“If you loved what we make, then just love us” Josh Johnson
also not to be a nerd, but you’re set up at 15:00 and the delivery of you’re punchline at 17:15 in the video is one of the best deliveries I’ve seen in ages! The nuances! #standup#greatquotes@joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social
The gross thing stuck in the back of my funny-bone, is that this comes after a pandemic, writers strike, and ongoing ai stea-I mean “learning” of comedians work crippled the stand up economy. If they don’t value life, then why should we value their intellectual property?
When you’re baked and go from listening to “ladies who lunch” on loop while daydreaming of @weissmann.substack.com writing a satirical law book on the laws of the court of public opinion as though it was an actual court of law.
Update these crayons suck. Although I would argue for a transparent version of this as a blending tool for watercolor pencils and Derwent inktense series
They didn’t feel “seen or valued” you dangled representation at the foot of closeted queers who would be killed or beaten if they were out. So your fame got you to carve out an addendum in your contract!? Would ya do a show for David Duke’s ilk if you donated the profits?
Photography by Timothy Bronn “pony”. Debating what to do with the crocheted sex masks I made for a traveling photo series I never followed through with. Was debating making putting them in shadow boxes or something #lgbtqart#masks#crochet#art
Omg if I have to hear one more person talk about the comet sighting like it’s an alien spacecraft or tied to a government conspiracy and use “they say” or “some say” statements I’m going bonkers
YouTube and google need to stop turning point from flagging their videos under false topics to work the algorithm. You block and click see less, they put it under a different topic and YouTube does nothing. #youtube#turningpoint#yousuck
Portland this morning, specifically one of PDX’s most fentanyl infected areas. There’s no war, no chaos. That being said it’s also not season 1 of “Portlandia” Portland. Not everything is hockey dory, but guess what? That’s every city ever. We don’t need national guard. #pdx#nbc#msnbc
I would call Ancient Aliens a guilty pleasure if it wasn’t for some the ethnocentric, xenophobic aspects of it all but it’s 3 am and need something stupid to sleep to #ancientaliens#netflix#insomnia
So yes, but also no. Over the years copy right and intellectual property rights laws have been amended and re-interpreted to the point of being in favor of bigger production studios and companies. Disney for example lobbied and fought hard to keep Micky out of public domain.
Ironic seeing Jane Fonda’s name on the list. She’s been a staunch activist for causes and I can’t fathom her thinking that just penning your name to a letter in this situation is a genuine strategy. Hollywood shouldn’t be a voice in this fight, it should be a fist make their own project 2025
As the writers strike and actors refusing to work with pro-Israeli parties as precedent; Every actor that signed COULD refuse to do interviews with networks pulling Jimmy Kimmel. Sacrifice the profits and Refuse to promote their work on those stations. Instead, they write a letter. #kimmel
While I love Lawrence, one small thing. To those of a minority group albeit race, gender or otherwise. Politics was never boring; it was dreadful and scary. Politics being boring was a privilege held by those with no tangible threat to their livelihood by legislation. #msnbc#lawrence
Like I’m trying to understand their bar. They fire someone for saying (delicately mind you) that it isn’t surprising that someone spouting dangerous rhetoric would invite danger. But then romanticize Kirk’s death by using “beat around the bush” semantics and quoting bible versus?
MSNBC “how could this have happened” I don’t know maybe when mainstream media uses the same rhetoric they condemn after the fact. Having someone on to say there is “evil in our midst” only to have a blurb singling out the news of a transgendered roommates. Your just as much to blame #msnbc
