I somehow did not realize this was a book, having just watched the adaptation a few weeks ago. It was fantastic. And, if I'm being honest, I'm not sure that I have the courage to read it.

The Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile title screen

The Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile title screen

A very big Onion announcement:

The Onion has spent the last two months working on a masterpiece.

It's a documentary titled Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile.

It's so good, in fact, we were set to release it in theatres nationwide on October 2nd.

Then two weeks ago, Charlie Kirk was shot.

Congress, now more than ever, our nation needs your cowardice

I have sent a copy of β€˜The Onion’ to every member of Congress. To spread its message to less powerful people, I have also taken out an ad in a lesser newspaper. Read my full letter here: theonion.com/why-im-sendi...

The Onion NYT ad. The headline of the editorial says β€œCONGRESS, NOW MORE THAN EVER OUR NATION NEEDS YOUR COWARDICE”

EXCLUSIVE β€” The Onion has a full-page ad in today’s NYT featuring part of an editorial calling out congressional fecklessness towards Trump. They also sent a copy of their latest issue to every lawmaker.

My report, with an excerpt from the full editorial: www.thehandbasket.co/p/exclusive-...

If I told you how long I've dreamed of an animated newswire on theonion.com, you'd probably believe me but we'd both be embarrassed to have discussed it.

Truly horrific. I suspect we'll continue to disagree on the role satire can and ought to play in these moments.

This is precisely the moment for this type of coverage, but I respect the fact that you don't find it funny.

Incredible to hear. I’ll say it’s less surprising to someone intimately aware of all the previous constraints but still very validating. Long live The Onion.

Vote for the best of the internet I just voted in The Webby People's Voice Awards and checked my voter registration.

The Onion subscriber newsletter was nominated for a Webby Award today. The thing you get OTHER than the paper is up for an award.

Yes, I will eat the Webby if we win. Stop asking. I like how they taste. It is not unusual. It's regular behavior.

Writing Fellowship, Summer 2025 at The Onion

The Onion summer writing fellowship is seeking applicants! It's six months, good salary and benefits.

This year's applicants do NOT have to complete the Eating Challenge, as it turns out this does not adhere to Illinois labor law. We apologize to those who have died in the past.

America’s most influential newspapers are now not only useless but deceptive, laundering the toxicity and greed of the plutocrats who have purchased the government

Still some good arts coverage tho
