Tired: The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is a long consumerist advertisement for a corporation-based American hegemony that peaked before the forever wars.

This. This. This. This.

Lost my dad at 7 and I spent YEARS wishing he was still around just so he could be proud of who I became. My kids have their share of doing dumb things but I always make a point to tell them how proud of them I am when they do something great.
Uncle Muggsy gave me a hug and told me how proud he was for helping out at home and getting honor roll and the good driver discount. Told me he couldn’t wait to see me at Christmas.

Mom, my own dad hasn’t ever said that to me.”

I’m crushed.

*Never* miss a chance to tell a kid that you are proud.

Homeland Security doesn’t grasp the fact that the first Thanksgiving was about making “room at the table” for European “invaders.”

My wife just had to inform my mother that today (not tomorrow) is Thanksgiving. She is hosting us at her house (though we’re doing all cooking).

I don’t watch much network tv, but after watching the parade it seems as if NBC is now the “oops! All The Office clones!” Network.

There are times where social media absolutely baffles me.

Like I get being a hater, but if you’re talking to someone and they’re actually desiring to make you mad is something that breaks my brain.

Like in a very real “I don’t even have the circuitry to desire to do that so I’m confused” way.

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh

right, like is there burning indignation about the Irish who also live on a British isle?

I understand the reasons some non-Americans have for using this, but this post is correct — you’ll be immediately ignored here if you use it.

If I wrote a post referring to “UKians” all the people living there would ignore me too, and rightly so.
If your argument involves referring to Americans as “USians” it doesn’t matter how cogent the rest of your point may be tbh

There was not, in fact, enough on how Dr. Bliss sucks. But they did at least show that he did suck.

I'm just a boy, standing here, begging Netflix to stop the "1800s-Early 1900s Based On True Events with Needle Drops!" thing. Enough.

Enough.
