Thanksgiving plans

[philstar22]

For fellow Americans (and anyone else who celebrates), what plans to you have for Thanksgiving this year?


My sister and brother will be here within an hour and are staying to Saturday. We'll do the traditional foods on Thursday with Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, and I don't know what else. Can't help with the cooking this year and my mom isn't doing too well, so I think we're going to go easier than usual on the food. I hope we still have corn casserole, though. That's my favorite.

Nothing, thankfully. We did our Thanksgiving last week so this week is just a four day weekend. Awwww yeah.

My husband and I are going to get pizza and beer and have a movie marathon (Star Wars, yay)! And I'm off work on Friday too so we'll probably just go hang out at our favorite sports bar and chill all afternoon. I'm looking forward to it, tbqh!

I wish I was doing nothing but instead I’m stuck in a family dinner with my mom, my niece, my super racist sister who likes to pretend she isn’t super racist, my hardcore alt-right nephew, and the two unluckiest foreign exchange students who don’t know the shitshow they are walking into

Re: Thanksgiving plans

[tabaqui]

My mom is on a visit here from NC, and so she, my two brothers, and I and my daughter will all be at my little brother's house, cooking and eating and having a fucking good time. :D (Well, Mom won't be cooking, she's past that now, nor will the Monstrous, but us three will.)

We have not had a dinner/holiday like that in years, i have not seen my mom in years, i just want to sit and talk and laugh and have fun. I'm going to stay with my brother for probably a week after, to visit with Mom more before she has to fly on back.

Re: Thanksgiving plans

I'm an expat, but I always do a huge "everybody I know and their brother" kind of party. Do a stuffed turkey and a giant stuffed pumpkin, and let everyone else contribute the rest as they like. I always make everyone sing jingle bells because it was originally planned for this holiday and that's just how I roll (this year I've recruited some children to ring bells - in harmony - with the guitar. If that doesn't make the transition between dinner and dessert memorable, I don't know what will.) Everyone is asked to state one thing they're thankful for from the past year.

Re: Thanksgiving plans

[rudehannibal]

Going to my grandfather's house for the first time in a long time. My grandfather doesn't know my wife is trans, so we're both super-nervous about going at all. My racist/homo/transphobic father will be there, along with his brother who will likely be the same to Karie, and my grandfather's partner who is sliding so fast into dementia that we don't know how to handle it. My racist/homo/transphobic brother and his horrible wife will NOT be there, so that's something. And we'll get to see the kids (that my lovely mother will be caring for while their parents go stand in line for Black Friday sales). Karie is 'not allowed' to see the kids because she's trans, but haha, they won't be there to stop us. So basically it'll be awful with the exception of my lovely mother.

We had an early Thanksgiving at my sister and brother-in-law's last weekend, because my brother-in-law has to work later this week.

But on Thanksgiving itself, we may go over to my aunt and uncle's for a few hours and hang out there. And on Friday morning my mom, sister, and I might go out for breakfast together.

Re: Thanksgiving plans

[(Anonymous)]

We already had our Thanksgiving celebration early so I'm just going to hang out and relax and enjoy the time off work. Might do some (online) Black Friday shopping and maybe do some baking or something.

Re: Thanksgiving plans

[greghousesgf]

thanks to the generosity of my sweet friend I'm going to this restaurant that does this AMAZING buffet every Thanksgiving. :)

Re: Thanksgiving plans

[(Anonymous)]

Same as we do most years. Dim sum for breakfast with all the extended family / family friends in the area, and then my immediate family is doing a laid back Thanksgiving dinner that night that were buying from a grocery store (except for the stuffing, I'm going to make stuffing)

Re: Thanksgiving plans

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't know you had a brother, unless he's your brother-in-law? That's cool.

It's just going to be me, my parents, and the pets this year. My parents are in charge of dinner, so while I know we'll have turkey, and hopefully stuffing, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce, idk what else. My mom mentioned green bean casserole, but idk that I've ever had it, so I'm excited to try it.

I'm really just excited to sleep in on Thanksgiving tbh.

Going to a restaurant with family. The place does a special Thanksgiving prix fixe menu. It's great - no cooking, no dishes!

What are the worst movie villains you've seen?

[(Anonymous)]

Not worst as in most evil. Worst as in terribly written.

RSVPs

[(Anonymous)]

How long do you generally wait between recieving an invitation and letting the party-giver know whether or not you're coming? I've done a yearly potluck-esque thing (I do the meat and vegetarian main dishes, everyone can bring sides or dessert) for nearly a decade now. And every year it seems people get worse at being able to shoot me a quick reply email to say if they're in or not. There's always half a dozen people who just can't be arsed to answer me until the day before - or even the day of, or even ... at all? they just arrive.

It's like, all I really want is a headcount so I can set the table and know if I need to borrow plates from my neighbor or not. I understand a day or two before you answer me while wou wait for plans finalize / work schedules to be set / etc. Answering "maybe, I'm not sure, it depends on X" is perfectly legitimate. But for anyhting else, OMG just say yes or no.

Is this a 'thing' I'm missing? Is RSVPing out? Are people afraid saying "no" is rude? Is everyone just hoping for a better party to be announced so they have an excuse?

What can you not wait to eat?

Nom nom nom.

Annoying fandom thing

[(Anonymous)]

I recently got back into one of my old fandoms. Last time I was into it, the content on tumblr included good/cute/funny fanart, fics, crack, gifs, intelligent discussion, etc.

Now I just looked at a few related blogs, and it's all:

- gay/trans headcanons (not shipping headcanons, but like "character A is obviously gay because he did/said [thing], etc. )

- jokes about how every character is gay and straight people or the creator themself are dumb to not realize this.

- sex position/sex role headcanons

BTW, I am not straight. I'm bi, but I find this stuff boring AF. And it's annoying that when someone does make some nice fanart or something it has >100 notes, but a post that's basically "straight women are so dumb for being attracted to [character], do they really think he's have sex with them??*" has close to 50,000 notes.

*I assume not, because he's fictional....

I hope all of you enjoyed your romaine lettuce in the US

IT IS ALL BAD! THROW OUT WHAT YOU GOT! IT WILL BE GONE FROM RESTAURANTS FOR WEEKS!

Has Tumblr always had fanfic? Where have I been?!

[(Anonymous)]

So a couple months ago I discovered a new OTP and became kind of obssessed. Kept checking AO3 from time to time for fic but there never was any and I just figured it was too much of a rarepair. Then tonight I decided to check out what was going on on Tumblr after not going on it for a really long time. After checking my tags, I decided to search for half of my new OTP to see if maybe I could find some cute pics or something, honestly not expecting to find anything, and...there's fic?! It didn't even occur to me that there could be fic! I mean, I've seen links to AO3 on Tumblr, but not fics themselves posted just on Tumblr. There are only a few and I don't know if they're any good because I've been too busy freaking out to actually read it, but still, it exists! It's all written by the same person, who also wrote a post lamenting the fact that there seems to be no one else shipping this pairing, and I don't know how Tumblr works but I kind of want to be this person's friend now lmao.

Second comment, tw for mention of self harm, suicidal ideation and depression stuff

drink experiments

[(Anonymous)]

So I recently discovered sparkling sake. And I started wondering what I could mix it with (is this heresy in the sake community?) and found some elderflower lemonade (Belvoir Farms if you want to look it up) and it's actually pretty delicious.

Considering trying the lychee sake next time I go to the store.
