FYI, if you're doing a small Thanksgiving, Trader Joe's has these half-turkey breasts now (about 3.5 lbs) that are already seasoned and fully cooked that you just have to heat up

I'm going for Minimal Effort Holidays 🥂

I was reading a post over on lawyer Reddit about issues with translators in court and this comment cracked me up

A comment from redditor isla_inchoate saying
"MY favorite interpreter story is [when] I was a clerk we had to get an interpreter for a really unique dialect. Turns out it was so unique that the party and the interpreter had beef from back in their hometown and they started fighting".

My grandparents got me an electric steamer like this when I went to college (which I'm still using decades later!) Maybe something like this? I think it was allowed by my dorm because it had an auto-shutoff

I finally started watching Better Call Saul and I desperately need ones of those University of American Samoa Law School "Go Land Crabs!" hoodies

An obvious improvement, imho

A version of a well-known meme with a concerned looking woman saying "Men?? In my mentions?" The ad continues "It's more likely than you think! Free PC check!"

Unfortunately, he fought for the Confederacy, so you do not under any circumstances "gotta hand it to him"

Since Hot Guy Criminals are in the news again, maybe it's time to start new discourse about proto-Abercrombie & Fitch model/ attempted William Seward assassin/ John Wilkes Booth co-conspirator Lewis Powell

My mom got one of those gigantic Costco bags of candy and insisted I take all the peanut ones, so I've got a pretty sweet haul here (plus some sneaky Twix) 👍
