How do I have the Thanksgiving stomach ache BEFORE Thanksgiving?

This Week's Thanksgiving Dessert: Blueberry Banana Cream Pie

One of mom's specialities. Super easy to make, and very tasty. Had a wierd issue where my blender kind of refused to actually, you know, blend it all (it wouldn't mix the whipped topping...it just kinda stayed on top like oil and water no matter how I "pushed it down"). But after some stirring it all incorporated.

Okay, YouTube, I've tried to be nice. I've been letting ads play when they're relevant to me, skipping them when they're not, and blocking them when they're offensive.

They're now ALL offensive. And to send me one that begins with an anti-trans statement? Ad Blocker getting installed RIGHT NOW.

Internet Ad: "Hey, here are some fashion tips to help larger girls look less chunky...."
Jenn: 😀
Internet Ad: "...and show off you natural curves!"
Jenn: 🤬

Really frustrated by the job hunt. Eleven months now, and my savings is draining. I've put in well over 125 resumes, only had five interviews and the rest is all rejections or ghosting.

I've rewritten it, had a professional resume service rewrite it, had the unemployment agent rewrite it, and now I rewite it again for every job I apply for (which is no easy task).

When I got laid off, I kinda banked on being out of work for two years based on my time in the dot com crash, but I'm starting to see folks getting work. Is the job market still really ugly? Or is it me: a near-50 year old woman trying to get work in tech?

If you live in the US, over the next few days, take a moment to recognize the privilege of being able to sit down to a large meal with your family or friends.

The odds are the you may not know their situation, but you probably know someone who will be spending this week alone, and without much to eat.

Call your local food bank. Ask them what they need. Reach out to friends you haven't seen for a while, ask if they have somewhere to go for the holidays.

True gratitude is shared. Be thankful.
