I've left Twixter now that it's become a wretched hive of scum and villainy and will hopefully build it back better here. Weather and sports every half hour. Sometimes I draw cartoons. I/me.

No Kings/Indivisible etc are really dropping the ball on this one. Each march having more numbers than the last. I don't think they move the needle on anyone's decision one bit. If you sit this one out, it's not taking a stand. It's wanting everyone to see how cool you are.

My ignorance of Ed Sheeran is slightly connected to the reason we have the politicians we have. Music, sports, and video games are things outside my bubble, same with most people I know, so political apathy among others only makes sense. I disagree with it 100%, but completely understand it.

I never heard of Ed Sheeren until last week and still don't know what he sounds like and don't know exactly what he did and still wouldn't care even if someone explained it to me and I agreed or disagreed. Am I old yet?

It never ceases to amaze me that people don't know the difference between having a sense of humor and finding things funny.

When someone says "you have no sense of humor" or "it's just a joke" while they're punching down, you have every right to be offended. But if it's a first world problem and they're not talking about you or even punching at all, they're the ones in the right.

When I joked yesterday that the makers of COYOTE VS ACME probably didn't know who Peter Lorre was, some people sure got angry. It never ceases to amaze me how much overlap there is between people who like cartoons and people with no sense of humor.

Kids grew up watching actors in old Looney Tunes without seeing the original references, so it doesn't surprise me that they think celebrities were just people they made up, but I would bet the makers of COYOTE VS ACME also thought Peter Lorre was just another one of their characters.

MAGA always like to say "I don't know anything about that" when confronted, but Hasan Piker is literally someone most people never heard of, and only because Republicans brought him up, and only to scare people because his name is Hasan.

It's possible at her funeral he'll insert himself and make it all about him, or his flooding the zone will haunt him. Those are the two possibilities.
