Happy Winter Solstice, you nerds, unless you are on the other side of the equator from me, in which case, happy Summer Solstice, you nerds

Some people live PRECISELY ON THE EQUATOR, check your hemisphere-having privilege you monster.

No seriously cheers from Australia.

@johnefrancis @scalzi why isn't there an event where people jump over the equator at precisely the right time to experience both?
Show threadOggieDec 21, 2023

@scalzi You too!

I've also enjoyed your film recommendations listing you've been doing, so thanks for that (haven't agreed with all of them, but...they're your comfort watches, so it would be kinda weird if I did?).

Hope you are having a nice holiday!

@scalzi It's, erm, tomorrow. I mean, in about 6 hours from now. So perhaps today, depending on your time zone.

@scalzi dammit, Scalzi, I came here to post that exact sentiment.

Yes, happy solstice all.

@scalzi A happy Peak Seasonal Affective Disorder Day to you, as well!

@scalzi fun fact I learned when looking for inclusive language on the solstices: this is also known as the "Southern Solstice" with the one on June being the Northern.

Yes, I recognize that even having this information makes me a giant nerd.

Four seasons in one day is NZ answer to it. Especially when you do your washing.

@scalzi they say it’s the shortest day of the year, but it’s 5pm, and it’s still Thursday. What gives?
Show threadSoh Kam YungDec 21, 2023
@scalzi Or, you are practically on the Equator (Singapore), so this nerd can just say Happy Solstice. 🙂
