  BIG CUP: THE WEEK’S TOP STORIES

First the good news: the three men accused of murdering Ahmaud Arbery were found guilty, just in time for a somber but grateful Thanksgiving for his family. Jobless claims hit a 52 year low. Vaccinations remain plentiful and free. We’re out of Afghanistan. The stock market keeps breaking records. US wages had their biggest rise in 20 years. Tweets are just tweets again, not weapons of mass distraction.

All in all, given the state of things a years ago, I’d say it was a very good Thanksgiving indeed. Let’s leave it at that.
