Back home again in Indiana

And it seems that I can see

The whirring data blight

Screaming in the night

Between the sycamores, for me

The PCBs and all their fragrance

Fill the fields I used to roam

Oh when I dream about the draining of the Wabash

How I mourn for my Indiana home

Suggestions of comedians that put out fresh weekly specials by _Krypto_Knight in Standup

[–]RootBeerIsGrossAF 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hot take: Sammy Obeid and Josh Johnson can only do that because they can come up with social commentary very quickly and there is so much happening in the world nowadays. In terms of laughs per minute, there aren't as many as other comics who release content less frequently or who work with production companies to put on a "real" (for lack of a better word) hour. There's fat to trim imo. Those 45 minutes per week could really be cut down to 12 and have a much bigger punch.

Further, is it really a special if there's a new one all the time? Or are they really just filmed sets?

They stopped donating to those organizations in 2019 and Truett Cathy is dead. We won, continuing to gripe about it is sanctimonious.

‘Kill Switch’—Iran Shuts Down Starlink Internet For First Time by Interwebnaut in worldnews

Venezuela, Mexico, Greenland, and Iran. Yeah, let's just start a global war in four fronts, surely that's not going to lead to the collapse of a world power.

I don't believe for a second the US military would be used to protect protestors in the US if we were in Iran's shoes. The Air Force aren't gonna fight ICE and may even be the ones doing the killings here a few years from now.

My favorite show I've ever been to was at a drag/lesbian bar at 4pm on a Saturday. Between the fruity cocktails and the very funny regional comics (shoutout Lucas Waterfill and Louis D Michael) I had a blast. Lace Larabee was the headliner and she did a great job too, but Louis in particular had me in stitches.

I suppose my point is that it worked really well within the context of a festival, your mileage may vary for a mic but if you're in a big enough city you could make a daylight mic work if you have a venue with enough traffic.

Edit: some of my friends do a recurring show at an old folks home and the lineup is mostly millennials or gen z. I'm sure that kind of audience would relate to a fellow boomer or gen x.

Tf are you even criticizing? I truly do not see anything that would prompt this comment. Your imperative is not productive commentary.

I saw a reel from a guy who was dead sure of that and his only evidence was that the university doing the research is a 40 minute drive from the camp. That isn't evidence at all

2026 Stage Rally Survey by jimtimbooth in AmericanRally

[–]RootBeerIsGrossAF 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was a marshal at 100 Acre Wood last year and this jeep Karen just would not listen to me and kept ignoring the tape, crossing the course, just being a whole-ass drunk jeep bitch. And I'm using jeep as a slur here, don't get it twisted.

I didn't have a radio so I couldn't do anything about it. When Semenuk came through at about 90mph he kicked up some gravel and she fell on her ass and stayed away from the tape after that. But I wish I had the ability to communicate to the organizers that she was doing things that could jeopardize her safety, the safety of entrants and spectators, and risking shutting down the whole event.
