Go to a Restaurant for Thanksgiving Dinner. I'm Serious.
 
Maybe you're looking forward to it. Maybe when you hear the word Thanksgiving, your nostrils fill with the summoned scents of rosemary and sage, and you smile inwardly as you imagine bowls of cranberry sauce and boats of gravy and platters of poultry being ferried around the table from one generation to the next, with gentle elders and eager cherubim joining hands in a fellowship of food. Nostalgia for the most gluttonous of Thursdays is practically a national birthright, which means that complaining about our collective rite of homecoming is like committing an act of American heresy.

The Trump Impeachment Hearings Had a Gravitational Pull on the Democratic Debate Wednesday
 
ATLANTA—I swear to blog, at about the half-hour mark of Tuesday night's Democratic presidential debate, it all started to mix and blend in my head, and I expected Jim Jordan to burst through the curtains behind the stage, interrupting Andrew Yang's talk about the looming robotics gap, and yelling something about Hunter Biden and his army of kulak hackers. I believe that, by the end of the week, I will be in dire need of some serious deprogramming. Read More
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
'The Mandalorian' Has Blessed the Internet With Baby Yoda Memes. These Are the Best
 
Adorable, he is, so memes, you made. While The Mandalorian is an intriguing Disney+ show in its own right, no character has risen to internet superstardom quite like Baby Yoda—a technically unnamed 50-year-old baby who's just too damn cute to focus on anything else.

Joe Biden's Foot-in-Mouth Disease Was Working Overtime at the Atlanta Democratic Debate
 
In the pantheon of presidential debate clown show moments, nothing will ever measure up to Donald Trump's no-problem hands. But Joe Biden was determined to make his mark Wednesday night in Atlanta. He started off a bit rocky, with a couple moments in his opening answer where he seemed to short-circuit a bit. Then the ex-VP settled down well enough as the proceedings mellowed out into Very Civil Discourse. He spoke with some authority on foreign policy. Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders demanded that Democrats take on insurance and drug companies and then incredibly worked in a discussion of Palestinian youth unemployment. Pete Buttigieg started rattling off answers he clearly practiced extensively in front of the mirror. All was well. Read More

Elton John's Latest Outfit Is Proof That There Is a Secret, Stylish Cabal of Knighted British Celebrities
 
We begin, as all normal style-related stories begin, with a conspiracy theory. I have come to believe, over the course of the last week, that there is an underground society of knighted British celebrities devoted to the noble pursuit of getting a fit off. I know this because of the un-ignorable plethora of Sirs wearing very good clothes in public, a clear indication that this cabal is both 1) real, and 2) currently active. Read More
