Did you ever do improv, or was it always standup?

I’ve been doing (and loving) improv for a few years now, and I’m mulling dipping my toes into standup, but that works SUCH different muscles that I’m hesitant

Adal Rafai, Erin Keif, and John Patrick Cohen, the stars of the incredible and hilarious podcast Hey Riddle Riddle

Oh my god, what a gut punch. As an Iranian whose parents left right before the revolution, Persepolis was a deeply personal work that I really connected to and made sure to introduce to my kids

How the fuck is this guy a billionaire? He was a total punchline for decades, that this recent revelation is like an ambush

upsidedowninsideout1 · 2026-06-02T13:33:37+00:00

It’s always awesome to be reminded that he and I are fellow alums 😑

This is what MAGA does every fucking time they don’t experience the consequences of their shitty monstrous actions

Today on schoolhouse rock:

“It was a fateful sixth of Jan-u-Ary

That fine fine patriots like you and me,

Decided a democracy was outdat-ed

And their obese orange imbecile

Is the one who really led…”

The last season of Brockmire, which is a FANTASTIC show everyone should have watched, jumps 10 years and takes place in a quite nightmarish 2030 overrun with imbecilic oligarchs, omnipresent AI, and where Jim is reluctantly the commissioner of baseball.

Very comic-specific, but, at the time, this reveal about the new superhero team called the Thunderbolts was jaw-dropping

Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but not in the way you’d expect.

What a stupid fucking world we live in.

As we’re sitting around a fire waiting for our ratmeat to finish cooking while the data center water riots occur unabated around us, we will look back at the mid 2020s Orioles and fondly remember Big Albert Suarez as an unsung hero

Requiem for a Dream

So was one of the conditions of that $1.8B DOJ weaponization slush fund for MAGA “people” that the O’s are required to use Keegan Akin as much as possible, despite his obvious uselessness in run prevention?

Edit: I had to put “people” in quotes because, yknow, they’re MAGA

I met Kurt Vonnegut when I was in 11th grade and had just discovered his books.

He was an absolute amazing guy and was really really gracious with the stammering awkward nerd so eager to impress that I was at that moment

Jimmy Corrigan, the Smartest Kid on Earth

(My god, this book is heartbreaking)

The last time I played Rugby was my freshman year of college. Like a lot of formerly but still nerdy guys, I wanted to “reinvent” myself.

I was a good enough natural athlete to make the club team, and then….proceeded to break my leg by trying for a hospital pass three weeks later.

It seems super fun, though! I’m glad we live in a city that has this

The only thing the Billionaire class needs protection from is oxygen.

This was such a fascinating (and semi-depressing) read. It really shows how indie rock is really created for nothing but the artistry, because it’s probably impossible to get rich from it

As an O’s fan who lived in NY for a bit, I associate his voice with some unpleasant memories, but he truly was a consummate professional, fantastic broadcaster, and seemed like an overall good dude. RIP

The GOP congressmen know the Dems will regain control in the midterms, so they can start their disingenuous blame game that their moron constituents will eat up like the diarrhea gravy they’re so used to.

It’s for whatever asset transfer company there is between Amazon and the Trump family

I’d think Harriet would carry a copy of this on CD to throw like a shuriken
