I stumbled across this atrocity[*], which if you chose to use it,
you'd deserve a kick in the pants:
lst.append("Value I don't care about and will overwrite")
var, lst[-1] = *func()
It's not quite one step, but at least the *assignment* is one step :-)

[*] my original discovery was
d = {}
for key, d[key] in (("this",18), ("that",17), ("other",38)):
print key
do_something(d)
but the same applies to a plain ol' assignment statement as to an
assignment in a "for" loop.
