It's been 400 years and the Thanksgiving holiday is fraught. Can we convert it to a simple national celebration of pie?

When things politically and socially feel hopeless or like nothing matters, I remember a very simple thing I was told:
Are there people who need help?
Are you in a position to give help?
If so, then it doesn't matter whether the thing you do is big or small, just keep helping others.

THE WEATHER I’VE BEEN DREAMING OF.
Before you go to bed Tuesday night, make sure you have any sensitive plants covered up or brought inside!
I still think the chances are lower inside the 494/694 loop, but err on the side of caution.
There is PLENTY of growing season left in October.

I don’t know about you, but I’d like to keep my family’s access to life saving vaccines. Thank you, @governorwalz.mn.gov.
I just issued an executive order to safeguard vaccine access in Minnesota.
While the Trump Administration attempts to limit Americans’ access to preventative care, Minnesota will continue to be guided by science and the freedom to seek out medical expertise.

Our children are getting shot down and killed because some, not all, politicians think that their job is to protect the gun lobby from regulation rather than protect our children from being shot. Any official who sounds compassionate but won’t act is insincere. Check their campaign finance report!

Let that sink in for a minute.
Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day.
Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day.
It's not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

It seems like businesses have all upped their prices but the person writing the coupons is still living in 1942. Save 50 cents on my next order? 50 cents? Are you serious?
