- This is why we cried when he won.
- Remember when male comedians this week were like "Chris Rock got slapped!! Comedy is in danger!" They never gave a fuck about those of us in comedy who were always in danger. They're SILENT 2nite on Louie CK winning a Grammy for an album where he jokes about his assaults.
- keanu reeves is who johnny depp thought he was gonna end up being.
- Sorry. I can’t participate in the #SecondCivilWar tomorrow. I have bone spurs. But I can throw paper towels out of a moving vehicle if anyone needs me.
- To every media person in my emails today asking me for a comment about Louis CK. Stop asking ME. Ask MALE comedians. What not ask Patton Oswalt, Judd Apatow, Marc Maron, David Cross, Bo Burnham, Aziz Ansari, Pete Holmes, Rory Scovel, Mike Birbiglia, Doug Benson, Ron Funches?
- OMG. Look at how much Bill can’t take a joke. OMG. He would have lasted four seconds as a woman comic.Wow @RepKatiePorter out-funnied Bill Maher on his own show. Maher said he's "squishy" on choice because his mom almost didn't have him, and Porter absolutely brought down the house with this response
00:00 - Depression isn’t sadness. It’s a disease not a mood. Antidepressants do NOT numb pain. They take people from below sea level back to sea level so that they can properly live with the normal amount of human pain and sadness. (subtweet)
- In light of the Harvey Weinstein watching comedy NYC incident - it’s so clear that women comics are the ones with guts and using their free speech not to whine about some invisible PC Culture keeping them down but speaking truth to unchecked power. To. It’s. Face. That’s edgy.
- Folks in my extended family (Massachusetts) who want a border wall because they really believe thousands of rapists and murderers are flooding into SoCal daily, never once have asked me, a SoCal resident if I’m okay. I find that a fascinating piece of psychology to ponder.
- can we stop canceling male comics. i can’t take another one of them doing a comedy special about it.
- The anti-Pelosi stuff isn't you being a free-thinking, young, or middle-aged revolutionary. It's a Kremlin created talking point ("new blood vs establishment") that was subtly sold to you as progressive due to your conscious or unconscious sexism/ageism and you fell for it.
- I'm too old to understand the inside jokes of why Harry Styles is trending but I've always thought he was cool AF and I just saw this quote of his. Goddamn right! Standing ovation over here.
