It’s only day 1 and I already love this idea so so much!
We're doing an Advent calendar of iconic Christmas movie dresses and we're kicking things off with Donna Reed's dutiful wife frock in IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE and how it highlighted the film's themes, time and place:

I’m a real grinch when it comes to AI but this seems like a legit use case for an LLM. Super cool! A little afraid of what the whales might have to say, tbh.
Mind-blowingly cool use of AI

There’s nothing like a circle of women who want the best for each other. Women who strategize. Women who mediate between one another and manipulate the world with a unified, equitable objective. You were probably taught that this isn’t our nature. Society stole that from you. We are the best at it.

You don’t have to waste energy on bad-faith debates with anyone, even if they’re family.
The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

I have mixed feelings about the We Aren’t Buying It boycott, but I think it’s worth trying every tool in our toolbox.
I won’t be buying anything that’s not food, gas, or from an independent maker between tomorrow and Monday.

Got vaxxed yesterday. It’s not as bad of an immune response as the last go-round. No fever, no chills, but I’m still a bit miserable and achey (and awake).
Get your shots before the holiday, peeps.

It's always hard to pick a worst day politically, but today the president called for the death of members of the opposition party, and the administration decided that people were being too hard on the swastika

This Thanksgiving I'm grateful that my brother married into a super amazing liberal family that's half Jewish. We now outnumber the MAGAs ten-to-one. Happy Turkey Day to me!

One other thing I want people to remember is that, as GOP officials themselves have said today, the public outcry over the Epstein files is so great that anything less than a full release is going to result in immediate and profound blowback to the regime.
