In 1987 Family Computing magazine asked “computer-using celebrities” what they wanted for Christmas. Julia Child wanted a potion that taught her MS-DOS. Steve Wozniak would like a girlfriend. Robin Williams said he’d “like to be able to jack in directly.” And Todd Rundgren needed a laser printer.

Even setting aside not wanting to support him for jacking off in front of people, I feel like the fact that he did it undercut the entire concept of Louis CK as a comedian: that he was a man with repulsive thoughts and urges, but who had attained the self-knowledge that comes with recognizing them
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

Louis C.K.’s Next Chapter
In a new standup special, and a début novel, the comedian navigates murky, post-#MeToo terrain: not quite exiled, not quite welcomed back.

this new Burger King ad campaign is going a little too far. i know BK like to be cheeky but depicting their competition being endorsed by child rapists is kind of extreme 🫢
Trump: "They had the line. The people had no idea. So I made the french fries. The guy was really good. He had a great wrist. He's going like, 'Sir -- nyha. Hhhhuh.' It was not that easy but I got it sort of finally. Not the greatest. But pouring it in."

In defense of The Simpsons' first season
Depending on who you ask, the first season of The Simpsons might not be included as part of the show's beloved 'golden age' up through season 8. It's kind of an odd transitional stage between the orig...

The nation is in love with the idea of an angry, uneducated, traditionally macho straight white man who miraculously holds the same opinions as a 23-year-old queer feminist DSA member in Astoria, Queens, and I hate to tell you that this might not be a real thing
This whole time I’ve been talking about the Fetterman Particles radiating off this guy but it turns out they’re regular were regular ol’ Hitler Particles.

SNL’s new characters “The Rudemans” remind me of every recurring bit from The New Show, where i can’t tell if it’s meta-commentary on bad sketch characters or just bad for real. it’s probably both

it feels like the SNL writers don’t have enough time in a week to experience anything besides Work and Food because every single sketch now takes place in an office or restaurant. it’s the only inspiration their sleep-deprived comedy brains have to pull from
