For a little context, it is tradition in my family for me to prepare the Thanksgiving turkey, and it's a job that I take a little too seriously.
For all of the context, search for the #TheSagaofGary or #TheSagaofFred, find the first instances of those hashtags, tap on the Show Thread link below them, and scroll all the way to the top.
I apologize in advance.
What started with #TheSagaofGary and continued with #TheSagaofFred is about to become a new, as yet untitled saga about an unmet bird who has probably met its demise and is now chilling in a grocer's freezer as I type.
Will it be better than those? Probably not. Will it be as stupid? Definitely. Will it be as random and perplexing? I'd guess so. I would defer responsibility, but it's definitely my fault.
And so it begins. Turn away if you aren't into eating dead birds.

Do you remember the "It gets better" campaign for LGBTQ youth, from years ago?
I can't say this and believe it, anymore.
We need a new campaign to bolster and support youth (and any others) who feel terrified and discouraged by this political turn in the US.
You belong.
You matter.
You are wanted.
You are not alone.
Please stay in the world.
