We’re well into the holiday season, and it’s already one of the weirdest we’ve ever experienced. If you don’t know why, consider yourself lucky. Instead of resisting the bizarre atmosphere we’re living through, I figured, why not lean into it and have some fun? Christmas has long been a secret haven of the strange, and I’ll share some of that here as we make our way to Dec. 25. Enjoy!
