It’s Thanksgiving in the US. Ideally, this is a time to reflect on your life and acknowledge the things you have to be grateful for. In practice, it’s an excuse to gather with family and overeat to an obscene degree.

This year, thanks to the COVID pandemic, many people are eschewing the gatherings. And, given the state of the world, it may seem difficult to think of things to be grateful for. But we hope that, whatever your circumstances, you’re having a safe and happy day. And we want you to know that we’re grateful for you, our readers.
