Why is Thanksgiving Friday “Black”? | wkpd
More than twenty years later, as the phrase became more widespread, a popular explanation became that this day represented the point in the year when retailers begin to turn a profit, thus going from being “in the red” to being “in the black”.

update Dec.14 Painting Marginotions Black
I have a suspicion that criticism of WordPress elicits a mild form of censorship; blacklisted from appearance on WordPress Reader. It’s just a guess, I’m too much newbie here to understand how this place really works. So today I’m moving a critical piece here. Not backing off entirely, it’s going into hiding.
Reprehension of Themes, WordPress

Marginotion Op-Ed Reprehensing WordPress ‘themes’
I recently acquired a free blog account under the generous auspices of WordPress.org, but have issues regarding one of the features, “themes”. For the newbie, they are not presented in a user-friendly manner, so I suggest this Marginotion concept to remedy that blemish.
An immigrant from Reddit, which has a simple display paradigm using the Markdown syntax, WordPress themes are a huge upgrade in technical capability, but likewise requiring more knowledge of the user.
My current opinion is to delete theme selection from the application process, since some applicants are likely clueless like me, as to what they are or can do. Instead, the new account should have a default theme that looks like a search-engine list display. This is a familiar theme, using no margins, san-serif text, black on white background, images according to WordPress built-in processor Gutenberg, and with links highlighted in blue, which turn purple when accessed.
Once a new user has a functional account, he/she then has account management page “My Home”, which includes Site Tool buttons “Customize theme” and “Change theme”. These should be replaced by 2 buttons, “Themes” and “Plugins”. Upon accessing theme option, the user should be provided menu options: “What” (describing themes in detail), “How” (shopping for themes according to user’s desired features (check-boxes, including a paid subscription items check-box), finally the original theme selection options customize and change to a different one.
As for Plugins, I’m still clueless, so no comment for now (Nov.30.2019), but would probably recommend a similar treatment as for themes.
Why this? Because the intro page is not optimal, in my opinion. It should be titled “Introducing WordPress, for the gullible and clueless”.
On the Bright Side, kudos for the WordPress page “Reader” which is a sort of default search similar to YouTube’s video option list (which is marvelous). But why the emphasis on Longreads?
I have a suggestion for the Reader page too. Besides the standard search tool offered at the top of that page, there should be something more sophisticated than “Followed Sites”. User might have a customized automatic search option via which user completes a default preference list by language, tag, age, location, etc., (changeable at any time). When choosing ‘autosearch’ the regular “Reader” aggregator is replaced by whatever WordPress links can be found according to user’s chosen preferences.
Sorry if my opinion is not liked. I’m very accustomed to that response, since my niche is marginal stuff. Kudos to WordPress for not accounting for “dislikes”.
