Could someone make that joke today? Yeah, probably given the ease with which you can find t-shirts for the “Caucasians” sports team online. But, as you say, that’s satire, and satire can have legs. But that’s satire that “punches up”, as they say. Remember when Stephen Colbert got in trouble for satirically talking

While they’re at it, they should commemorate the great works of those members of the Taliban who succeeded beyond all expectations on 9/11.

He slapped Chris Rock on national TV, he should apologize to Chris Rock on national TV.

I hope Dave Chappelle was watching, though. Because apparently we have a new answer to the whole rhetoric of “can’t you take a joke?” and it’s violence!

I’ll offer an alternate take: the employers are only looking for a very specific set of hires. There may be a stack of applications on their desk, but they only want the naive (who won’t question working through their breaks) or people with cars (who can be scheduled whenever) or young people (see naive). Oh and add

Republicans in the chambers: “I am deeply aggrieved that the distinguished gentlelady from New York has seen fit to allow her American flag lapel pin to be off skew by, what I can tell from fifty feet away from her, a whopping 2.37 degrees! I demand an apology from her for betraying our deeply held standards! Why,

However, Ek also made it clear that “silencing” Rogan was not an option and that “in order to achieve our goal of becoming the global audio platform, these kinds of disputes will be inevitable.”

“Why are we sexualizing our precious children?”

Here’s an exciting world, here’s the story of talent, here’s the story of growth... whoops, and here’s a Beauty and the Beast narrative shoved in during the last half of the film. Complete with a dance scene that dances the line between “homage” and “rip off”.

At least he’s not offering NFTs...

Steve Harvey: “Political correctness has killed comedy. Every joke you tell now, it hurts somebody’s feelings. But what people don’t understand about comedians is that a joke has to be about something. It has to be about somebody. We can’t write jokes about puppies all the time.”

Yes, that’s what should happen. If you can’t find a wage that people are willing to work for, that will get people in your door to work for you, that’s the hand of the market.

So the jobs are essential, but the people who do them aren’t? So what happens when there are no people?

The word may be triggering but the reality is that it doesn’t take skill to pour coffee.

We all know the best way to recruit white supremacists is to eliminate any physical fitness requirements and offer gift cards to Chick-Fil-A. Oh, and free tiki torches.

Nah, I’m pretty much convinced that most mainstream porn companies have a production of [person recently in the news] doing porn ready to go at a moment’s notice. It’s like the free space on a bingo card.

I used to volunteer for a card game company when they came out to PAX West. I’ll never forget that my first year there (and theirs) was in 2016 and the Fortnite booth was adjacent to ours. It was kind of popular, they had a steady stream of players and every so often they had a drawing where a fan could hit a llama

My middle school (some thirty odd years ago now) had a very strict no-bullying policy... that never got enforced because the bullies told the principal that we were “roughhousing”.

And also Nya misinterpreted what they were saying because there’s simply NO WAY those two little angels could have imagined that people would think that they were being serious and not being... ironic? Sarcastic? They were using literary techniques to reveal the inner workings of...
