I've basically been writing this in my head since I was 10, but now it's finally time to unleash it on the world. My book about the golden age of The Simpsons comes out on June 10. Preorder STUPID TV, BE MORE FUNNY here. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/alan-...

i think it is cool that de facto first consul of the united states is a drug-addled maniac and deadbeat dad with a breeding fetish

Life is pretty shitty right now, but for an hour, watching this made me relax, actually smile and somehow become a Portland Trail Blazers fan. Do the simplest bit of self care possible and watch this.

I need abled people to understand that breaking someone's wheelchair is like breaking your legs. Both of them. They want to get away with breaking people's legs.

"The richest man alive, an actual Nazi and a fucking sicko, who was not elected, is firing tens of thousands of people to further enrich himself and the president he has usurped all to make Americans' lives worse" has to be among the biggest layups of all time for messaging. And yet.

Elon Musk is an idiot on an almost inconceivable scale. He had his high-school toadies pull a random list from a database he doesn’t understand, and on that basis alone decided that 60 MILLION SOCIAL SECURITY ENROLLEES, out of 72 million total, are fraudulent. 83% fraudulent!

hey so veteran protester opsec advice here: leave it at home and if you really gotta have one buy a burner and PAY FOR IT WITH CASH.

It's hard not to love big game hockey.

It’s high time we start being honest about what’s behind a lot of the push towards “wellness”. It’s ableism and eugenics. Its scared people who can’t face the fact that they could lose their health at any moment. It’s people who desperately need to cling to control. 🧵

Oh, I got this one: It's about how in 6th grade, they used to bully people for being fat, or nerdy, or smart, or dumb, or gay, or for being girls, or being Black, or for being immigrants, and then at some point somebody made them stop bullying and now they can again. It's Henry Bowers' masculinity

several million very fit young German boys are still rotting away in the Russian steppes because someone forgot to requisition enough coats and antifreeze

Harris’s plan to transfer long-term care from Medicaid to Medicare would have been a capital, embossed, etched-in-brass-A Achievement. A pity she was too committed to blowing up Arab kids to win so she could do it!

As others have said, the greatest transfer of wealth in US history will not be from the Boomers to their children but from them to the US healthcare system. The US is designed to make people insolvent and to keep them poor once they're there.

It won't happen until middle-class white families feel pain. I'm not talking about $10 eggs or DOGE rifling through Medicare records. More like "none of the gas stations in their neighborhood have gas". The pain will be a moderate inconvenience they've never experienced before.

Dallas fans have protested Luka being traded harder than congressional dems have fought a coup

This infrastructure and federal spending also built up Silicon Valley up from scratch

We’re so close to antisemitism being redefined as not supporting the construction of a Trump tower in Gaza

the only thing that would make a United States Senator do something like this would be a ban on them trading in the stock market

I think countries around the world should levy tariffs specifically on Tesla in response to US tariffs, as well as banning Twitter as a national security threat driving a wedge between our co-dictators may be the most effective thing they can do

Forever burdened by this knowledge, more so than usual

the fundamental divide between centrist Democrats and realistic people: the centrists still think Republicans are, in their hearts, good

if you look at a bad thing that happened and assume, evidence-free, that it's because a Black person got a job they shouldn't have, you're not a "DEI skeptic," you're a dumb gutter racist

democrats will continue to lose and lose and lose forever because leftists being rude online is "radical violence" but starving thousands of women and children to death is "policy" and guess which one they're committed to condemning

Jennings: This salute trutherism is outrageous.  Rampell: Do it right now on TV! If you think it’s a normal way to greet people, do it right now on TV. Why won’t you?!

The plan is to crash the economy to suppress wages.

John Fetterman’s a disgrace to the oaf community. He does not represent America’s lumbering buffoons, ham-fisted galoots, or men whose heavy footsteps are soundtracked by a tuba.
