Fuck your ChatGPT, if I want to see a caricature of myself I will make the effort to go to the seaside and pay £15 for a cruel man to give me body dysmorphia like we’ve always done.

The collective Jackass cast should do the Criterion Closet, which we now know to be a van, while the van goes speeding down the highway careening round corners and the Jackass boys fly into the shelves trying to pick out and discuss art house films the entire time.

Being back at my parents got me feeling all sorts of ways. Was just doing dishes and saw a particular fork and said “god I’ve not seen you in a while”

At SNL I worked with artists who made the funniest, stupidest graphics in no time flat. Some of my biggest jokes would have been impossible without these geniuses building an insane image or finding the perfect real-life photo of a politician. Sucks that their work is being pushed aside for slop.

They say A.I. can replace our jobs but I’d like to see A.I. quickly burn out and make the overall environment toxic. Okay I’m being told that’s the main thing it does.
