A few years ago I got to play a show at Cal Academy right by Claude’s enclosure and would like to retroactively consider it a performance FOR Claude

RIP Pale King

Beloved Academy icon will be dearly missed.

Interesting how as the racial demographics of who died of ODs shifted to white people it went from "Darwin awards" and "Just say no" to "We need to murder every single person even approaching the united states that we suspect of having drugs".
Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."

Yesterday Trump hung it on Hegseth and today he’s putting on some Admiral. And that’s why fascism is also funny.

It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend

With his new comedy show and debut novel, is it time to let Louis C.K. force women to watch him masturbate again?
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

Louis C.K.’s Next Chapter
In a new standup special, and a début novel, the comedian navigates murky, post-#MeToo terrain: not quite exiled, not quite welcomed back.

"oh, don't forget to highlight, in bright red, the two-letter word in the tagline! the two letter word that's kind of the whole point of this clever ad campaign! the two letter word that links this show to the horror movie of the same name!"
