“People that go to brunch are like white walkers and you can’t stop those mutherfuckers…brunch is like a year round pumpkin spice latte…brunch is a fake culture”
he is correct !!!

Been watching these guys go through some Canadian cities and it is so wholesome. Just a reminder not to take travelling so seriously. Enjoy what you see. Don't get wrapped up in fomo. Be grateful to get to travel because so many can't.

It really was incredible set design. Fantastic musically as well. I was in the nosebleeds unfortunately so didn't get a great view into the box but sitting beside the stack had other benefits 🔊🔊

there's a driving complaint report form. I really need to get better at filling these out more often! More often I'm just glad to be alive and move on. It's my end of year resolution!

This is a stupid rationale. The nice people who live in Riyadh aren't paying you, it's the evil people.

Aziz Ansari Defends Riyadh Comedy Festival Participation During ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ Interview

The ‘Good Fortune’ director stopped by Kimmel’s show where he opened up on Saudi Arabia: “To me, a comedy festival felt like something that’s pushing things to be more open and to push a dialogue.”

This exactly. You can have a feed of just beer people but unfortunately if they talk about non beer things as well then you have to layer on word filters on top

It's so ingrained in Toronto culture to speed 14kph over the limit that getting a ticket for 10kph over the limit is unjust in driver's minds

coffeeaddict416.bsky.social @coffeeaddict416.bsky.social · 3d

Police act like not every single driver already knows you can speed 14kph over the limit with impunity. It's the worst kept secret. And yes the defacto speed limit on 40kph streets is 54kph and so on. Anyone with a brain can figure that out by driving in the city

I didn't get to meet Beth Gibbons but after her recent Toronto show, she immediately sat down on stage and hung out with fans. Even just seeing that from the nosebleeds was cool.
