Shoveled my own and my neighbors' walk, went for a little walk, came in and Kate had hot Bang Bang biscuits and I made Mexican hit chocolate with rum and whipped cream. Just the best damn day.

St. Paul police brutally assault locals defending their neighbors from ICE, then absurdly accuse the locals of being "professional agitators."
"We are not your adversary. We are your police."
They support ICE with violence, just as they murder with impunity. They are, in fact, our adversaries.

Hard agree. One year my dad decided he was gonna do mole to go with the turkey as well. He was up at 6 to go the Mexican grocery store, made a great mole and no one but him touched it bc today you eat gravy.
Thanksgiving is the sole Food Oriented Holiday for which I have no interest in culinary creativity or novelty. I want turkey and stuffing and potatoes and green bean casserole and I want gravy on all of it.
“Liven up your stuffing with persimmons” no, fuck that, I will liven it up with gravy.

I feel like The Church just recently realized all the horrible shit its done and has gone on a massive bender to make amends or something
In the US, Catholic sisters return Wisconsin land to Ojibwe tribe in a historic first. The Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration have transferred a lakefront property to the Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa for the same $30,000 they paid in 1966.

For the first time, Catholic sisters return land to a Tribal nation
"This return represents more than the restoration of land — it is the restoration of balance, dignity, and our sacred connection to the places our ancestors once walked."

Made a pilgrimage to the @debsmuseum.bsky.social in Terra Haute yesterday and boy was it worth the drive. The curator abs guide, Allison was a font of knowledge. We got the 90 min tour age easily could have listened to her talk about Gene and his times for twice that. A true hearth of comradeship.
