Somehow I always thought that being on the right side of history would probably feel better than this.
Another successful Thanksgiving in the books. Especially surprising this year since I was pretty concerned that ICE might cause trouble for the Dora the Explorer balloon.

I wish it didn’t feel so unusual and inspiring to see a leader treating everyone like they matter and saying that we have a responsibility to help each other
Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

The last president who declared that anything he does is legal was Richard M. Nixon. And we all know how things worked out for him . . .

this is, again, a case of someone who has not done any kind of real work in decades (maybe ever, she has a degree in political science and has been doing HR her entire career) who think the bullshit they sleepwalk through every day is work and don't understand why real human beings get tired by it
While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.
Walmart exec: ‘I’ve never believed in the term work-life balance’—this is the mantra that made her highly successful instead
Many professionals see work-life balance as a non-negotiable. Walmart CPO Donna Morris says people should practice work-life integration instead. Here's why.

I’m assuming that if you’re a professional who’s in charge of food preparation and a member of the indigenous peoples of North America comprising the Santee, Yankton, and Lakota you’d be referred to as a Sioux chef?

Among other travesties in this statement, National Guard soldiers are not "law enforcement"
REPORTER: There are people upset with the president, believing the National Guard members shouldn't have been there
PIRRO: I don't even wanna talk about whether they should've been there. We ought to kiss the ground and thank God that the president said it's time to bring in more law enforcement

Every time I see an update on the Olivia Nuzzi story, I think of all the strippers and OnlyFans models with real skill at convincing sad older dudes they're horny for them.
And I think about how they don't get near the social status and money Nuzzi gets. It's a travesty.

I find it too triggering to watch the Macy's Parade because of all the clowns. The ones marching are fine, it's the ones from the executive suite in the reviewing stands that I find disturbing.

Got to love how much praise NYT gets for one article, 2+ years late, that literally just rehashes things we all knew already but NYT has spent the last 2 years ignoring & denying & obfuscating.
The New York Times produced a detailed, data-driven report on President Trump showing signs of aging. The president, 79, responded by calling the female reporter who co-wrote the story “ugly.” https://cnn.it/48idUFL
