Everybody loves the guest who does the dishes, this is universal
At the in-laws, where there’s always too many cooks in the kitchen but only one dishwasher (me - and that’s why I’m the MIL’s favorite).

“The entire purpose of science is to search for existential truths,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told me. “It’s not subjective. It should be objective. I believe science is a place where you can find unity if you can get a conversation going.” www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

yeah Thanksgiving Disasters is my favorite of the holiday episodes, both because it is also the inadvertent beginning of the Neil Armstrong subplot and also I don’t spend 10 minutes screaming at the other three about the meaning of Christmas in this one
my absolutely goddamn favorite and I listen to it every Thanksgiving and there’s so much good in it that has nothing to do with Thanksgiving

This was 2019 somehow. Maybe it's time for Thanksgiving Disasters 2?
I recommend the @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social Thanksgiving Disaster episode.

Georgia needs a leader who will be honest about who is the cause of the challenges we face and who can mobilize a movement to deliver results.
Thanks to @rpaynereport.bsky.social at Salon for highlighting why this race matters and why change is overdue.

Genuinely it rocks that a bunch of dudes whose sole media diet is action thrillers and who have never read an academic nonfiction book have convinced the investor class to bet the entire U.S. economy on a gamble that relies on an untested technology raising productivity more than electricity did

What do you mean “otherwise”
there’s an old la-z-boy recliner on the sidewalk with a sign that says “FREE - FULL OF SPIDERS” - appears to be in good condition otherwise
