I only watch CBS for sports and I'm always amazed at these copaganda franchises that have somehow spawned six different shows with twelve seasons each. And all of them called "NCIS: Duluth" or "Ambulance Firemen Marshals" or some shit.

Ham can gtf out, are you kidding me right now? Mac and cheese, definitely. I'll say green bean casserole too. I know that empirically deviled eggs should probably go but they're just so good

thanksgiving is a time for people to come together, to celebrate the spirit of unity despite our differences, and to demonstrate that, here is busta rhymes performing "break ya neck" with raphael the ninja turtle

A float of Goku from Dragon Ball Z, smiling and holding his hand to his head with two fingers extended. There is a caption that says [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] overlaid on top of him.

Not a fan of the cheerleaders during this performance. It's a very Smells Like Teen Spirit aesthetic

Hahaha YouTube TV is doing a parade multiview option. 4 channels of parade coverage at once. That's for diehards only

Tip for parade lovers: CNN is doing a show of parades across America. Includes Detroit as well as Chicago, Philadelphia, and others.

If you're in Detroit and want to be able to flip to Macy's, see if you have Telemundo. It's like the NBC feed of the Macy's parade, just in Spanish.

Btw anyone know the best way to also see some of the Macy's parade? I'm guessing the answer is Peacock or YouTube.

Well, we have decided not to go to the parade tomorrow morning. It's just going to be so cold. It's all right, we'll watch on TV. I don't want us all to freeze.

Those evil furries

very odd that the Post would write up someone’s speciation as if it’s news. What are we doing here
Laura Loomer, the far-right political activist known for her virulently anti-Muslim views, was quick to speculate about the shooter’s background on X, where she has 1.8 million followers. “Communist, Muslim, Trans terrorist, Furry, or ANTIFA?” she asked. Loomer also posted a photo of a bearded man being carried into an ambulance, though The Washington Post could not immediately verify that the image came from Wednesday’s crime scene. “I’m just going to say. That’s a very Mohammedan looking beard,” she wrote. “I’ll wait for more details. But the beard with no mustache the night before a Western holiday is not lost on me.”
