Thorns. Timbers. Black shoe. Trusty Shellback. Elderly white hippie. Fuck you, make me.
My grandparents, mother, and uncle dressed as pilgrims for Thanksgiving, about 1940; the Thanksgiving menu for the Naval Amphibious Base Galveston, Texas, where my dad was stationed, 1944.

Wishing everyone a peaceful and abundant Thanksgiving.

I guess that's the same Brett Ratner who lost his deal with Warners in the wake of the sexual misconduct allegations from 6 different women and hasn't who directed or produced anything since 2015 except the upcoming bio of the current First Lady.

I hear mariachi static on the radio
And the the tubes, they glow in the dark
I'm there with her in Ensenada
And I'm here in Echo Park

I want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'Cause two out of there ain't bad

I’m old enough to have served on active duty when military operations were given innocuous names instead of announcing the target and/or reason.

Pretty good crowd for the vet-sponsored No War on Our Cities rally and march to the ICE building g in South Waterfront. We laid flowers on the blue line in memory of all of the detainees who have died in ICE custody so far this year.

Fake, likely AI. Enlisted Marines, like the ones who serve as Marine 1's honor guard, don't have gold stripes on their sleeves. That's a Navy & Coast Guard officer thing. Also the badge on his cover (hat) doesn't look like the eagle, globe, and fouled anchor worn by Marines.

I think it appealed to me because of this, which was a formative part of my youth.
