Hi, Bluesky! If you already have a dressing recipe that’s your “if I don’t have my grandma’s dressing I’ll die” thanksgiving requirement, you should make that one and have a great Thursday.
If you don’t have one, now you have mine, with duck fat and focaccia. With all my heart, I hope you enjoy it.

People are like, "I don't understand why Lindsey Vonn didn't just stop." I don't know. You're 39 and it took bigotry for you to move on from Harry Potter

It would be super fun if we had a government that would investigate both of these men for living in Puerto Rico for tax evasion purposes, but unfortunately we don’t!

“They wanted the game Bad Bunny played instead” is perfect and I can’t be clear enough that the sports bar I was in half-emptied after Benito’s concert.
Ray Ratto watched the Seattle Seahawks crush the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX, and he has some thoughts:

RFK Jr on what he'll eat during the Super Bowl: "I am on a carnivore diet so I just eat meat and ferments, and I'm very happy with that. So I'm probably going to have yogurt."

The thing is, I’m gonna have a couple of challenges over the next few weeks.
because I hate everything about this country and what it stands for
and over the course of the last forty years you can’t possibly understand how serious I have become about international sporting events

My motto for the last year+ has been something I heard but can’t remember who first said it:
“Maybe if I just start doing it, something will come of it.”
Just go do anything. If it doesn’t work out, you spend the rest of your life knowing you tried.

if everyone could take on the “what if we just did the thing instead of waiting for it to happen” energy that much of minneapolis has right now, the world could be pretty good

Baby, this is my calling
My actual job description is activist and here’s what I tell people in despair all the time: do not underestimate how much harm you can prevent by being just a little bit annoying.
This is one reason I keep trying to remind people of the power that we have. That we have *always* had. Not because I’m in denial, but because I know history. I’m no sophisticated intellectual, but I do know we’re going to win even though the bad shit is really terrible right now.

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
