Thanksgiving in America can be a tumultuous time. Turkey deep friers are just waiting to burn down the house. Black Friday shoppers are milling outside of big box stores like coupon-loving zombies. Covid is still a thing. But perhaps scariest of all… it means a long night with family. 

Even the sweetest, most well-adjusted families are prone to fits of chaos during Thanksgiving dinner. Whether it’s the drunk uncle who decides passing the cranberry sauce means it is also time to pass on his favorite Fox News talking point, or the sister-in-law who makes passive aggressive compliments about the side dish you brought, Thanksgiving is all about surviving family.
