I would absolutely watch an 8-hour Ken Burns documentary on potatoes
ken have i told u about the humble potato
I figure Ken Burns has one, maybe two big documentary series in him before he fully retires. What do you think they should be? My votes include Football, Hip-Hop, World War 1, Reconstruction (though Skip Gates did this one well), Iraq/Afghanistan, 19th Century Expansionism.

my problem with gyoza is that they normally come in an order of about 6, but what I really need is 100 of them

It's a problem when disabled people aren't given what they need to live, but the state finds it so easy to offer them death.
I will be the first to admit I couldn’t understand why anyone would oppose Assisted Dying… and then I became disabled and had it “offered” to me.

It’s not compassionate when there’s coercion.

It’s not dignified when it’s offered in lieu of care.

Listen to disabled people.

We’re not doing the traditional Thanksgiving dinner this year, but a tip for those who are:

Burrito-fy those leftovers! Put the turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and gravy on a tortilla and microwave that, then add cranberries and wrap up the burrito. Super tasty way to eat for the next week!

Asking for a Turkey Leg Emporium
There’s eleventy billion chicken joints, we can’t have one Turkey Leg Emporium?
Why are turkey legs only available at like county fairs and such? There should be a turkey leg restaurant chain.

You will not successfully fight DOGE if we don’t become pro DEI and pro Reconstruction and Reparations

We don’t need a trial we would need a full Truth and Reconciliation commission

And you know what? Even if I was NEVER able to work, why would that make it alright for society to shrug someone off? Why does someone have to be "useful" to be worthy?

Learn the eugenicist rhetoric you were taught and SQUASH IT. It's the only way to truly improve your emotional range.

My partner is THE BEST kind of people. One of the truly rare ones who genuinely & silently supports folks to give surprise help 'from nowhere'.

Help him get what he gives with a windfall that supports his offhand joke about our need (which I then put out to the universe by posting here)!

Ok palate cleanse time. In case you missed it, here's my most popular post ever
4 yrs ago today, a family member managed a truly spectacular own goal, splintered his domestic bliss, & in the process, united the world for a day.

On popular request, I shall now recreate the livetweet thread from that day

So gather around children, for this is the tale of The Rice Truck Saga

There’s this ad for a psoriasis med that says “Imagine being a million miles away” and like, that’s deep space, I’d be dead instantly. WHY DO YOU WANT ME DEAD, PSORIASIS MED?!

We think Ryan Lizza’s gonna offer any self-reflection on the fact that he himself is 19 years older than Nuzzi? And that maybe if the person you’re interested in has only dated people who are decades older than them, maybe you should recommend they get therapy instead of jumping into a relationship?

Idk, the paywall on that one seems to be a very helpful “TURN AWAY NOW” warning.
