A sloth

A goose

If we’re going to call the one in the left a “sloth,” then we really ought to call the one on the right a “wrath.” Fair is fair.

I read a book where a character was described as having a head shaped “like an upside down potato.”
I got so mad I threw the book across the street.
After a minute I went and retrieved it, but I’m still mad at the idea that potatoes have a uniform shape OR a right side up.

As someone who has lived here since the 90’s, I am unequivocally delighted that the city’s self righteous, performative whimsy has finally been weaponized into a force for good.

Ooh! I definitely will! I loved his stuff on Ghostly Haunts. Winnie the Witch rules.

Been reading some of his 60s Charlton stuff, and this Blue Beetle splash floored me.

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

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

That picture made me think for a second that Yo La Tengo guest starred on WKRP in Cincinnati.

When Hub and Sara get together it is an explosion of incredible people being silly. Listen or fix your heart.

An intersection of favorites!

I had such a great time talking with Sara (as I always do) about this weird-ass old comic that is near and dear to my heart! Check it out! And also, listen to the other episodes, because they’re all pretty great.

Thanks! It was fun to talk about a strange comic again!

@titanupthedefense.bsky.social Just wanted to say it was great to hear Hub on the "Best Issue Ever" podcast just now. I've really missed the show and it was such a nice surprise to get to hear him talk about strange comics again after so long. It really made me smile.

Practice? You’re talking about practice?

Using one photo already on your phone, what is the announcement tomorrow at 2?

I mean, you can’t argue with results!

Maybe I’m old fashioned, but I wish more modern ceremonies still included, “This marriage is not a HOAX! The bride and groom are not ROBOTS!” in the vows.
Could save a lot of heartbreak down the road.

Having just read the comic in question, I feel confident in confirming the accuracy of the adverbs chosen for the credits.

Increase a band: The Same Amount as Jake

When I was writing sketch comedy, I loved to set things in an office. The only problem was, I never worked in an office and do not know a single thing that happens in an office. I remember calling one of my friends and being like, “Do you file things? Is that a real thing that people still do?”

I mean, have we tried using Hostess cupcakes? Seems like it might be worth a shot.

Portland. July 10th. 8pm. Kyle Kinane, Shane Torres, @seanjordancomedy.bsky.social and myself are going to do a show at Polaris Hall to raise money for people being affected by these ICE raids. 100% of the proceeds going to charity.

A bar graph. On the left side is a bar showing that Republicans are cutting $930 billion from Medicaid. On the right side is a bar showing that Republicans are giving $910 billion in tax breaks to corporations under their budget bill, paid for by gutting Medicaid.

Republicans may lie about what's in their budget bill but the numbers sure don't.

Arch Oboler. A few years ago a friend of mine was researching him for a project and got me hooked on his episodes of Lights Out! I love old radio horror.
