havekidslaughmore:


My grandma is old, my mom and step-dad are still out of sorts post-Covid on Thanksgiving. My sister just had a divorce and works full time and she gets her kids Christmas day.


So I offered to make Christmas Eve dinner at my home, and bring the bulk of Christmas dinner food to my sister’s. As much as I love to cook, I am tired.


But everything is prepped and ready to go! I lived in this kitchen for 2 days.


A small turkey and sides tomorrow, and ham and lasagna for Christmas. We always had lasagna growing up with our Italian mom, so it’s nice to bring this one back. The kids get a little “meated out” this time of year. We got a small ham too, because who doesn’t like a glazed ham? Grandma wanted a ham. Grandma gets a ham.


I’m going to feast this weekend!


Gifts are wrapped, too.



You are a champion.

I mean, I was going to make a joke about doing god’s work, and then follow it with a whole bit about how there is no god…

But, you are a champion for doing this. Family matters, tradition matters.

So, y’know, maybe it’s not god’s work. Maybe it’s just work. It’s emotional work that matters. And you’re doing it.

May Baphomet bless you.

christmas eve what about christmas adam


happy christmas adam to all men’s rights activists



Please stop pestering us with things like this. This has nothing to do with men fighting for their rights. Eve is short for ‘evening’. Please don’t turn activism into a joke. Thanks.



Someone isn’t having a good christmas adam



Christmas Adam: December 23rd. Comes before Christmas Eve and is generally unsatisfying.



Happy Christmas Adam everyone


Meanwhile, over on Mastodon…

In the 15 years I have performed improv, I have had my neck “broken” so many times. It was a dream come true to have it broken by Colin Mochrie​. Also, look at all the reactions in the background!


Special thanks to Blake Schmidt​ for these pictures.

It’s pretty simple: Google Meet (original) was previously Meet, which was the rebranded Hangouts Meet. Meet has been merged with Google Duo, which replaced Google Hangouts. Google Duo has been renamed Meet, and Meet has been temporarily named Google Meet (original), for clarity https://t.co/Wa3wkj5nqE— Tom Gara (@tomgara) November 2, 2022ALT

To be clear, the merger of Google Meet (original) and Google Duo has no impact on Google Chat, the app formerly known as Google Hangouts, which replaced Google Talk, often mistakenly referred to as Gchat— Tom Gara (@tomgara) November 2, 2022ALT

As some have noted, Google Hangouts was replaced by both Google Chat and Google Duo. To be clear: Google Chat launched as Hangouts Chat for Google Workspace (formerly G Suite). Google Duo replaced Hangouts in the suite of Google apps for Android (not to be confused with G Suite)— Tom Gara (@tomgara) November 2, 2022ALT

reblog if the first musical you listened to was not Hamilton


for the love of fuck no



For me, it was the movie version of Jesus Christ Superstar…..if that counts. Wait, does The Wiz count? I use to watch that as a kid.



Evita because it was the high school musical and I was in the pit band.



Grease



A Funny Thing Happened To The Way To The Forum



Man of La Mancha



Les Mis
