And I have to wonder how many immigrants and/or undocumented workers had to spend their holiday serving all of those a-holes....

And cooking and cleaning

Oh gawd FLASHBACKS. I wasn’t undocumented, but when I was young I spent a few years working for rich, privileged assholes like these and OMG was it bad. (And the rich assholes I worked for were showbiz people, so… mostly Democrats. I can’t even imagine how exponentially worse this MAGA scum must be.)

I never want to see his face again and just thinking of his constant presence post-January makes me sick. But after reading your commentary, I couldn’t resist viewing the video. And now I actually am sick. I did love your commentary, though!

Well, NOTHING says Happy Thanksgiving like The Village People blaring while you eat! 🤯. Is there NO ONE in Turd's life to tell him "YMCA" is a GAY ANTHEM?? NO ONE to show him the (excellent) video?

He wouldn't believe them, because if he wants it to be his song, the fact that it is sung by an group of openly gay men, and has since become a gay anthem, means nothing. He will continue to ignore 40+ years of reality and WILL it to be about HIM, the same way he is WILLING tariffs to have the outcome he expects them to have instead of the reality that the cost will be borne by the American public. When reality plays out, he will find someone or something to blame it on, and his cult will, once again, believe it because he said it.

Same as it ever was...

He probably knows. I think it reminds him of the time in his life when he was happiest. Single, snorting coke and chasing women at Studio 54, and his father still alive to keep the Trump Org solvent while Von Clownstick acted as the public face of the company.

Now his followers, OTOH 😆 I was a kid when the song came out and got what “you can hang out with all the boys” meant, but I can see that sailing over all their heads.

Yeah, I’ve wondered how he’s managed to avoid that knowledge. Along with the knowledge of how tariffs actually work.

It speaks volumes about the MAGATS that they either don’t know what “YMCA” represents, or they do and think they’re owning the libs by playing it all the time. This is the most dysfunctional Thanksgiving do I’ve ever seen, and we’re the black sheep liberals of my husband’s family, some of whom no longer speak to us.

Where's Vance? Superseded by Elon, I guess.

Good question. Others have jokingly called Elno the VP-elect, or maybe they are only half-jokingly calling him the VP-elect. My guess is that Vance can't stand these assholes, even though he's an asshole himself, and biding his time until the traitor croaks, and he becomes the president.

Vance lying low to avoid total stain…he is repulsive but crafty. He will keep low profile til his turn comes and then can distance himself from the most extreme crazy

Yep. That’s what he’s doing. He’s completely creepy and scary in his cunning.

Decided to take advantage of the Black Friday sale and upgrade to paid. It's another way to stick it to the corporate owned useless media.

ETA: This is my opening salvo in 2024's War on Christmas.

This is the most pathetic thing I’ve seen since the reporting on Michael Jackson’s Christmas celebration a few years ago. Such sad, fake, empty perversion of an American holiday traditionally centered on family, friends and good will to all, is sickening.

I don't, he's the one who told his dad to go on all the Incel podcasts to appeal to the young male creeps who put him over the finish line. He is a white nationalist just like the rest of them.

Ta, Evan. I'm deciding between making pumpkin panna cotta and pumpkin pie. We had carrot cake for dessert last night, but I have everything I need to make the baked custard or the pie, and stuff to make vegan whipped cream, also too.

would you be happy sharing your vegan whipped cream recipe?

Zyxomma's avatar

It didn’t work and I threw it out; I used an unfamiliar brand of coconut whipping cream that was pre-sweetened. It’s compost now. USUALLY, I refrigerate a can of full fat coconut cream (or coconut milk) and whip only the solids, the liquid can be used for other things. When it’s soft peaks, I add vanilla bean powder and powdered organic sugar (when I don’t have powdered sugar on hand I make my own in the food processor attachment for the stick blender). The best whipping tool is the wire whisk attachment for the stick blender. I left it downstate. Fortunately, we had a can of Reddi-Wip nondairy (made of almond milk) in the fridge. You’ll get the best results when you chill not only the canned coconut cream, but your utensils as well.
