Back in ‘22 in Minneapolis I had the pleasure of opening for Ird Al Yanko. I did half an hour. Oct 7 thru 10 I’ll be at the Acme Comedy Company doing an hour. It’ll feel strange talking twice as slowly.

Getting older in the UK is a gradual process of finding out that more lines from American films of your childhood were advertising slogans you were supposed to laugh at them referencing

These kind of statements sometimes lose me people. But. It’s weird. I don’t know why they would choose eternal damnnation. But to each his own

People say his name in anger all of the time. But it is in vain. To do that. Foolish. They are only angry because my agent Jesus Christ gets me such good deals. He says we good.

I do have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. He is my agent/manager. He is the most powerful in Hollywood. He says we good. And you know what. Because of my personal relationship with my agent/manager, Jesus Christ. You have to do exactly what I say. Or you will burn.

I tell you I’m lucky to be an honest philosopher in this world and timeline. When everybody loves philosophy. They love philosophy. And they love a philosopher. They just don’t like to hear any of those harsh truths.

AI sales tactics are really nothing more than rape culture. “You know you want it. You can’t do anything to stop it.“

I’ve never used AI. I have no intention to. So I’m not ever going to pay for it. Sorry, billionaires. Go to the poor house.

Trans people are who we say we are, and we will fight and organize on those grounds.

One of the knock-on benefits of Universal Basic income, would be that people would not need to waste time on forms, and could use that time for projects, growing vegetables and many many more things.

"Being poor is actually a full-time job & being
broke is like a full-time job with the amount of
paperwork and the time going from office to
office proving what you have done.

With Universal Basic Income all that would
be eliminated with the time liberated to do
something socially productive."

They are going to fix this by letting AI kill humans. It’s a weird system. But they say that what they’re doing is they’re making it better.

True story. Boy Scouts. girls camp across the river. One of the girls swims over. Her top falls off. As emerging from water. She apologizes. Profusely.I was looking away at the time. I have no idea what was so horrible about her breasts that she had to apologize. Weird.

I learned from Christians that this failed execution washed away all the sins of mankind. Start behaving like it.

Don’t you dare complain about me comparing Christa Pike to Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was a criminal. He was legally condemned by the state who had the authority to do so. For crimes. It was legal. It was just. Don’t you dare argue.

This would be a good time for Christa Pike to say she has been to heaven and talked to Jesus because the christofascists will have strokes. But she is the new Jesus so what are you gonna do?
