I don't use any of these suggestions, but the ones I keep hearing are Quik and Fossify Messages.

The front page is so commercially neutral, and then you have this banger in the product catalog.

At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus...

I hate the implication that these pillows actually exist somewhere out in the world.

We pick a different dish every year for our main.

That sounds actually awesome.

It was fantasticly coffee

I have no idea what that means, but it still sounds pretty good.

Discord-compatible (Use all your custom clients/bots with minimal changes)

I was excited at first, because I thought I could still chat with friends who won't leave Discord.

Try telling that to your mother who's been handling the turkey for decades.

You get what you get and you either like it or you shut up and pretend that you do, because that's your mum and she's tired and hasn't seen you in weeks and turkey is always a little dry, trust me I know, I've been doing this since before you were born, eat it with some cranberry sauce, have you seen your cous...

I can and have cooked turkey for myself.

I have "won" at turkey.When I lived on my own and worked in the restaurant industry, I took it as a point of pride to figure out how to do it well.

I tried brines, but found that simple salting and leaving it on the bottom shelf overnight was easier and just as effective.

And that cutting it up and cooking each part via sous vide was a more reliable way to cook the meat to an even tenderness.

And that I could still brown the skin on a cast iron pan on high heat afterwards.

And then experiment with sauces and dressing and spices because that's where a lot of the flavor and fun came from (for me).

And then decided it just wasn't worth it. Not when I can cook a chicken, a duck, and a Cornish hen for half the effort.

If you want to go through the effort and expense of doing it because that makes it special to you and you enjoy it, more power to you.

But Thanksgiving seems more like ritual torture for the vast majority of people who do it because we collectively accepted that it's "what you're supposed to do".

I support your right to love turkey at any level of doneness.

I should have specified that it's not worth it to families (or grocery store employees) to collectively pressure everyone in the country to buy a turkey during the same one-week period.
