Best audiobook to help you cope with an impossibly awful reality and terrible people? I’d prefer to listen instead of reading and would like to hear a pleasant voice.

Love how the New Yorker is positing that “cancel culture” means people can resubscribe to whatever got canceled after the requisite amount of time. Now with added UMLAUTS.

It's the umlaut. The nonsense is gobsmacking, the servility pathetic, but the shit cherry on top of this shit cake is, undoubtedly that twee little grab for space on the faux intellectual high ground.
What absolute--and I can't stress this strongly enough--wankers.

When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

Louis C.K.’s Next Chapter
In a new standup special, and a début novel, the comedian navigates murky, post-#MeToo terrain: not quite exiled, not quite welcomed back.

Got a recommendation to check out the show Human Footprint on PBS. The first episode features a woman who hunts Burmese pythons in Florida. She’s captured more than 600!!

According to King County Metro there is a tree lighting AND fireworks event tonight downtown. FIREWORKS? Is this new? Am I just *that* out of it? Either way I do not plan on being downtown for these shenanigans.

The Thanksgiving meal has been consumed, the plates are clean, and the guests have left, which means the season of holiday romcoms can officially commence. First up: Jingle Bell Heist.

Today I give thanks for life's bounty, our freedoms, & communities that give me joy. May you be with the people you love. I also acknowledge our nation's complicated history, where one culture's victory was another's loss. We still grapple with the basic truth that all of us are inherently worthy.

If writing is so easy why do people argue that they can’t do it without the pablumatic verbiage extruder
And if it’s so difficult then why do people think it’s not labour and writers are not workers

I would also like stores to have and advertise their Christmas music-free hours during the holidays. Like maybe before 11am or something. Sometimes you just need to be able to avoid it.
