If you’re celebrating the mass deportations of distraught, exhausted human beings seeking refuge, you probably shouldn’t be singing sweet songs about a baby with “no crib for a bed.”

Christian, If You're Celebrating ICE, You Shouldn't Be Celebrating Christmas
Christian, I’m trying to reconcile two things I’ve seen this season, maybe you can help me make sense of them…

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

The medieval wooden font in the little church at Efenechtyd in North #Wales. It's a lovely thing: the colour of treacle and invitingly tactile. Exceedingly rare, it's survival is probably due to the fact that the great Welsh folklorist and antiquarian Elias Owen was vicar here.

I suppose it makes sense the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is doing well this year given how much inflation has increased since January.

This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Glory to Mother Queens
Zohran Mamdani launched a Thanksgiving charm offense aimed squarely at the president, resulting in Donald Trump himself becoming the day’s main course.
