Do you do Black Friday shopping? Let’s chat in the comments!
I don’t do Black Friday. To me, it’s hell on Earth. I’m more of a Small Business Saturday or Cyber Monday person. But really, I’m a shop-online-whenever-I-need-to-buy-something person. I’m skeptical of sales, especially Black Friday. More on that below.

👇🏽 I’m with everyone else on this: Black Friday should be about basic needs from now on. Gimme that 75% off my mortgage! What do you think? 👇🏽
Extremely Serious Deals and Food Holidays: Black Friday Nothingness
Seriously. Why doesn’t Black Friday include more food? I only found deals at Wienerschnitzel and Hooters. And let me tell you . . . I’m resisting so much temptation to tell a litany of dirty jokes.
- Today, 11/24 is National Sardines Day, and this is all I have to say about that.
- 11/26 is National Cake Day, so enjoy!
Some food stuffs of interest:
- Frosty Key Tags are back!
- Jet Pizza has a 20% off deal.
Bonus Randomness: If You’re Gonna Spend Money . . .
- What are you reading?
- Which book should I purchase next from my wishlist?
- Last night, I almost quit the romance novel I’m reading. I won’t name it again. The fatphobic nonsense is taking me out of it, and I dislike the main character. It’s also weird how the author both calls out stereotypes but also uses them. Like there’s a Black female assistant (cough), but she makes a sarcastic comment about being an “angry Black woman.” Meanwhile, she’s described as “sassy.” I mean, really? But I’ll finish the book.
- Why not name the book again? Because I’m a writer with a fragile ego, and I’d hate to see that written about my own work.
- Speaking of which: NSFW! Read my new erotic short story that one reader called “effing hot“! 18+ ONLY!
- If you enjoy anything on this blog, please consider buying me a chai!
- I gave up on my 500-word-a-day writing project.
- Recs
- Thanks to Respondent, I’m able to afford an end-of-year massage!
- If you’re gonna enjoy Black Friday, ENJOY Black Friday with up to 70% off at Geeky Sex Toys!
- Like I said, I’m skeptical about Black Friday sales. Although NPR and additional data says the deals are still good, I haven’t seen anything truly compelling for a few years. Although I haven’t fully vetted it yet, I find services like Honey more beneficial when it comes to saving money.
