A 23 January 2026 tweet from the White House, with a fake “photo” of Trump and a penguin holding a US flag walking towards a Greenland flag. The text of the tweet says simply “Embrace the penguin”.

I spent all of December warning people about the #PenguinNorthPoleInvasion. I pointed out they don’t belong in the Arctic and they must be up to no good. I even used the Greenland flag in some posts. Did anyone listen? No! Penguins were in all kinds of decorations this Christmas!

Still thinking of Pingu, who is still upset he wasn’t allowed to travel to the North Pole to meet Santa last month.

A Christmas tree with an ornament of a polar bear with a large wool scarf and skiing equipment.

Now is a good time to stock up on Christmas ornaments for next year.

Christmas wrapping paper rolls, one blue with a polar bear wearing a scarf, another red with a penguin. The polar bear appears to be smiling at the penguin.

This gift wrap paper is a lie! In reality, the heroic polar bear here would eat that invasive penguin — if a penguin somehow managed to swim up to the Arctic Ocean from Antarctica.

An unopened “Polar Beap Present Dash” box which shows Christmas Crackers with polar bear drawings. But strangely, there is a cartoon of a penguin ice skating near the bottom, beside a larger cartoon of a polar bear lifting a golden “1” trophy.

This festive polar bear-themed game came so close to holiday perfection, but ruined it all by including a tiny image of a penguin.

A display of Plushies in a store, with polar bears beside penguins.

Do you know where penguins and polar bears hang out together as plushie friends? No where!

Penguins do not naturally live in the Arctic, and if they did, hungry polar bears would eat them.

Polar bears are Santa’s security.

I am sadden to deliver the terrible news that penguins have now appeared in this year’s #JacquieLawson Advent Calendar. A polar bear would have made more sense.

Some people are trying to facilitate a reconciliation between squirrels and penguins at Christmas, but this can only happen when penguins return to the southern hemisphere.

Penguins & squirrels eons ago agreed squirrels would not invade Antarctica and penguins would leave the Arctic alone. Polar bears agreed to eat any penguins foolish enough to cheat. Squirrels also agreed not to expand our bridgehead in Australia. Say no to invasive species! #PenguinNorthPoleInvasion

What treachery is this? Don’t let their cuteness fool you! South Africa’s penguins have earned a spot in their holiday celebrations, but if you’re in the northern hemisphere, there’s a pressing need to keep invasive species under control.

A store display of small plastic wind-up Christmas toys. On the left is a small Santa toy and on the right is a small penguin toy wearing a winter scarf and a Santa hat.

It’s Black Friday, and the penguin invasion of the North Pole and Christmas is now being openly supported by retailers. So disappointing.

Hand-made Nepali woolen penguin Christmas decorations? Have artisans near Everest — the Third Pole — really sided with penguins against Santa? I am sure there was some coercion involved.

A gift wrapped in penguin-themed paper.

If you see a gift under your Yule Tree wrapped in penguin-themed Christmas wrapping paper, throw it out. It’s probably booby-trapped — the real Santa would never wrap a gift like that.
