A Holiday Appears!

[François]

Boy I'd like to have a Christmas Yule that doesn't turn me into a tightly packed bundle of stress and insecurities one of these years. Maybe next time.

That said, I did just make a thoroughly unreasonable stack of cinnamon pancakes topped with the tastiest maple syrup in the world, literally one-handed, so some things are still good and pure.

Have the best possible one, you buncha magnificent brigands.

Debauched Saturnalia!

I PULLED MYSELF UP BY MY BOOTSTRAPS BY WORKING A PART TIME JOB TO PUT MYSELF THROUGH COLLEGE WITH NO DEBT AND THEN IMMEDIATELY BUYING A HOUSE AND PAYING IT OFF WITHIN 5 YEARS

NOBODY EVER HELPED ME

It's nice seeing more pushback against the revisionist depiction of MLK as cuddly, inoffensive, and uncontroversial.

It seems like every year I see more of the mainstream press acknowledging that no actually he was not universally beloved (hence the whole "being assassinated" thing) and including Letter from Birmingham Jail and Beyond Vietnam in their remembrances alongside I Have a Dream.

The power of Tenacious D is the only thing keeping that from being pure cringe. An attempt was made but... Well, at least Disgraced Mayor Pete and Warren probably didn't realize Sarandon would be in it too, that would've been a fun reveal.

Anyway, boo (it's a thread)

I'm pretty sure they realized she was going to be in it somewhere.

I forgot (yesterday) was explosions night in the UK and went for a nice evening stroll with the world's most easily terrified Malamute. Not my smartest life choice.

[Mongrel]

So you're saying you forgot, forgot?

Space Station 20th: Thanksgiving Celebrations in Space

I thought "Hey, that's my senator!" but nope, it's Scott, not Mark.

This guy's got it dead wrong. Japan very clearly knows the true meaning of Christmas.
