Yes, you’ve got a TON of errands to run before you take some time off/host a lot of people/travel for the holidays/hole up in your house and binge-watch the new season of You/rage for the end of a decade. But read something first!
We had a great chat this week about the charitable organizations you’re supporting this year!
THANK GOD, the Hater’s Guide to the Williams Sonoma Catalog is ALIVE AND WELL. [Vice]
Amazing, at The Atlantic: The Rise and Fall of an All-Star Crew of Jewel Thieves. “They were highly sophisticated. The local police seemed helpless. Then a retired septuagenarian detective stepped in.”
This was VERY amusing at Vulture: The Plot of Cats: A Lesson in Garbage and Craft
Lainey weighs in on Emma Watson skipping almost all of the Little Women events.

Relevant to my personal interests, at Refinery29: We Ranked The Grey’s Anatomy Christmas Episodes
This is good, at WaPo: The demise of formal nights on cruises: How dress codes are tearing passengers apart. (I mean, my personal motto is that a cruise is the perfect place to commit murder and you should never go on one unless that is your goal, anyway.)
FESTIVE, at Atlas Obscura: Every Year, Dresden Kickstarts the Christmas Season With a Four-Ton Cake
At The Mary Sue: I really need JK Rowling to just not talk anymore.
