for Oscar (FAR cheaper than what a simp will spend on a woman on Christmas) that will not be wrapped because he doesn’t care. Oscar saved my life last year and he is just as important this year for perhaps the same reason. I am preparing for another wave of darkness but at least this time, I can somewhat prepare. To say I can hope to survive as long as Oscar is around is far better than preparing to die after Christmas last year.

Lately I usually spend Christmas at work, kicking back and watching movies on my laptop while collecting time and a half. I love Christmas.

I wish I could do that but have no choice. I have to face nearly four weeks of temporary unemployment. Since we have a union, I could make double time if I could work on Christmas.

No one will be more thankful and appreciative for gifts than your dog. lol

Just walking my little buddy is more exiting than Christmas for a child but every day. No human can compete with the affection of a good dog, humans lose that competition every time. If women were half as faithful as a dog, there would be no need for MGTOW.

Continue to celebrate Oscar and enjoy Christmas through him. A thought, your Ex may have decided to use Christmas as a way to constantly remind you of her leaving. A way to deny her this legacy would be to find some joy in Christmas and not allow the holiday to remind you of her. Just a thought.
Hang in there and know that Zoom sessions will be running over the Holidays.

You and Old Sage get my point best. My response to Old Sage applies to you as well.

I have almost driven off a cliff in Cherokee National Park. But, only because I was not paying attention.

Then you know what I planned. I didn’t need to hit the accelerator, just put it in neutral at Hooper’s Bald or Unicoi Crest and let gravity do it’s job. Do this around 3:00AM and no one else would be hurt. Some say that those who commit suicide are “Cowards” but I dis. While I own a gun or two, at least I didn’t want to take anyone with me or be a statistic for the gun grabbers. Death is a very permanent thing and when one makes plans to do it, one must be sure of the statement left behind. Suicide is the easy way out but it requires more guts than most people have.

Sparky – Zoom May well be running so you won’t be on your own. You will have us.
Once my kids are asleep Christmas night I’ll be jumping on Zoom if it’s running.
We can share a Christmas drink together.

I’m not sure when but I will be there. I may well need Zoom that day and the three days after. I have not had strong drink since a year before but don’t know what will happen, I might booze it up. I may be fine but I may relapse into darkness and I don’t need liquor to go there. I will be facing the darkest anniversary but more. My last two relapses were from my past but had less to do with my wife. My wall is building and it is getting stronger. I don’t know if this is good or bad but I am changing, that much I know. I think I can survive.

When I hit my early 20’s the real red pill about society hit me. I saw these so called “holidays” for what they were. Corporate spending days. Mindless consumerism. Buying stuff for people they don’t want and will take back, or getting something YOU don’t want and end up taking back. Most of the time, people spend their days racing around like a rat in a maze spending money on empty gesture stuff. The whole thing to me is pointless. Crowded roads, crowded malls… Christmas, Easter, Valentine’s day, president’s day, New Years… All these so called “holidays”…. I just decided one day not to partake anymore. If someone wants to do it, that’s their choice. I just see no point in it.

I mostly agree. But I still give some days a pass.

I like Christmas, as I get time off work, which I spend with my parents. I am not bothered about the Blue Pill aspects of Christmas; I just classify it as time off work. We set a strict per-person budget for Christmas presents, so not much cost is incurred; Christmas presents are more of a token, than an extravaganza of spending. I don’t get caught-up in the over-commercialisation of Christmas, since that is not what Christmas is about.

I LOVE this time of year. The Days are nice and short and the Nights are long. If we get a nice blanket of snow even better. I would like to see at least a couple feet of snow for Christmas. Actually, f~~~ Christmas I’m celebrating Yule Tide this year. I might have to roast me up a Yule Boar on the open fire.

Perhaps I should do just that, he earned it when one thinks what life is worth.
