[] Itâs the day of the show, yâall. This is it. The day weâve all been waiting for. The day when we hop on an intimate Zoom call and day drink till no one argues with you when you ask to put on Kenny Gâs Christmas album. Just kidding, Iâm not putting on Kenny Gâs Christmas album⦠Unless⦠How are you doing? Are you excited that itâs a holiday and you have something formal to give your life some structure? Are you angry at a family member for doing indoor dining at Carrabba's at the mall? Are you sad there were no more organic turkeys left and you had to get a Butterball instead? Whatâs that? How am I feeling? Well, Iâm just excited to be talking to you, and that I get to have a martini as soon as noon hits. I wish I had some of those cocktail olives that are filled with things? Blue cheese? That is absolutely disgusting and I love it. Todayâs Thrillist has some tips on how to support the Indigenous American population, a list of all the restaurants that are open today, some incredible fall ciders, a list of all the best Thanksgiving episodes of television (sad to see Dawsonâs Creek didnât make the list, but also glad to see that The Sopranos did), and a list of all the grocery stores that are open today (say thank you to the people working, or you are going to hell). Iâm off to fill a glass with gin and olive juice and pretend that that makes me sophisticated. Then, itâs meat and carbs till sleep. I am thankful for you, Thrillist newsletter subscribers. I donât know you very well, and I know we canât be together, but just know⦠I am proud of the people youâve become this year. I think you are really blossoming into incredible homebound nutjobs. And for that, you deserve so many Thanksgiving raviolis. (Iâm a quarter Italian, so I can say that.) Mangia! [-Ned Riseley, Newsletter Contributor]( [ [( news [] [Thanksgiving Is a Politically Complicated Holiday...]( Every year when Thanksgiving comes around, we must reckon with the complicated history of American colonialism. We are not so naive to the fact that the image of the Pilgrim and Native American breaking bread together at a big table is NOT the full story. For those of you looking to grapple more actively with the political quandary of colonialism and the ways it has harmed the American Indigenous community, might I recommend reading this article about ways to give back to the Indigenous population? Put down that turkey leg and give back, goddamnit! [] [Places to Donate]( [( [( news [] [Thanksgiving at Buca di Beppo]( I love this one. I love imagining the person who needs this article, because it sounds like someone I can relate to. Thanksgivingâs come around and you literally still have no idea what youâre going to eat. You havenât made a reservation, youâre staying put, the only thing in your fridge is a thing of Sriracha and a few lemons that have shriveled into mostly peel. Itâs time to go out! Embrace that mess and be that big old mess that you are! Screw Thanksgiving! Itâs a colonialist fantasy anyway! While you squares get all dressed up for your âturkey special,â Iâm gonna go to Ruthâs Chris Steak House and order a filet! Actually, for your information, all of these places have Thanksgiving specials. [] [Check Please]( [(

This beautiful list gives you some ideas for what to watch on this day of turkeys, and where to watch them.

A lot of stuff is open! You could be at Kmart right now! (But only if you absolutely need to.) If you do go out, though, you really need to promise me that you will look everyone who is working today in the eyes (over your well-placed mask that is) and thank them (at a distance) for working today!
