Amazed at the hysteria over the ascendance of a woman entrepreneur who clearly knows how to cover and sell news and who's not afraid to take on a mob

Perfect posting from Tim Heidecker, 24 hours apart.

What an incredible experience, getting to perform at the Riyadh Comedy Festival. I left feeling grateful and humbled by his majesty's generosity. I'll never forget this memorial experience and all the fun we had. Hope to do it again soon.

upon further reflection, there is a small part of me that feels I sent the wrong message, regarding the Riyahd Comedy Festival last night. While, I do think it's important for comedy to have the opportunity to thrive in all parts of the globe, there are some aspects of The Royal Highness, King Salmon and his leadership in the region that i don't agree with entirely, but it's a different culture when it comes to freedom and rights and I gotta respect that we are all different and have different values. My manager is now investigating the possibility of donating some of my fee to a charity for Vetrans of War.

I hate profiles of conservatives who are worried that their country is changing and would welcome profiles of liberals and leftists who are afraid of same thing from the opposite direction and treated their concerns the same kind of reflexive deference

MYTH: ICE agents lack proper training.

FACT: Most have been racists their entire lives.

I suspect one reason they hide their identities is to conceal past restraining orders and DV arrests.

I think Zohran is great and inspiring and much needed right now, but all he's doing is like the job as it's supposed to be. Starts with a set of principles and advocates for them. It's like how everyone goes crazy for Chotiner for just doing the job. Not an indictment on either of them but the rest.

I’m not so pure that I won’t watch something that might prove problematic but I also want it to be actually good, I guess?

horror in this case = 80s slasher movies, your Freddies, your Jasons, etc. I like John Carpenter, Cronenberg, other directors who could be interpreted as Horror Guys but in general the “horny teens get chopped” genre just feels like I’m watching kids’ programming with blood & vile sexual politics

I wasn’t allowed to see horror movies as a kid so every time I see one as an adult reinforces my belief that (with some exceptions) they really need to be seen when you’re young and exactly as dumb as the movies are

the inverse of this is how much of politics is now just accepting that you have to vote for people who hate you, so your best option is to vote for people who hate other people more than they hate you
