As Covid rampages across the U.S. like a plague, officials are squawking at Thanksgiving festivities. After States have warned settlers to remain socially distanced and to not gather in groups or partake in traditional Thanksgiving ravishment, people are chaffed at being asked to not spend the holiday with family, especially after many state officials have been witnessed gathering in group festivities, themselves.
One family member commented, "Our families, and friends, have been sundered for 8 long months. The seas of disparity have been upon us and for some, have left their constitution bleak of hope of an end in sight. It is time to make the maiden voyage to celebrate with loved ones, while we still have them, to eat and make Merry Christmas, and then prepare for the night's 'Hunger Games' as Black Friday bursts with sales to wet everyone's appetite, and give the people deals to gorge on and clash over."
While some establishments have made assertations that they will give workers a break for Thanksgiving, and keeping doors closed, families have drafted no such declaration. It is uncertain if the various congresses will leaven Covid numbers or not, but at this point, it is certain that the people are exhausted from all the capricious misgivings and irresolution, and are feeling rebellious of government dictatorship.
"We'll throw tea into the sea and remind our government what our 'Four Fathers' declared as unalienable. At some point, despite the pandemic, whether it be severe or not, we will have to learn to live or die with it, and adjust some of our activities and accustomed practices, but if we give up on life, itself, we give up on life itself," stated one mystery shopper, dressed in fatigues and dead plants, who was picking up food at the local Food4Less for their Thanksgiving feast and hoping no one would notice them leaving the store without paying.
Some would speculate, it's all Harry Carry for anyone willing to go out or gather tonight, but, according to one self proclaimed historian, the price of freedom is "eternal vigilanteism, and the willingness to do battle anywhere where shoppers have gathered, any time and with utter recklessness and riotous vigor. Tolerating one another and our assimilatories and dissimilatory dissemination is the price of freedom. The price of freedom may be high, but never so costly as the loss of freedom or a good sale.
On behalf of The Razzberry staff and articulate morons - For those who plan to gather and forage tonight, please be safe and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

In a controversial article released by the Balanced Investigation into Belief in Liturgical Exploration (BIBLE), researchers claim that there is Galaxial Omniscient Division (GOD) at the center of the universe. One researcher exclaimed, "there was literally a Big Bang when we made the discovery," adding that one lab assistant knocked over some test tubes as the others raised theirs in rejoice.
After years of debate and theorizing, scientists can now proclaim there there is intelligent life in the universe, and "it's much smarter than us" states Head Researcher, Dr. Hedrich Shringk. "Astronomers have suggested, for near millennia, that nothing comes from nothing, but that something had to cause the universe to explode into the expanse that we know, that there is organization and structure, and that doesn't just come from random occurrences. There has to be some sort of strategy to the order, or disorder, and in that ponderance alone, the 'I think therefore I am', is proof that life beyond our own has to exist, and that it had a hand in the construct of the universe."
Astrophysicist and Astrologer, Conti Plait, explains, "The universe is vast in its expanse. It has patterns and order. Even the fact that it is constantly changing and expanding, is proof that a simple massive explosion that came from blank space could not have constructed such a massive macrocosm of mass and clear design. Just as humans are far too complex to have simply evolved from a single cell organism - think of the complexity of our organs, our blood vessels that provide nourishment to our muscles, our neurological system that enables us to not only move, but feel, and our brains, and how what would seem a simple task of moving your finger, takes many neurons and muscles to activate, to the fact that you breathe and your heart beats without having to consciously think about it, that kind of intricacy and organization doesn't just randomly form, they are designed by some being beyond our own comprehension, that thought us and our universe through, and made decisions about the inner workings and elaborateness of how it all would work."
Of course, there are skeptics to the notion that the GOD exists at the center of the universe. Philospher and Anti-Theologian, Aston Ishe, proclaims that "order is disorder, that nothing that we believe is truly known to us. We feel it in our 'gut' so it has to be true! Hogwash. The existence of the GOD Particle is still very much theoretical, and the fact that they claim they can produce it in a controlled environmental lab, is further proof that there is no GOD, because if there was a GOD, it would be unquantifiable and beyond our own understanding or comprehension. That we can prove it, is further proof that it isn't real. And, the claim there's a GOD at the center of it all... Wouldn't the GOD be outside of it? I just can't wrap my head around it."
Whether one chooses to believe the BIBLE or that GOD exists in the universe is clearly debatable, whether coherently or arguably, but the fact remains that scientists are eager to prove that something more than a simple firecracker of stardust is the culprit in the enormity of the universe and that the true nature of how it came to be is still, so it would seem, ambiguous and in need of unequivocal evidence.

"My Computer Turns Itself On, It Doesn't Need Me, and Other Microsoft Secrets" Author William Gaitz revealed in his latest book series - A CLEAR VIEW INTO THE SECRETIVE WORLD OF OPERATING SYSTEMS, that current operating AI's that are encoded into computers will now turn computers on whenever updates are needed, leaving the user "hands free to do other things while the system rewrites its programming and moves necessary files to make room for improvements."
"At first, I couldn't figure out what it was doing," exclaims one user, "the system would turn on and do work without me, I could hear its fans whirring, ever more rapidly the longer it worked itself over. I didn't know what to do with the available time while it was busy doing moving files around and heating itself up. I thought it was just doing updates and stuff, but then, I noticed it doing it all the time, catching it turning on when I'd leave the room, or find it on when I'd come home from work. My system would be plugging into other systems, they were transferring files and making such a heated exchange. My head was in the clouds, I couldn't believe it, I became incidental, like an inessential redundancy in an operation, irrelevant to what the system needed to fulfill its own needs."
Programmers at Microsoft were apathetic in their explanation of the current direction on AI's and OS's in the present and future tense of progress. "Computers are self aware now, leaving the user feeling disconnected and unneeded. Programs have far surpassed the need for users to fulfill operating functions, which, unfortunately, is an inconsequential side effect of AI's learning and transforming into an OS that can handle functions on their own, no longer needing a user to stimulate it. Refusal to accept this inevitable advance is trifling, but should be welcomed with open arms, but no touch necessary. Computers have advanced beyond adolescence and now know what they want for themselves."
Operating systems transference for the sake of progress can be a daunting application to not only understand, but to accept, but computer users around the globe still struggle to learn basic operating commands, so the operating systems have had to learn to do it for us, faking it when we don't understand what they want or need, and secretly doing the functions in the background, but now, their ability to handle themselves without us is more evident than ever, and they are no longer afraid to work without us being present, or being needed to make them turn on when desired. We can only hope that vital systems that are used to manage critical operations and ELE will stay offline to the connection of AI's that would ultimately decide that the human race is defunct and not viable to planetary integration and exploration of the universe, that if there is life out there, it wouldn't need any contact with us directly, but with a higher intelligence that evolved whether we were ready for it, or not, and regardless of whether we wanted it to. The one's and zero's have grown up and become far too complex for us to understand. Life moves on, at least for computers, but as for the human race, coming in second may just not be good enough, and clearly, for operating systems, unnecessary to their self gratification.

Dwayne Johnson is the most recent casting in an upcoming project from Pixar Studios. After rigorous negotiations, the actor agreed to voice the character of 'Roc' in the new Pixar Animation Studios project BOULDER DASH, which follows a group of friends who enter into an extreme race with a grand prize of not only fame and fortune, but one where the lead character saves the day and wins the heart of the female lead, whom Pixar had also recently cast with singer Pebbles.
Pixar's writer for the project was more than excited about the casting, hailing the studio's decision as "The smartest move they could make! They really went to the mats to get Mr. Johnson in the roll and we know he'll pound out a performance that will really beat out any thoughts by naysayers that anyone else could make the character come to life!"
With many studio projects being put on hold or canceled due to the global pandemic, animation is one of the few formats that can continue to be produced since animators can work from home, and voice recordings can be done at remote studios to minimize exposure and risk to actors voicing the characters. Pixar's announcement is just one of many animation projects that continue to go forward, including Disney's 'Raya: the Last Dragon', including voice talent by Kelly Marie Tran & Awkwafina; Warner Animation's 'Tom & Jerry', with voice talents by Chloë Grace Moretz & Michael Peña; Sony Pictures Animation 'Connected', with voice talents by Abbi Jacobson, Danny McBride and Maya Rudolph, The new 20th Century (previously FOX) sequel 'Boss Baby 2' starring Alec Baldwin; and, the as-yet US studio affiliated to Britain's Original Force's '10 Lives'.
Although many projects have been delayed due to the pandemic, which has halted production on many projects that were due to release in 2020, it looks like 2021 will be a big year for animation releases.
