I’m about to look into the guy myself, and I guess opening for a Trump rally tells me what I need to know, but is that comedian known for being cool with fascists, or is he an edgy comedian who says shit just to get people riled up and doesn’t really care about politics?

I’ve heard of the Kill Tony show, but I’ve just never watched it or looked into it or anything.

Let me guess - he wouldn’t shut the fuck up about the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics.

I thought it was pretty clear that Trump didn’t give a fuck about Puerto Ricans after Hurricane Maria.

while other times they utilized Musk’s association with neo-fascist presidential candidate Donald Trump.

I love that they called him what he is. I wish more in media would.

No, not without a fight he said because something something podcasts.

This is so fucking cringe.

There’s a Tesla showroom near me and dozens of cybertrucks out front, all in a couple of lines. They look even more ridiculous when they’re like that, like the point is really driven home about just how ugly they are.

I’m here with you, friend.

Hard disagree. This isn’t a superpower. It’s pressure put on us by timelines due to our chronic procrastination that causes a lot of stress. It leads to less sleep and while it may motivate us short term, the long term health effects aren’t good for us. And yeah we may get things done, but at least in my case they’re splotched together clumsily out of desperation and still haven’t gotten the attention and focus that was required.

It’s more of an “oh shit I have 1 day to do this important thing that I really needed a week to do properly. That doesn’t enable me to do it properly, it just makes me panic and focus long enough to pull an all-nighter and get the bare minimum done that will pass for something decent.

TLDR I have ADHD and I don’t feel like this is a good thing.

This is great, assuming Nelson or someone similar is NASA Admin after January and not Elon Musk. That’s a fucking terrifying thought.

Oh fuck off.

It does that to me on mobile if I’m using Safari. FF fixes it.

No dude…you do not fuck with Postal Inspectors. They are armed and mean business. They’re the ones who took down Steve Bannon for his border wall donation scam lol

Oh thanks! I’ll definitely listen on the way to work tomorrow!

Years ago, well before Trump was a name we heard multiple times every fucking day, George Takei came and spoke at a thing I attended. He told the story of his family being rounded up during WWII because they were Japanese.

He was only 4 or 5 or so, but he still remembers the moment when they came to his house and took him and his family away to one of those camps.

It was an incredibly moving story and he told it with such emotion that it was as if it had happened to him the year before. People in the audience were tearing up. I’ll never forget it.

This is not okay.

That guy is insane. I like his content, but dude needs to sleep at least a couple hours a month.

I was thinking it would be akin to something like this:

U.S. says Russia funded media company that paid right-wing influencers millions for videos

Two Russian nationals working for a news network controlled by Vladimir Putin’s government funneled millions of dollars to an American media company that paid right-wing influencers for videos pushing narratives favorable to the Kremlin, U.S. prosecutors alleged on Wednesday.

The indictment alleges that Tenet never disclosed to its audience that it was “funded and directed” by RT, and neither the company nor its founders registered with the Justice Department as an agent of a foreign principal.

I have no idea what something like his show takes to run, but if it doesn’t require 30 people and really does only require even say 10-15 people, he’s doing the exact same thing that people like him and Elon do - “I could do it better and with fewer people on the payroll! What a waste!”

So part of me hopes he really is just getting ripped off.

Probably talking to Alex Jones right now to collaborate.
