With his new comedy show and debut novel, is it time to let Louis C.K. force women to watch him masturbate again?
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.

It’s so very easy to weaponize uncertainty:“We just can’t know if it’s safe, so better not to act at all”. Everyone is glad when the precautionary principle is used as a cudgel against something they already dislike, but the problem comes when it’s used to ban something you know works-like vaccines🤓

Look, I’m a fat woman who spends a LOT of time pushing back against fatphobia because we can come up with better insults, BUT this guy is sending me 🤣 Carry on, patriot.

I want to stress here for journalists covering Kennedy and his goons that this war on public health is driven by big money.

The wellness industry is a massive, massive grift.
Mr. Kennedy said it’s an individual choice as to whether or not to vaccinate.

Then he and his minions started taking that choice away by making FDA approval of some vaccines impossible.

Bro our government is literally arming a colonial genocide in the Middle East, if nomenclature tops out your imperialism scale you might have a serious issue with perspective.

AirBnB CEO calling it “vibe revenue” just 👨‍🍳 😘

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

“Meta was aware that millions of adult strangers were contacting minors on its sites; that its products exacerbated mental health issues in teens; and that content related to eating disorders, suicide, and child sexual abuse was frequently detected, yet rarely removed.”

What I need is a good defense
Cause I’m feeling like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I’ve sinned against
Because he’s all I ever knew of looooove

These articles always depend on a bizarre Schroedinger's Seattle: The city is falling apart due to progressive overreach but we should have re-elected the conservative non-socialist who has been in charge for the last four years.

Agreed. In my professional legal opinion, the email about Trump blowing Clinton is classic hearsay: you hear it and it's your obligation to say it to others.

Y'know, like the JD/couch thing.
The important thing is not whether the Trump performing sexual favors for Bill Clinton thing is true. The important thing is that we all pretend it’s true, and that someone asks Trump about it every day.

Quick, somebody come up with a new name for Vines that’s so annoying it makes Jack quit his own platform again.
Vine is back under the new name Divine.

- Funded by Jack Dorsey who co-founded Twitter and went crazy in the last few years.
- Including over 100K OG Vine videos
- only 6 seconds long videos
- no Ai generated content allowed
- Open source and no algorithmen.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.
