I want y’all to hear my opinions on the fuckin grinch right now.
it’s a terrible fuckin movie and it deserves to be jailed. All versions of it are bad and it’s so overplayed. There are much better Christmas movies out there but for some reason, the worst one out there is considered the best.

Christmas is difficult in a way few cis people can understand.
I grew up Catholic, which meant big family gatherings, knick-knack nativity scenes, and midnight mass. Every year my immediate family would huddle in the family entertainment center to watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (hated it), and Home Alone (love it).
Seeing the extended family was a mixed bag. Some made snide comments about how "anti-social" I was as a kid (overstimulated and autistic) but it meant the world to see my little cousins. I held them as infants when I couldn't have been more than 10, and watched them grow up as I babysat them since they were in diapers.
I looked forward to Christmas the way any middle class white kid does - I usually got one big gift and a heap of smaller ones. Christmas meant lots of candy, and maybe a Gameboy. It meant my dad's signature whipped potatoes and honey smoked ham. It meant seeing Macaulay Culkin outsmart adults in the funniest ways possible. It meant bearing church service so I could hear "Come, All Ye Faithful" and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" from the choir. It meant enduring cutting comments from my aunt about "always needing to be on a screen" to watch Jim Carrey's the Grinch with her tiny daughters.
To make a long story short, when I was 18, I came out as a trans man. I could only endure one family Christmas while trying to softlaunch my gender to my family. I took my blue hair and pronouns, and snuck out only a few hours later with a stolen bottle of wine to bring home to my other trans friends and roommates.
One aunt had compared me coming out as a man, but dressing feminine, to her belief that her ex-husband would fake his disability to seem worse than it was out of convenience (her eldest son would later develop that same illness she accused his father of exaggerating). When she saw this comparison didn't quite land, she assured me that being trans isn't something this generation would get, but there was always the next generation. I didn't feel like I had time to wait for that acceptance. I ended up in the hospital for suicidal ideation the next year.
I haven't been back to a family Christmas since. It's been ten years. My mother has asked me almost every year to come back, assuring me my family would be happy to have me - ignoring that her husband had kicked me out of the house out of anger about my queerness, and general abusive tendencies.
Last year, I tried. My little cousins have grown up enough that I spent the year reaching out and building bridges with them now that they're old enough to have cell phones and be out without parental supervision. The oldest of my little cousins, who's in college now, invited me to Christmas dinner, and I thought I could handle it.
I had top surgery, some bottom surgery, been on T long enough my voice had dropped. If my family misgendered me, it wouldn't hurt as much as it had a decade prior, when I was less sure of who I was.
Her mother found out about a week before the 25th, and let me know only two hours before dinner that I was not welcome in her house.
I have spent every Christmas since 2015 at a friend's house. Their families love me. They get my pronouns right. They offer me vegetarian spreads, and presents, and a warm bed for the night. I am so grateful. It is not the same. It does not fill the hole in my heart to feel like an orphan adopted for one night in a family that is not my own.
I hate this time of year. I resist celebrating it annually, trying to create my own traditions, and survive the winter. I still watch Home Alone every December. I still tear up when I hear "O Holy Night". I don't think cis people understand what I mean when I say "I hate Christmas".

It's Christmas Eve, which means it's time for Martha May Whovier and Mr. Grinch Whovier to decorate the Christmas Even tree. (do you really think Martha has just one tree for the whole holiday season?) If you celebrate, have a great Christmas, and if that's not possible then I want every other day to outshine it.

“I found the Grinch to be a relatable, engaging character. And I was really with him right up to the point that he succumbed to social convention and returned the presents and saved Christmas. What a buzzkill that was.”

How'll The Grinch Steal Christmas
Tumblr media
For my Christmas drawing, I decided to draw out one of my all-time favorite Xmas stories: "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" I always watch the classic animated special made by Chuck Jones every month of December, I feel like it isn't Christmas without getting my Grinch fix.
I've noticed that the already iconic Xmas icon has received a significant amount of more attention this year. With a Walmart commercial promoting some Grinch merchandise, a video game, and even a new sequel book to the original story. I feel like these are all just ways to milk the property for their respective companies, which ironically enough goes against the whole moral of the story!
But nonetheless, it's giving the loveable rotten grump some recognition. And the one positive outcome of it all is having people(like myself) come back to the original classic story, and the Chuck Jones animated short.
Update: I have a post discussing my thoughts on the recent Grinch Walmart commercial for anyone interested: My Thoughts on the Grinch Walmart Commercial by TheJollyOrangeArtist on DeviantArt
