Seasons greetings, reader! It’s time to hang your stocking by the crackling fireplace and post your handwritten letters to Santa on the chimney. If you don’t have stockings, firewood, or a pen, rest easy. I had a word with Santa’s elves, and they say it’s okay to hang a garbage bag at your George Foreman grill or local equivalent, and comment on the RPS article instead. So you want it for Wintermas? More garbage bags? A new George Foreman grill? Regardless, Santa will deliver. If he doesn’t, I’ll eat him to the maw.

Friends, RPS is officially done for the year. We have some things on hiatus, including the rest of the entry calendars, our annual selection boxes and a syndication of features from Sean, but that’s all for Mawposts and newsletters until 2025.
Between the layoffs and the ZD acquisition tensions, it’s been a tough year, but a fun one for all of you to write about. Someone recently observed in the shadowy corners of social media that RPS comment threads are the most hallowed places on the internet, and I wholeheartedly agree. I wish you all the best for the rest of December.
