As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

The timeline is currently 75% “I may be at work, noun, but I am not at work, verb” and I agree.

As you’re doing holiday shopping, consider Amplitudes!

I’m proud of this project, and all our contributors—folks from more than 6 countries, each bringing unique perspectives and stories about queer/trans futurity, community, and survival even or especially through difficult times—did amazing work.
For #transawarenessweek, a bump for Amplitudes: Stories of Queer and Trans Futurity!

Featuring contributors from across the globe, including both familiar and fresh voices, it gathers 22 speculative stories about queer and trans futures—and I hope at least one of them will hit for you 🖤

Oh shit I might have new plans while stuck quarantined
13 years ago I invented Kicksgiving, an alternative to Thanksgiving where you Celebrate Bruce Lee's birthday by watching kung fu movies and sharing food with your friends, and it's somehow still going strong!

I do find it weird that one of my most useless skills is inventing holidays that go viral.

Device…hoarding. Because you don’t go get a new one while yours is still fine.

Apparently I am also practicing car hoarding, house hoarding, husband hoarding, dog hoarding, computer hoarding, furniture hoarding and art hoarding.
stupid young people, stop buying a new phone every year if you don't want to be broke. wait no, not like that.

On the one hand: my partner having a nasty fever sucks and also means I can't go to Thanksgiving for fear of infecting elderly relatives

On the other: I basically have an excuse to stay inside Thurs and Friday and play games all day instead now...

I paused, out of breath. The Void had taken all my frustrated screaming and absorbed it.

"I'm sorry," I whispered. "You must have heard all this before, countless times."

'only you,' said the Void, 'scream your frustration like you do'

I took a deep breath to resume, then smiled.

"Thanks."

today's prompt: gender neutral/NB names inspired by nature, the more unhinged the better. go go go.
For real though, bibliographic terms make great nonbinary names. I have genuinely considered changing my name to Deckle

It's nice to know that even 100% remote I can still instigate coworker shenanigans. Slack has cheesy seasonal statuses (like "🦃 turkey trotting to my next meeting") you can select, and I mentioned this in my team's chat. I've been having fun seeing coworkers slowly succumb to the silly since

"What are you working on?"

I put the soldering iron on its stand and inspected my work.

"A time travel receiver. I figured out the machine can't travel in time itself."

"Do you have a transmitter too?"

I plugged the power in. "Not yet."

A newspaper appeared in the machine.

"I will, next year."

vietnam war protestors loaded their supermarket carts to the brim with perishable meats like hams, turkeys. at checkout they'd ask 'do you have saran wrap? Dow manufactures napalm. we won't shop here.' then leave hundreds of dollars of unsellable merchandise.

saran wrap was off the shelves in days.
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.
