Today, we start a new tradition that brings some levity to an American holiday that is as controversial as it is beloved. Inspired by the tradition of satire that Hyperallergic has long been a part of, we’re offering up a smorgasbord of tasty delights that will take your mind off of the difficult family conversations you may find yourselves in today. And to all those beyond the borders of the United States who are looking at us with horror and shock at the car crash coming your way, if it hasn’t already … please, look away, it’s a family matter. 😉 May you all find peace with that uncle who hasn’t found a racist meme they won’t share, or that cousin who wants to explain why you should listen to that edgelord podcast they can’t get enough of, or even that loved one who takes the opportunity to drink far too much or convert you to whatever they believe in at this very moment. Take a breath. We see you. And here’s to hoping our crypto bro overlords will be kind to us in the coming year. Presenting our inaugural edition of what we’re calling Thanksgiving Stuffing, that uniquely American ingredient that somehow makes turkey stranger than it already is. Gobble, gobble.
