Wild how many very important people are working so hard to distance themselves from a man whose name they apparently had no problem appearing next to in emails and flight logs. #epstein #epsteinlist #thecomicswordbook #writers

God Rest you merry billionaires,
Let nothing ye dismay,
We won't rest until universal
Living income's here to stay,
Just know that your dates in court,
Will soon be on their way,
You can't deprive us all of cash,
While feasting on Xmas Day,

The trend of “asking Americans questions about Europe” is so painful.

Not because of the dumb answers, of which there are plenty.

But because the people who take such glee in conducting these exercises don’t care that they are doing a big fat colonialism.

Limited myself to two jokes about the news. Which is wild, considering the news didn’t return the favor. #news #jokevember #jokes #american

It’s Turkey Day! What this means, for non Americans, is that as a nation we gather together and reflect on how a prized turkeys would make a more qualified president.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

I have a hypothesis that you can tell people who have been driven around their whole life. They have not been formed in the crucible of public transport, and been exposed to its breadth of humanity. #jokes #publictransit #bus #jokevember

Millennials are basically medieval peasants with Wi-Fi. Our most valuable asset is a cast-iron pan. We grow herbs like apothecaries. We’re one goat away from feudalism, and we don’t even have a yard to put it in. #jokevember #millennials #jokes #comedy

Boats and cars are called 'she' because for some people pronouns only matter if they refer to something shiny that doesn’t talk back. But I digress. #jokes #luck #lady #comedian #jokevember

We cannot give these lunatics an inch in the uk. Scotland is now lagging behind England and Wales. We need the reasonable changes suggested by the expert group to protect us.
Texas' abortion ban has killed yet another woman. Here's exactly what the anti-abortion response will be:

They’ll claim doctors were legally allowed to “intervene” or “treat” Tierra Walker with "care." They won't say she could have had an abortion because they don’t believe in life-saving abortions

It is an annual holiday tradition: people freaking out over tiny (made-up) changes, claiming that "sacred Christmas" is being erased by liberals, Muslims, or the word “evergreen”.

They see the world through the lens of capitalism, equating commerce with culture.

We need capitalism literacy.

Darrel had too much wine and tried to baptize the ham “to cleanse its spirit before digestion.” When Aunt June told him to sit down, he challenged it to a duel, shouting “Name your seconds!” and slapped it with a dinner roll.

I’m not a great political analyst, but I do feel Labour have made a tactical error by opting to be cunts.

Today's Jokevember theme is Health Kick. I do a bit on stage about wedding vows and how I think they should be treated like mortgages. This comes from that bit. #jokes #comedian #jokevember #health #fitness

Those who scream 'think of the children', who beg for a return to purity and traditional family values... don't half obsess about other people's sex lives.
