The proof that I am loved by my partner since it apparently is that very love that allows her to tolerate this…🤣

A minute to put together. Two hours to fluff. And then I’ll get grief for putting Darth Vader on it later. I love this season (really, no sarcasm intended). The cats certainly do.

Happy decorating if you do this sort of thing!

Return home to the Twilight Zone.
Matt Gaetz looks eerily similar to the puppet from the original “Twilight Zone”.

Jon Batiste blues-ing up Beethoven just seems so perfect as Thanksgiving week kicks off, the wind howls outside, and snow looms large for the end of the week.
Cover to Jon Batiste's latest album "Beethoven Blues".

Next he’ll be sporting one of these. Donmoji courtesy of The Oatmeal.
The Oatmeal created a series of amusing Donmojis. This is an armband reminiscent of one Nazis wore, bit instead of a swastika, there are four letter T’s arranged to resemble a swastika.

A comic from The Oatmeal that shows two beings panicking while trying to find a button on their respective laptops. Text in the comic reads: “Infinity (noun): that moment when a video call ends and it's just the two of you desperately avoiding ere contact while searchin for the END CALL button.”

Morning Oatmeal. Mmmmmm.
Comic about the word “queue” from The Oatmeal. One arrow drawn from the letter Q points to the following statement: “You can say the entire word simply by reading this first letter aloud.” A second arrow drawn from the remaining letters u, e, u, and e point to: “‘ueue’ just hangs around like the last guy at a party. The party’s over ueue. Go home.”
