Grim out there, but on this Thanksgiving Day, grateful to all who care, who try to make things better, who persist in being decent in the face of ugliness.

turkey on a big platter, holding the carving fork in the same hand as one of the handles, so that the prong end of the fork jutted out in front of the tray, and as she walked past everyone to put the turkey on the table, she caught Granny Fudd's wig on the fork and carried it straight off her head.

Grandma knows what it means and feels liberated that she can finally talk about it
The chat around the Thanksgiving table is gonna be wild. “We have to explain felching to Grandma so she doesn’t say it in public to mean something it doesn’t.”

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

I'm sure a couple thousand people got a jawdropper of the mountains behind Downtown LA today but only about eight of us got a mediocre picture of the Hollywood Sign from 35 miles away on the ocean. Big public policy in action.

When Sheba, our prior dog, was at the end, we took our then-9 year old daughter to the vet. She loved Sheba and would sleep with her. We thought it was important for her to be with her beloved dog and to know what that meant.
the nice thing about living in a city is that if you need to get a vet out to euthanize your cat at ten PM on a Friday, you can

Community college has always been the much more sensible option for higher education but also it turns out you're *way* less likely to have a professor who was buddies with Epstein if you go to one.
Community college: odds are your professor is not in the Epstein files, unlike any of the Ivies
