I’m not a news source, I post about life. My only socials (LinkedIn doesn’t count, silly).
If that’s not one of 3 primary reasons for reading those, I’m missing something.
The 3, as I understand them to be (order determined by mood)

1. To find your taste validated by someone you respect.
2. To harshly judge others’ taste.
3. To find new things to obsess over.
Year-end critics’ lists exist for people to fight over, so I’m happy when people complain about them. But the complaint I will never get is, “I’ve never heard of most of these movies/albums/shows.” Yes, and? Why be mad about learning about stuff you didn’t know before from the news?

I clovered the back half of my yard 2yrs ago and the difference from the other half is stark. Clover is vibrant, soft and lush. The grass is…just not. I put the same amount of effort into each one.

I like nothing about the iPhone 17. I could not hate it more

Everything about this phone is ass. I want to throw it into the ocean.
@appleinsider.com Tim Cook should be ashamed.

Current battery life of this two week old phone? 3.5 hours…and I didn’t even touch it for a solid hour

Funniest part of an NFL football game is when the defense gets a turnover and very briefly the football team turns into the theatre club and they do their little performance they rehearsed that week.

Turkey Soup 2025: made with our never frozen local turkey, fresh local vegetables, stock made from the bones, Rotel, and yellow curry. Had intended to add spinach but it looked off so I passed. The only thing that came from a can/box was the Rotel and the dried rotini.

The photo selection feels intentionally backhanded, and is he’s disagreeing with what’s being said. The text was commanded but no one bothered to proof the photo choice. 😆

Stephen Miller is of Ashkenazi Jewish descent. His great-grandparents inhabited the Pale of Settlement (western Russia where Jews were allowed to live) and escaped Russian pogroms and the Holocaust. All the same racist, xenophobic, ignorant things he is saying were said about his own family.

Just your regular reminder that Donald Trump is an adjudicated rapist
Analysis | Judge clarifies: Yes, Trump was found to have raped E. Jean Carroll
What the jury found Donald Trump did to E. Jean Carroll was in fact rape, as commonly understood, even if it didn't fit New York law's narrow definition, says Judge Lewis A. Kaplan.

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

I'm not sure how to say this any more simply. ACA premium tax credits are for people, not insurer. People receiving a tax credit can use it to buy any plan in the ACA marketplace. As an administrative mechanism, the government then forwards the tax credit to the chosen insurer.
