Office pooch Raine and I grinding away at the office!

i sense there’s something in the wind 🌀

Apologies for the (unpaid!) advertisement, but if you've been tempted to subscribe to the Criterion Channel, I just learned that you can use the code BLACKFRIDAY25 to get 25% off an annual subscription—$75 rather than $100. It's one of the few streaming channels I never regret paying for.

The sale saved me $150. I got 8 audiobooks for $53 and supported my local book truck with each purchase. Be cool. Choose libro.fm

guys i dont think i defrosted my turkey right

That moment you pet the cat, and WHY IS IT WET!

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store. If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

No. The Thing is a movie about a bunch of people who all distrust and hate each other trapped in one building as the tension between them slowly builds until it reaches a breaking point. It's a Thanksgiving movie.

this is mesmerizing

trump going to come out of his meeting with Gobble and Waddle smiling, talking about how they really *should* be leaving more loose corn and seed on the ground

One of my favorite things is getting to tell friends who are new to NYC that the subway "stand clear of the closing doors please" voice is a trans woman named Bernie Wagenblast and she's amazing.

inventing a monday through wednesday that's entirely food prep. bills, work, chores are all suspended

This book is just amazing. I read it earlier this year and I still think about it at least once a week. I've recommended it to so many people in my life.

If you like sprawling alternate history with unreliable narrators, there's the book I co-wrote with @happierman.bsky.social (currently only available as an audiobook in the uk) www.amazon.co.uk/You-Feel-Jus...

If you like adventure stories and reading a book at the rate of one chapter every two weeks, there's my new serial novel calamitystrinket.ghost.io

And if you like newsletters that swing between rating outfits on tv and impotent railing against the hell in which we find ourselves, I have that too! ihavenoplanforthis.ghost.io

Full disclosure: I've had an extremely rough year and I could really use a lift! You can help give me that lift by simply going out in the world and saying to another human, 'hey, you should read this thing!'

Also your mashed potatoes are bad because you didn’t use enough butter. However much butter you think you used isn’t enough. Add more. Do you hate joy? No? Add more butter and shut up.

Lot of talk about if thanksgiving food is good. This is nonsense. Just as cigarettes are nicotine delivery devices, thanksgiving food is a gravy delivery device. Get the gravy right and nothing else matters.

ON A UHF STATION, NO LESS :D IT'S NOT JUST HISTORY IT'S *MSTORY*

It helps to lighten the load and share it with someone who understands. Reach out. My base rate is $40 for a call/text exchange where we work through the situation and give you information and a sounding board. For most people that’s all they need. You’re not alone and people do care. 2/e

As we roll into the holidays, a reminder. This time of year we see an uptick in families losing beloved pets. If you’re wrestling with those decisions, know that you don’t have to do it alone. I provide hospice/end of life assistance for pets. Anticipatory grief is heavy. 1/

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays: Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink. If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business. Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I'm not sure if he had a choice, but I came downstairs from changing the bedding and they are sharing my desk chair

That is exactly what I do and I have saved every spreadsheet from every year, which I know is ridiculous, but sometimes I mix things up and it helps to have somewhere to go back to in case I forget. It has my guest list, which breaks down how much I'll need for however many people will be there. 1/

I’ve often called this song—“Just Like Heaven”—the finest single of the 80s and meant it. This cover’s arrangement only confirms it for me 💜🔥

Just told the Jehovah Witnesses at my gate to get out in the streets and join up with other churches and help the immigrants and stop wasting their time on the houses on my block. I’m sure I just changed everything. Hahah

Shadow has decided she's had enough of my menu planning for today

FYI: The Boulet Brothers and David Dastmalchian are decking the halls for HOLIDAY OF HORRORS, a festive anthology featuring shorts from Akela Cooper and Kate Siegel, hitting Shudder next month.

some people were only ever decent because they knew they could get punched in the face and it's kind of one of the primary problems of our time, turns out

You showed up. So did we. 🌺 Very Important People season 3 - premiering December 4th, only on @dropout.tv 🫂

always remember: Terry Pratchett said trans rights this book was written in 1996 by a 48 year old British man and no cis person in 2025 has a single goddamn excuse to behave differently

Today, and every day, we remember those we’ve lost to violence and recommit to fighting for trans communities.   #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance

I started a GLP 1 med a month ago. I was very reluctant to do so, but both my GP and my RA doc talked to each other and recommended I try it as the RA meds I'm on have been raising my blood sugar and there is good info that they help with inflammation & any weight loss would help my joints 1/

Could Pluto or sling or somebody else do a 24-hour Rankin/Bass streaming channel for the holidays? I need my Christmas specials. And yes, I own them, I just want a channel to just put them on and veg out.

My favorite: "Twas the Night Before Christmas". Or as I like to call it: "Santa Claus is a Petty Dick Who Takes Away Christmas From All Children Because One 'Know-It-All' Mouse Hurt His Feelings"

Nutsy modeling his Thanksgiving themed shirt. He’s got feline hyperesthesia. The dental issue has caused a massive flare in symptoms. The shirt provides light compression and helps him feel more comfortable.
