April, apparently but I wasn't there. Our festivals were manipulated to fit pagan festivals. Winter solstice was a few days ago.

Well if you follow the church of Rome, it's today...

Julian Calendar: Created by Julius Caesar, it's slightly less accurate than the Gregorian, causing its dates to drift from the seasons over centuries.

Gregorian Calendar: Introduced by the Catholic Church in 1582 to correct the Julian calendar, it's the standard for most of the world today.

Basically Orthodox Christians celebrate on everyone else's Epiphany.

Merry Christmas from us!!!🎄🎄🎄

I run a lightning node but the best way is what I said

The Christmas Truce of 1914 was a spontaneous and unofficial ceasefire that took place during World War I, mainly along the Western Front in Belgium and northern France.

What happened,

Christmas Eve, December 24, 1914: As night fell, soldiers in opposing trenches—primarily British and German troops—began hearing each other singing Christmas carols, including “Silent Night” (“Stille Nacht”).

Soldiers cautiously called greetings across no man’s land, and some Germans placed candles and small Christmas trees on their trench parapets.

Gradually, unarmed soldiers left their trenches and met in no man’s land.

Activities during the truce

Exchanged gifts: food, cigarettes, chocolate, buttons, and souvenirs.

Buried the dead: joint burial services were held for fallen soldiers who had been lying between the lines.

Socialized: talked, shook hands, took photographs, and in some places reportedly played impromptu football (soccer) matches.

Fighting temporarily stopped in many sectors, lasting from a few hours to a couple of days.

Why it ended,

High command on both sides disapproved strongly, fearing it undermined discipline and the will to fight.

Orders were issued to resume hostilities, and artillery fire eventually restarted.

The truce was never officially sanctioned and became rarer in later years as the war grew more brutal.

Why it matters,

The Christmas Truce is remembered as a powerful moment of shared humanity in an otherwise devastating conflict. It showed that ordinary soldiers—despite propaganda and orders—still recognized their enemies as fellow human beings.

Merry Christmas you cigar smoking, coffee drinking rock star...

Obviously but as you posted it under my good wishes it sort of got detached from it's source. Much like it's aurhor

One can dream, it is Christmas but The Stormerführer hasn't got the bollocks. The Ukrainian rent boys took them... https://video.nostr.build/8c32c5c98baddcf1d828ce937073f2aa3333f11198a12c9d1fa83879404acb2e.webm
