following him in the before times was a nice education in how being a never-trumper didn't mean you weren't a tedious dipshit. he did some fun music threads for a while but when he stopped his utility dropped off the charts and he was forced to be more annoying about other things. tragic.

Downocrats vs Getuplicans with George Clinton pleading for everyone to come together and agree to get up for the down stroke? I don't remember that one at all.

OK, so we all get that this is meant to be parody and those of us who lived through 9/11 know first hand how horrific it was. But HOLY SHIT I can't stop laughing that this f'g ad...the imagery, the copy, the PRICE!

"Lady Gaga Kidnaps Commissioner Gordon" is my favorite headline (the article itself is a perfunctory piece that was pretty clearly written to justify the existence of the headline) "National Funk Congress Debates Get Up/Get Down Issue" is probably my favorite article.

Satire is a pin to deflate the egos of pompous assholes, and the Onion always brings a pin the size of a harpoon. For me, nothing will ever be as scathingly funny as "It Is Journalism’s Sacred Duty To Endanger The Lives Of As Many Trans People As Possible: — theonion.com/it-is-journa...

My mom ran away/dropped out at 14, raised six children and 30+ foster kids of varying duration (most of the extremely difficult kind: traumatized, criminal, etc.) all of whom left at least one school level higher, worked bar during day, got her degree at night. Ergo: we all did our part. Rightly so.

I love this joke. A little while ago somebody on bluesky referred to people in the song “everybody have fun tonight” as having “wanged chun” and it blew my mind.

It might not exist in online form, and it kills me I didn't save the paper copy. From its prehistory as just a little local printing in Madison, the headline I start giggling about every time I remember it was: DAN QUAYLE POOPS ON FLOOR

Hey Craig. I can’t believe I’ve never seen this one before. Also, we’ve never met. But due to you sharing this triggering post I’ve decided I don’t like you. One could say hate even. Cause my goodness that is a spot on Onion article. Excuse me while I go yell at a cloud….

It's a close run thing between him and Bethany Mandel as far as which obnoxious Twitter personality I'm most happy to have largely forgotten exists.

Prince Fafo, First of His Name

His podcast “Political Beats” (which he co-hosts with the Baseball Crank) is a great way to surf through many bands’ entire discographies. They play long samples that give a great feel for the artist, and the pod guests sometimes elevate the discourse. (Needless to say, Jeff is still a twat.)
