So today is America's pretty little annual lying-fest. Idgi anyway and now it seems more ugly and disgusting than ever, and gives me equally ugly thoughts about Nemesis walking in veiled and uninvited. Petty.

I am tired and thinking about gods, deserts and Solanas.

Something someone dug up on Alas:

More accurately, I am afraid of what Thanksgiving tells us about both the dominant culture and much of the alleged counterculture. Here’s what I think it tells us: As a society, the United States is intellectually dishonest, politically irresponsible, and morally bankrupt. This is a society in which even progressive people routinely allow national and family traditions to trump fundamental human decency. It’s a society in which, in the privileged sectors, getting along and not causing trouble are often valued above honesty and accountability.

That, right there, is Americans in a nutshell.
