Oh them being siblings doesn't mean it's just okay, but (most) siblings are close enough or care enough for each other that such questionable actions are less offensive because they can trust each other to not act with intentional malice.

This largely depends on how dysfunctional your family is, --in some cases-- if one or more siblings has bothered working through any of the childhood crap, and in other cases if the one who got bipolar disorder and is borderline schizophrenic has acknowledged either and gone to a psychiatrist for help[1].

So this year we put our foot down and divvied up the tasks 😉

Everybody helping definitely helps. Learning how to cook your favorite dishes is also nice. So much knowledge has been lost already, so hang on to some of it is good. Even if it is just the perfect stuffing recipe. :lol:
[1]We all three got the hereditary depression issues, one's also boarderline schizophrenic (amongst other undiagnosed issues), and somehow I managed to be the only one w/o bipolar disorder. Yay just being depressed! ....Wait. Shit.
EDIT; I've been recently informed that my older brother only has mild depression. Apparently the mood swings were bog-standard alcoholism. Thankfully he quit drinking.

Yeah, that's why I added the (most). I've got three siblings myself but my oldest brother and I just do not get along at all. We're both autistic but our individual traits are completely at odds. I'm strongly inclined towards neurotic tics and he's sensitive towards stimulation. The other way around he appears to be somewhat lacking in reflexive empathy and I react very poorly to what I perceive as egocentrism.

Hey, this year being already depressed turned out to be an advantage - I already had all the survival skills I needed to cope with isolation. “Got the corona blues? I have so much to teach you about getting through it!”

Things I'm thankful for......
Well, my depression is usually manageable w/o medication.
I'm too stubborn to die, so no suicidal thoughts.
Mods that correct my periodically botched thread titles (thanks pwhodges/Cold :-D)
And forumites that tolerate my inane ramblings.

This is true. Though there was a pointed where I probably should have beenon antidepressants in March and October.

Looks like a "Friends" Thanksgiving episode to me. Which, by the way, are the only things that make me be aware of Thanksgiving, besides Jeph's OMG Turkeys comics.
