- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

Pretty alright, except I managed to contract a mild flu.
The main event with Christmas dinner went well (It's on the 24th here in Norway), and as I'm the chef for such occasions I get to stay in the kitchen and watch youtube and the like, chilling with a few beers, while my GF does all the guest-stuff. (5 guests, 11 total people total).
Today is leftovers day, with a few hours until some of the people arrive, so now I'm chilling in the kitchen again.
I'm currently self medicating with a Laphroaigh Quarter Cask, and combined with a moderate dose of paracetamol it helps dulling the barbed wire in my throat.
My kids are satisfied and happy with their gifts, and that's all that matters in my book.
