I won’t lie, the stuffing will be Stovetop and the mashed potatoes came out of the deli at Safeway. It’s just the two of us so we didn’t want a ton of leftovers and going completely all-out on the cooking seemed silly.
But I’m doing turkey cutlets with a cranberry and apple sauce, sauteing up some mushrooms to add to the stuffing, and lemon garlic green beans to go with it. And then bread with olive oil and balsamic and herbs for dipping and veggies and dip and fruit and cheese for dessert.

A lot. And that goes for BOTH the hairspray and the damage.
I could dig up pictures of me from the 80’s with big, permed, teased hair. The Aqua Net can was a staple in the girl’s bathroom and locker rooms back then, and everyone was at the salon like clockwork getting FSM knows what chemicals put into our hair to make it able to do that crap.
My last perm was in 1989, sophomore year. The stylist left the chemicals in so long I got scalp burn and my skin peeled and flaked for weeks. It also destroyed my hair. I let it grow out just enough to get a pixie bob over the summer and that was the end of my perm days. I’ve worn it natural ever since.

when i was a kid in the early 60s my mom had a teased up blonde bubble held in place with an abundance of hairspray with that evil chemical smell
i remember in those days the smell of hairspray was pervasive. i never saw any woman with long, natural, flowing hair until it became fashionable after 1967

Again with appropriating Holocaust references and terminology. The vast majority of those murdered by the Nazis weren’t Germans. Of the more than 6 million murdered in the Holocaust, 90+% were non-Germans.
130k were Germans slaughtered by the Nazis.
Nearly 5 million were Russian or Polish. Countries the Nazis invaded.
Countries that had entire armies arrayed against the Nazis. You know, armies with tanks, guns, planes, and men with guns. Lots of guns.

It’s even more basic than that.
Health insurance through the employer is part of compensation, thus you purchase it with your labor, so it’s YOURS, like your paycheck. Your employer has no right to tell you what you may purchase with your paycheck, so why should he have the right to tell you what you may purchase with your health insurance?
Another thing is that there are all sorts of religious prohibitions on various forms of healthcare, like Jehovah’s Witnesses and blood transfusions. Should a corporation whose owner happens to be a JW be “forced” to cover blood transfusions? Some Christian Scientists don’t believe in medication during childbirth. Should a corporation whose owner is a Christian Scientist be “forced” to cover epidurals during childbirth?
It’s odd that nobody who thinks employers are being “forced” to cover contraception ever seems to bring up any OTHER religious prohibition on medical treatment, isn’t it?

After reading through the threads today, I am trying hard to understand the hate in this “holiday season” when Hallmark and Gibson Greeting Cards tell everyone it is the time of year for thanks giving for all that is bestowed upon us, peace on earth and good will and glad tidings and all that.
This constant drumbeat of negativity and put-downs of everyone you don’t agree with that is everyday America anymore doesn’t seem to have a place for those feelings. Maybe it does to all those that agree with you, but that is the exact opposite to what the phrases mean. Well, what they used to mean to some of us.
So in that spirit…I dug up a toned down version of one of my all time favorites songs that address this very feeling from the guy that wrote it and the guy that made it a hit.
And the lyrics to same…it is simple words and art that keep me/you/us sane.
As i walk through
This wicked world
Searchin’ for light in the darkness of insanity.
I ask myself
Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?
And each time i feel like this inside,
There’s one thing i wanna know:
What’s so funny ‘bout peace love & understanding? ohhhh
What’s so funny ‘bout peace love & understanding?
And as i walked on
Through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.
‘cause each time i feel it slippin’ away, just makes me wanna cry.
What’s so funny ‘bout peace love & understanding? ohhhh
What’s so funny ‘bout peace love & understanding?
So where are the strong?
And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony?
Sweet harmony.

Ireland: the test bed for the disproportionate retaliation, the dividing-and-conquering, and the rhetoric of “betterment” of the colonized.
I will never not be stunned by the chuckleheads talking about Obama as “anti-colonialist” as though it’s a negative. That it wasn’t fringe fuckwits with GeoCities websites, but “intellectuals” and elected officials in good standing in the GOP.

Yes, I knew he didn’t get it back. So he was no doubt given the shotgun in its place. That’s what I think, and I’m sticking to it. That shotgun is not cheap for someone who pleads poverty to get his legal bills paid by the State.
About $2800 worth of hardware at current market values. And he only had 106 rounds of ammo for all four chamberings? Be interesting to know the breakdown of those.

Wondering if that was the shotgun he held on the girlfriend. At any rate, these are supposed to be “tactical” weapons being marketed to police forces, etc, according to what I read about them.
Obviously, he’s still playing at cop.

It’s a pump-action shotgun, so in most places it doesn’t count as a dreaded “assault weapon”. They are available for general sale. The most recent version of this type of shotgun was an aftermarket upgrade with a longer barrel, intended to improve its capability for skeet shooting.

Freep has a current thread on the papal publication. It discusses nothing but the reaffirmation of the anti-abortion stance.

The Freeper who put that up was likely trying to keep his horde focused on hating ‘Progressives’ over abortion, and thus not hating on the pope for his economic views. Such a thread is actually a skilled bit of distraction.

Farther down they have another thread—same delusion. Francis made a ‘veiled swipe at progressive democrats’.
Alternate reality.

Even in Freeper-world, spewing hate at the pontiff is considered bad form, thus the mental diversions.
