Two things can absolutely be true at the same time time. 1) Portland naked bikers are awesome! 2) I’m going to be a wee bit cautious about buying a used bike in Portland.

It's the latest of several shows Oliver has done in defense of trans people.

Weiss at CBS is a disaster for trans people.

It’s like crossfire all over again where Jon Stewart humiliated both Tucker Carlson and Paul Begal, but never inviting someone like Jon Stewart back. It’s horrible tv
