Happy New Year!
Because Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without Mrs. Baddeley’s famous plum pudding.
Sometimes the reason you write things is to inspire art that’s better.
Ah yes, tomorrow is the time to remove the mystery cubes from beneath the festive cone and tell tales of a large red intruder
Imagine yourself and your icon getting caught under a mistletoe. You stare at each other. Your icon reaches up, grabs the mistletoe, and eats it without breaking eye-contact.
"The Feast of Seven… Eight (and Nine)" by Vanessa Bishop, from 'Short Trips: A Christmas Treasure'
In which the Doctors have a Christmas party and Eight tries to kiss all his former selves.

Happy 52nd Anniversary Doctor Who!
"Conditions were severe for horses at the front; they were killed by artillery fire, suffered from skin disorders, and were injured by poison gas. Hundreds of thousands of horses died, and many more were treated at veterinary hospitals and sent back to the front. Procuring equine food was a major issue, and Germany lost many horses to starvation through lack of fodder. Several memorials have been erected to commemorate the horses that died."
Remember the soldiers that lost their lives, as well as all of the animals that served along side them.
THIS. I have spent all semester researching the use of animals in war and there are things you cannot even imagine. I cry on a daily basis reading accounts of animals in war.
In the real world, a soldier’s promise cannot bring back the dead.
The pioneers of a warless world are the youth that refuse military service. -Albert Einstein

"By the time Hallowe’en arrived, Harry was regretting his rash promise to go to the deathday party. The rest of the school was happily anticipating their Hallowe’en feast; the Great Hall had been decorated with the usual live bats, Rubeus Hagrid’s vast pumpkins had been carved into lanterns large enough for three men to sit in, and there were rumours that Albus Dumbledore had booked a troupe of dancing skeletons for the entertainment."
A thousand live bats fluttered from the walls and ceiling while a thousand more swooped over the tables in low black clouds, making the candles in the pumpkins stutter.
