You need to factor in my dad. He's a Celtic fan, and has a strange and verified curse that when he's watching a game and leaves the room, Celtic will score a goal.
His bladder must've been playing up tonight. 😅

The holes! THE HOLES! 😱

Makes my head go all fuzzy. But it does look delicious! Nicely done!

It's super effective!

NOT the response I just received from Uncle Billy. Might have to rethink 😬

I have a couple of relatives likely on the way out - I'll float the idea. 🗿🗿🗿

When I was a student, we had a Thanksgiving with some US friends. One of them made pecan pie and WOW why bother with anything else!?
Forget the turkey, just load some pecan pie on my plate and I'll give thanks to anyone you want 🤤

Just looked it up and they sound delicious! 🤤

ngl tho disappointed that these aren't potatoes carved as an effigy of the deceased and laid side by side upon their coffin like a carbohydrate Easter Island :(

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Let me regale you with a tale from my youth during the Feline War. It was a cold day in February. Litterboxes were scattered, scratching posts burnt to a cinder, and tuna was heavily rationed..."

oh yeah sorry I wish you luck!
November 26, 2025 at 11:58 PM
I humbly request pics of the outcome - good or bad, it sounds bloody delicious! 🤤

This Thanksgiving,
Remember hash
Forget the mash 💜

Thank you - you've articulated that very nicely!

I have amazing colleagues who do work in Assistive Technology, and they're designing solutions by working with real people and their needs.

"EdTech" appears to be a "solution" looking for a problem/profit, and nefariously targeting young people.
November 26, 2025 at 11:20 PM
Absolutely! These are technologies that are designed WITH children and their caregivers, FOR children. Actually my colleagues do amazing work in this.

As far as I can tell, EdTechbros design WITH other EdTechbros, FOR profit.

You can tell Dolly Parton wasn't an academic!
To be fair, "Workin' nine to ten" would've sounded a bit off.

I have not secured permission for this idiosyncrasy, and given the current allowances I think I'd be pushing my luck 😆
November 26, 2025 at 12:32 AM
Honestly I fucking loathe the whole idea of "EdTech"

Pushers of technology into education couldn't give a flying fuck about students, educators, education itself, or any of their other so-called "use cases".

They care ONLY about profits. I really wish our execs could perceive this blinding light 😡

By the power invested in Peanuts, I shall be IRRESISTIBLE!

Not quite at the OnlyFans confidence level yet but watch this space - I think this sweater could be the spark that ignites a bonfire 🔥

Today I have ordered my first ever Christmas sweater! And it's got Snoopy on it!
Just warning you in advance of my outrageous handsomeness 😘

"something" in this case refers to "a path of emotional destruction through orchestrated addiction to a sycophantic manipulative deathbot" and I can't help but think this should have been clarified in the title 😕
