i dislike the origin of thanksgiving but the family time is worth it tbh

it's the only practical holiday. Winter is coming, so pack on the fat. Makes sense to me.

The origin of thanksgiving was wholesome. It's what happened after was what ruined it

The natives were so kind that they felt like they should give to the pilgrims

then the pilgrims* were like “that’s cool and all but fuck you “ afterwards

Small pox blankets

Pretty non white of them tbh

Celebrate the natives then

But command and conquer I guess.

aint the whole celebration about saying thank you?

Er I fucked that up. I'm tired niggas

idk

i think the whole thing was about sharing and giving

but without the help from the natives the pilgrims would’ve literally died off

mfw I find a 2 hour Paul Harrell video and he says he padded it out so that you can avoid talking to your relatives by saying your watching an "Informative presentation"

they're all supposed to mean a lot of things, but in reality it's just time off of work so that schedules can line up with family.

It was a way for the pilgrims to say thanks to the natives for helping them and well we all know what happened years later

I’m having thanksgiving tomorrow

Medical FIELD BOIZ

Nice

Oof

At least they will always be remembered

I'm not having thanksgiving because I'm a Bong : D

The laughter is fake, only the tears are real

It’s cool wife is making everything homemade and I don’t mind.
Had a Waffle House patty melt for lunch

@Duke of Txtspeak i mean you can always out retard them by larping as a full blown marxist

Well, considering I own a Ushanka with a hammer and sickle on it, I probably could do that too

Thing is even if we had thanksgiving here, I don't have a whole lot of relatives...

Ah

F

Like, I got my parents, my sister, my nan, a few aunts and uncles and that's it

that's plenty

Like, I only have 1 surviving grandparent

I've distanced myself from most of both sides. Mom's brother is a shit-bag, one of her sisters is cool, but a super leftie and fun to debate with, the other is an NPC. both of dads sisters are garbage people.

For a moment there, I was reading ushanka as Kalashnikof

All my aunts and uncles are just kinda... people

Nothing too noteworthy about them

dads sisters didn't show their colors until after their parents died

Dads side is way more chill than my mothers. Just about everyone gets along and usualy avoid any political bs. Mothers side avoids politics but they're way more unstable

@Duke of Txtspeak Are you a communist

Be honest with us
