   Christmas tree up? Stockings by the fire? Guys, it’s not even December yet! @thetyee’s Harrison Mooney has a theory on why this year, people seem “desperately festive.” It’s all about control. “If we can’t change the world, we change the world inside our homes,” he writes. “Christmas is perfect for that. Decoration and reorganization reduce stress. Same goes for sugary snacks, or a big glass of eggnog and rum. At Christmas, we look back on happier times and lean into long-held traditions. It’s a way to make the darkest days and darkest timeline bearable.”
