NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Facebook is like my toilet. I have to have it, but I don’t stare into it.

Dear Mark Zuckerberg, Just so you know, I am not a Republican. Unlike modern day Republicans, I believe in the Constitution. I value personal liberty, the separation of church and state, respect for all people’s rights, privacy and freedoms. Even women!

Me too!!!!

If what you want is available on Amazon, it’s probably available someplace else. Preferably, the company that makes it. Jeff has enough money.

If a parent does not vaccinate their child and that child dies of a preventable disease, should that parent go to jail? “Just asking questions.”

Attention working-class Americans: Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security. Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

“First Measles death reported in Texas - The disease is rebounding in the U.S. amid falling vaccination rates. Measles was previously declared eliminated in the U.S. in 2000.” - Axios “We’re all Devo!” - Devo

Happy Twin Peaks Day

We can help shift the tide! Wisconsin must have fair electoral maps going forward. Answer Musk’s money with a blizzard of small donations. Give Musk the finger and support Judge Susan Crawford for the open WI Supreme Court seat. Our democracy depends on it. secure.actblue.com/donate/hrccr...

It's never good when the richest person in the world and the worst person in the world are the same person.

If they’re such “independent thinkers,” how come they all wear the same hat?

As an American citizen, I want to know what’s going in in my country. That’s why I don’t rely solely on America newspapers. Here’s some important news you may not find on CNN. It’s from Britain’s The Guardian.

Mitch McConnell could have stopped Trump dead in Jan. 2021, but was, “worried about the midterms.” An historic orgasm of shortsighted naïveté. Now, rejected by his own party, despised by everyone else, the once indomitable Machiavelli of the GOP shuffles offstage to silence. F#*! You, Mitch.

If you enjoy jokes about podcasts, boners and other aspects of modern life, please enjoy my new special, Perfectly Normal on YouTube. If you like comedy, but don’t want to look at me, the album is available on iTunes. LIVE 2/22 at The Blue Note Hawaii in Honolulu.

“I thought someone smart enough to play a businessman on a game show….”

They’ve changed their name to The Gullible Dildos.

Dana Gould - Perfectly Normal Special on YouTube Album on iTunes. Thank you.

It’s weird how we’ve memory holed the fact that Obama entered his first term with a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate and a majority in the House and McConnell’s response was “We’re going to make Obama a one-term president,” not “there’s little we can do”

Can you be # 7 with a bullet? Out now, wherever you get your audio.

See me LIVE this Sat, 2/22 at the fabulous Blue Note Hawaii in gorgeous Honolulu.

I know that nobody wants American troops involved in the war in Ukraine, but if England continues to oppose the will of Vladimir Putin, it is very very possible that America will be dragged into the fight against England. apple.news/AZoqLMRISQK-...

One of the best pieces I’ve read on a long while…

Perfectly Normal Out now. Wherever you get your audio. (Vinyl coming but not here yet)

More Chris Murphy. I was going to add less Chuck Schumer but Chuck seems to have that down.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social: "The question is can you work with Republicans in the middle of a constitutional crisis when democracy is on the line? And right now, I think that this crisis is serious and deepening in its seriousness, that our job #1, #2, and #3 is to save our democracy."

Yesterday I posted something mildly critical of Chuck Schumer because I want him to do better. My Facebook feed was instantly flooded with idiotic, right wing horse&$*%. “based on your interests” Mark, you already have enough beady-eyed trolls ruining the culture. No need to go recruiting.

It’s Valentine’s Day and thoughts drift to the night when I took Raquel Welch and Cloris Leachman to the Oscars. The evening started with great promise and ended with me on a gurney in Cedar’s new-at-the-time-but-since-defunct Amyl Nitrate Extraction Tent. I’m in love with love. That’s my crime!

Happy Valentine’s Day

I rode the back of the bus. I buried Dr. King. You want me to participate in your little hate-a-thon against some other group? Kindly kiss my black ass.

I remember when "What's the worst that can happen?" was a rhetorical question instead of a section of the newspaper.

He could have stopped all of this in January 2021. All of it.

Had a wonderful time and a delicious sandwich with David Wild and Phil Rosenthal on their excellent pod, The Naked Lunch talking about my adventures with The Simpsons, The Ben Stiller Show, Bob Hope, Sammy Petrillo, Mel Brooks… Did I mention Sammy Petrillo? www.spreaker.com/episode/dana...
