Yes, that one - opinionated, sarcastic, ex Red Hat, ex Facebook, etc. ad nauseam.
Thanksgiving: survived.
My daughter and I put off buying her a new gaming laptop, partly with Black Friday in mind. Goal was to find something with the required specs under $1000. Didn't find any until earlier today, and now there are two. Asus TUF Gaming F15 at B&H and Acer Predator Helios at BestBuy, in case anyone's curious.
Happy "the recipe that looked great before is now obviously impossible to follow" Day to all who celebrate!

Me, seeing a cat “making biscuits” now that I know more about baking: oh no sweetie you’re kneading too much those are gonna be real flat
Optimist: The glass is ½ full.

Tonight I finished @maddow’s new podcast Ultra. This powerful warning shot, this unearthing of the threat of American facism in the 30s& 40s is required learning for this moment. There has been a dress rehearsal for what we are facing. We’d best learn. I strongly encourage you to listen to all 8 episodes. The parallels are stunning. A reminder that we’ve fought this before. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rachel-maddow-presents-ultra/id1647910854?i=1000586931428

I always get a bit annoyed by seeing Wall Street analysts' or VCs' takes on the broader economy. Sometimes it's obvious that the person is trying to influence the market in the direction they've already betted on (e.g. Jamie Dimon every week). Other times it's obviously just a game to them, they'll be absurdly rich regardless, even though their flippant words could affect others in more tangible ways. We need more guillotines.
Reached 900 miles (running, for the year) today. Only 100 to go, and 38 days to do it.
