Thorsday Open Thread
Good Morning, It’s Thorsday
Your Thorsday Open Thread is up, running, and ready for business. It’s been a year to forget for the most part but we’ve finally reached the football stage of the year. I dropped Direct TV and cable so I won’t be able watch many Vikings games this year. I’ve toyed with the idea of getting NFL GamePass to watch once the game is done or going to a sports bar nearby, I’ll probably split between the two. Meanwhile we’ll carry on with our news and links full of crockpot recipes, nap strategies and beer recommendations; drop by for some fan wisdom, snark and it’s Thorsday - I was informed this is cultural appropriation, but I’m not smart and still don’t know what that means.
Around the DN since our last open thread:

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-Leave the gender hatred at the door
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.
With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on. Don’t forget to wash your hands, wear a mask, don’t be a jerk and Welcome Aboard!
