Welcome back to Wednesday Links!
We are in December! Today is my dear brother’s birthday. He’s turning 28 and I get to visit him in Germany in March. Honestly, the only thing getting me through my holiday season right now.
How was everyone’s Thanksgiving, if you celebrated? The food at my apartment was delicious. Seriously, the juiciest dang chicken I cooked with the crispiest skin.

It’s holiday season, which means holiday romance movies are here! There’s a great list of diverse holiday movies you can catch this year.

I needed to read this tweet this week and maybe someone else does too.
A gentle reminder that the timelines people try to impose on you — get married before 30, write your bestseller by 25, have x kids before y age, buy a car by next week– they're all arbitrary. Death's the only deadline, the way you arrange the stuff before that is your business.

Don’t forget to share what cool or interesting things you’ve seen, read, or listened to this week! And if you have anything you think we’d like to post on a future Wednesday Links, send it my way!
I’m bot crying. You’re crying.
Also, what I’ve been loving this week is Dave Grohl (in general) and Greg Kirsten’s second annual (at least I hope so) Hanukkah Sessions. So far it’s been covers of Lisa Loeb, The Ramones, Barry Manilow (YES!!!) and today, Van Halen.
Honestly, I will never hear Lisa Loeb’s STAY without snort laughing again.
