i always struggle when people are like “homosexuality is not a sin!!!”

cause the way i’m doing it? it definitely is

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

A few nights ago my sleeping mind found a scene from an alternate universe Richard Pryor movie:

he has to get as far as he can before making a break for it so he's got a decent head start.

with stuffed animals. They absolutely cover these guys in soft boxes of stuffed animals. The "race horses" then have to line up on the lawn outside and at the signal, race to the far finish line with as few stuffed animals falling out as possible. Pryor convinces someone to go take a smoke break and

a bunch of rich little girls are having a birthday party and the event they're having is dressing family members and servants up head to toe in a fuzzy-side velcro bodysuit with a horse head, then the girls put various sized fabric boxes covered in hook-side velcro all over them and fill the boxes

I had a dream that Richard Pryor was a vampire in a movie. He'd been caught sucking some lady's blood and was running around this massive Dynasty type mansion trying to escape all the frat boy types who were after him. It's daylight so he's stuck in the mansion, but he comes to a big room where

Y'know the new John Henry is someone cranking out furry porn at an unprecedented rate on only 6 ounces of water.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

Colored ink drawing of Orlando Jones as Anansi from American Gods.

This isn't recent work but I'm still proud of this drawing I did of Orlando Jones as Anansi/Mr. Nancy in American Gods.

Though the man’s killing had been filmed, a fact checker is obliged to seek comment from any party alleged to have committed a crime. I called the soldier’s lawyer. He picked up from a café, where I could hear trance music blasting in the background. The lawyer told me that while, yes, his client did shoot the man picking olives, and yes, the man did die, the Israeli military court found his client not guilty of murder because the man picking olives was a terrorist who was throwing stones. Even though the video did not show the Palestinian man throwing stones, the court said that he was, so he was. QED, his client did not murder anyone, and it would be slanderous for us to say so.

if you read one thing today, make it this absolutely devastating piece from a fact-checker who quit the New Yorker

Your Momma jokes told by Jane Austen characters:
Your mama is so gauche that she loudly discussed the marriage prospects of her daughters at an eligible bachelor's ball.

Climate deniers in Trump administration be like.

Y'all gonna switch roles real fast.

Oh this is a good day.

Politicians aren’t nearly outraged enough at the Trump regime disappearing these students of color. I’m not qwhite sure why?? But I bet we’d hear a very different tune if these students had the complexion for protection.
