Do my best to support organizers fighting for racial, economic and climate justice. Insanely lucky husband and papa. Native Brooklynite/Current Minnesotan. Gooner.
At 45 I’ve made my peace with not being able to play sports the way I used to. But not being able to eat obscene amounts of food on Thanksgiving like I used to is tough.

Obviously family and friends, sure. But today I’m real thankful for two of the strongest men in my life - two guys who never get the praise and the adulation these days but are always just there for me. My President and Vice President.

My wife organized a thanksgiving day play date with neighbors so that one parent in each family could cook undisturbed. Further proof that she is a genius.

So Olivia Nuzzi is clearly a piece of shit who can never work in journalism again after this.

And, also, Ryan Lizza is clearly a piece of shit who should never work in journalism again after this either.

We're all agree on that, right?

I have not been a fan of the clear “best team in the world” since the late 90’s Yankees. I fucking love this Arsenal team.

Bayern Munich have been beaten for the first time this season.

They went 18 games without defeat until the visit to Arsenal.

That second half from Arsenal was fucking sensational. As good as you could possibly hope to put in against a team as good as this.

Bossed it 100%. Madueke with his first goal, and then Martinelli, no less than we deserved. And Bayern offered NOTHING after the break.

Hello Europe, we're Arsenal

Set pieces aren’t ruining football. Manuel Neuer’s mustache, on the other hand…

My family has been making that corn casserole recipe for a few years and it has rapidly risen up the chart of my favorite Thanksgiving side dishes. Which is funny because it’s a stupidly easy recipe (then again - so are mashed potatoes and stuffing!)

100% - I go through every single day not using it. Not for ethical or political reasons - I just seem to go through every day not seeing any reason for me to do so!
one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

I have a lot of work to get done before the holiday break but it’s tough because I also have to watch this video of Zohran fanboy-ing out to Héctor Bellerín 300 more times.

damn new organized crime revenue stream just dropped
Trevor Phillips proposes banning "remittances" (ie: imposing currency/exchange controls on international cash transfers by foreign nationals from Britain). He says this would disincentivise immigration, in a Times piece saying the Home Secretary needs to go [much] further

Going to war as "a favor to our oil companies" used to be something Republicans vigorously denied.
Rep. Salazar: "We're gonna be doing a favor to us, to our children, to our economy, to our oil companies to be able to liberate. And to Venezuelans who wants to be free."

If Manchester United lose to a team that is down to 10 men because one of their players smacked his own teammate in the face….I think that’s grounds for a points deduction.

What an amazing day for Arsenal and for Eberechi Eze. Incredible for him in any context, but with his history, his journey, it's just really, really special.

Also a massive win, and a statement/fuck off win in this title race after the results yesterday

Huge day, lots of fun to be had after this!
