Car Talk with Martok is off this week for Thanksgiving and because I have COVID and am embracing the sweet release of death. Come back from my break and a day later get fucked. Come on.

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans out there. Hope your day goes great and you get much of the food. Send some Mashed Potatoes and Gravy my way. I’d kill for some right now.

    Attractive is pushing it. Did you know that all mirrors are sentient? That’s my theory anyway. They keep screaming in horror everytime my reflection hits one of them.

    Gay is accurate though. Very very gay.

    However there are tons of other users here who post more than I do lately. They deserve all the props. @ummthatguy@startrek.website and @negativenull@lemm.ee as an example. Not to mention my brothers from another mother, @The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website and @xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink and my sister from another… thing that rhymes with sister, @Lydia_K@startrek.website. Plus @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world and @FauxPseudo@lemmy.world who been posting more and more. Not to mention @jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org and @Blackout@kbin.social and @Spot@startrek.website and everyone else.

    I get way more praise than I rightfully deserve.

    Also I’m sure I forgot people. I’m sorry. My brain is on fire :(

      I’ve been posting from my archive of original content from years in Star Trek Shitposting. Eventually I’ll run out.

      Just got back from my family gig and saw this. Sure hope you get to feeling better soon. It seems a rough holiday is going around this year. We lost my cousin who was doing the hosting last week and it made for a somber get together. I have other friends and extended family who are dealing with difficulties too.

      I dearly hope everyone had a chance to enjoy themselves at some point and hopefully see or speak to some dear friends and family this year. The love and support of my friends/fam help me through some low times, even though I don’t have many physically close to me.

      Yours, and all the others you mentioned (and forgot), help me break from the bleak realities I need to disengage from, to re-energize a bit. There are some fantastic conversations I read over, sometimes pop into if I feel I can actually add anything to the conversation. My humor is hit or miss at home but, the shit here always hits right for me and makes me feel all warm and fuzzy while i piss down my leg laughing. And, curious glances after handing my phone over to see "What’s so funny?"Sometimes those distractions are exactly what I needed to be back on track and keep on trudging on.

        Thanks buddy. I’m sorry that your holiday wasn’t the joyous celebration it is supposed to be. The world really is slapping everyone around the side of the face lately and it’s not fair to anyone. You have my condolences, friend.

        I’m glad that I, and others, are able to help you escape the monotony though. It is nice to have a place to come and see (mostly) everyone being silly and chilling out. You definitely help a lot with that vibe. <3 So gotta give yourself props for doing that same favor to others, man!
