$1000 per person? What the fuck are y'all doing for Thanksgiving???
The Trump sticker shock at Thanksgiving this year is real. Everything—from turkey to airline fares—has become more expensive.
This is set to be the most expensive Thanksgiving in history, costing the average American $1,000.

After MUCH procrastinating, the 2026 calendar is finally here. I enabled the free preview in case you don't have $20 to spare this year. Will finish the Lefty/Foster Dogs one tomorrow. 🎁

Spend an entire year with the goofballs at Blue Heron Farm. Sure, it's mostly goats, but you should see what they get up to.

I remember when my nemesis decided she was going back to school to get an MFA so she could write a book in which I was the villain, and the money would be used to save her farm. I laughed so hard I peed my pants.
almost every novelist you read who's not from the airport fiction or bestseller sections is working a full on day job, including multi-award winners and absolute legends, or they have a spouse or trust that supports them. virtually across the board. just normalize in your mind that's how it works.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

I think the grass, beef was supposed to be grass fed beef and 'to allow the smoothies' was meant to be tallow smoothies. And I really, really hate that I understand this.
Trump: "Despite their size, Secretary Kennedy has formally certified that these are the first ever MAHA turkeys. They could be fat, but they're still MAHA. They've been fattened on a steady diet of grass, beef, to allow the smoothies and all the other things they have been eating for this occasion."

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

The eternal problem of that casserole is that it's overcooked and mushy. It's not actually the flavors.

I really enjoy everyone hating on green bean casserole this week, but one year I made a fresh version and it was tits!
Steam or saute fresh green beans (leave some good snap!) and top with a not-quite-bechamel mushroom sauce and fried shallots.
