Today is a sad, sad day for fans of comedy, satire, music and all combinations therein. A day we all knew was coming eventually, granted, but that doesn't make it any less sad.
Tom Lehrer, THE greatest singer-songwriter of musical satire to ever walk the earth, has left us at age 97. 🧵

One thing I want to say about Tom Lehrer is that not only were his songs deeply, darkly funny, but they're also so linguistically and musically fine-tuned that they are *hard* to perform. I don't think anyone has ever even come close to performing them like he could.

2,000 years ago, two men died hanging upon a tree, both believing that they’d done right by the world. Today, Christianity calls one of them Savior, and one of them Traitor. But this #GoodFriday, I want to offer different perspectives on Judas Iscariot, a figure central to my spiritual practice.

Experimenting today to see if curling up on the couch with a box of sugar cookies and seven hours of cult documentaries is, in fact, the long-sought cure to the common cold.
