Oh man. Just realized Rob Reiner is in the last few episodes of The Bear I haven't watched yet. Been working my way through the latest season over the last week, and I don't think I have it in me to finish it quite yet now...

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

This is Deejay. He wanted to offer you a big nose and tiny tongue during this trying time. 14/10 (IG: deejayelgolden)

Nice to see that one part of the system did its job today; things are so bleak, broadly speaking, that I will cling to any shred of decent outcome.

Donald Trump is a very sick man.

EVERYTHING IS VERY FINE. ktla.com/news/local-n...

How tf is that vile, dementia-riddled, narcissistic, felonial oligarchical mangolomaniac still in office! Surely those he hadn't already pissed off must be just a little miffed by the screed against a murdered legend?? (The rest of us are royally offended, so I'm setting that bar intentionally low.)

Yesterday WAS a very good day. Today was good, too! Fittingly sandwiched by…

God I love Grocery Outlet some days. Gin wasn’t on the shopping list — until I looked up the retail price. Yeah, I’ll take those 2 bottles at that price, THANKS!

As he celebrates his 100th Birthday this very day, can we all take a moment to acknowledge that time when Dick Van Dyke won the internet internet. Forever.

Hopefully a sign that the good day I’m expecting should will actually BE a good day.

(mahna mahna)

Fucking LEGEND. I've always hoped to run into him around town, even though I would just stare from afar because I'm not about to disturb Dick Van Dyke, lol. Happy 100!

Made a batch of overloaded hot and sour soup for dinner tonight! Doing double duty to warm me up as tonight’s temps dropped, and clearing my nasal congestion <sniff> So easy and tasty, you won’t need your local takeout anymore.

all i'm saying is that there were better options

Frozen ahi steaks from Aldi are the best secret no one talks about. Poke whenever you want! Or the day after you accidentally make 3x as much Calrose rice as you needed, and a poke bowl is a best use for it…

@hoonofthe.day Stef! I spotted a ‘lump-colored Porsche today and thought of you!

It's not the corruption per se, it's the low low price of the bribe.

Mad Men made me do it! The AMC channel on Samsung (or Plex, and maybe other places?) is airing the series in order right now. What other show can inspire a drink like this does! lol And this ep is even set in December. Mad Men Gibson #DrinkCheck

If you ever wanted the distinction of buying a stranger the only holiday present they'd receive if you did, I want this. a.co/d/6EkVQbq

A few straggling pantry items—old kimchi, pork chop, daikon, green onion, garlic, ginger, gochujang. Some tofu and mushrooms fresh from today. And you got yourself a stew, baby!

All put together! Gonna put the kit-n-caboodle in a tall reusable bag to serve as wrapping. Here’s hoping whoever gets it likes it! I’d be ecstatic if it got stolen, but would settle for the recipient not trying to pawn it off like last year’s homemade espresso martini + kit.

Did you know that you can just… make sugar cubes? These aren’t as hard compressed as commercial ones, because (unimportant reasons), but now I wanna get some better molds and try again! These are lemon sugar, to include with a French 75 “kit” for a white elephant gift exchange

This is just silly.

We got Weird Al out here singing Killing In The Name, the time for moderation is over

Sometimes you just need to eat a lot of melted cheese about it

And now, the most traditional of all Thanksgiving leftovers: turkey noodle soup. aka pho

Revisiting a piece of childhood. Hope it holds up — and what a cast!

Her skeleton makes a purrrrrdy stock mmmmm (this is only half of it)

Oh, and this neighbor took my trash out this morning, without me asking him (or him asking me). Just saw it and did it to be nice. #BestNeighborEver

My turkey baster broke while roasting my turkey last week. Asked my neighbor if he had one to borrow. Poked around Amazon, but $15 for a baster I use 8x a year is silly. Put it on my perpetual Notes shopping list, since it’s low priority. <knock, knock> I was just at the market, and got you this!

Universe fucking with me again today! Just a few minutes after I sat down from cleaning my laptop, coffee table, and everything on the coffee table from coughing with a mouthful of coffee – fulllll spit take over everything… I’ve been given a headlight.

This Incubus song was in heavy rotation for me during his first term, so i especially love this moniker. Now need to start calling his sycophants MAGAlomaniacs. Oh, but also, despite Dementia Don’s latest breakdown, sadly we know this is the only platform that’ll discuss it; the news won’t bother.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Matched my Apple Business to the sunset for a #DrinkCheck

I was a little concerned when I saw grape ramune hwachae flavor, but omg it tastes like lychee sorbet with a hint of Concord grape, and I had to put the container away before I demolished it all. Will definitely get this bag again!

Maybe it's a little late in the season, but it's weird that I haven't seen apple cider (fresh) in the grocery store this year? I've only been casually looking for the last week or two, but... where is it hiding?? I just want a pint to make a few Apple Business cocktails.

Finally excited by a new option on Too Good To Go! Been avoiding all the WF insanity, but couldn’t pass up treating myself to some of the best ice cream in LA! Unless I get the one banana flavor on the menu—watch… And a referral link in case you want to download: tgtg.onelink.me/OGjG/e6hkrli7

What I’m about to say sounds insane, I know. But I had dark meat last night, and white meat tonight (with a couple bites of dark), and I think the white meat came out better/tastier/juicier. I know. Sounds like crazy talk. And the forthcoming pot pie dish is gonna rock.

And for those who might be curious… yes, I am damn good at turkey.

Cooked a 14# turkey (felt too pitiful to do it alone yesterday), and am in spine-crunching extreme pain. So my Negroni and I wholeheartedly deserve the Waterford tonight.

Black Friday shopping at the Jewish thrift store means Usher and OutKast and no fucking Christmas music. This is amazing. (And the whole store is half off.)

Today I am thankful for Domino’s, who are open for those of us who don’t receive a single invitation to a Thanksgiving gathering. Happy fucking thanksgiving or something I guess.

My life goal (or summer symphony going goal, anyways) is to see the BFH be played. Maybe the new music director will opt for Mahler 6!

Does it *really* count as Black Friday shopping if the only stores i may go to are my local thrifts, which are doing half off the whole store? Because I feel like I can’t skip that.

With DC shooter now identified as an Afghan national not the antifa secret agent White House hoped for a good time to remember the Trump admin has gutted domestic anti-terrorism capacity and reassigned many to finding grandmothers to arrest at immigration hearings.
