hello friends this is my book (out April 11) and I would love very much if you pre-ordered it! if you like moby dick jokes, Richard Nixon jokes, or Emily Dickinson jokes, it is the book for you! now to post this at 6 pm on a Friday for maximum engagement bookshop.org/p/books/alexandra

I want to thank Ben Stein for trending. I learned today that Aunt Jemima was not a historic figure who started a mulling company, but was just more fucking racism.

I was orienting a new grad nurse. The thing was, the new nurse seemed to have a disability. It seemed a speech impediment. But she would spontaneously tell people, “I love your shirt!” or to the lab personnel we were picking up blood to transfuse, “Thank you for what you do.” The people she spoke to, lit up with happiness. I can’t remember seeing so many random smiles of happiness. Ever. She had a speech impediment, but I wanted nothing more but to hear her voice. It was beautiful.

Here's your periodic reminder to watch "Harold & Maude" at least once in your lifetime.

No, Nikki Haley, thanks but no thanks.

I still haven’t forgotten that you quit the day before it was revealed that Jamal Khashoggi was brutally murdered, tortured, dismembered while he was still alive by the Saudi Prince & his cronies & you helped Kushner cover up his assassination which he got rewarded for with 2 billion dollars.

What did you get for your part in the cover up, Nikki?

I will remind everyone of your complicity til you drop out of the 2024 presidential race.

Valentine’s Day always reminds me of the time when my mom was in hospice and one of my parents’ elderly neighbor ladies brought a gift basket.

Here’s the thing. Due to being around Valentine’s Day and the likely limited options at the store, this gift basket was a super tacky Valentine’s gift basket with a teddy bear and some chocolates and some other random items.

It was a totally weird gift basket, but my mom thought it was pretty hilarious because WHO BRINGS A VALENTINE’S GIFT BASKET TO THEIR DYING NEIGHBOR?

Anyway, after the neighbor left, my mom and I started looking through the basket to see what was in it and that’s when we realized that it wasn’t just a Valentine’s gift basket, but a SEXY Valentine’s gift basket and the teddy bear wasn’t just a teddy bear, but a SEXY teddy bear and it also came with flavored lotions and oils and other “sexy” stuff.

That poor neighbor clearly had no idea what was in it and likely just grabbed a random gift basket because it had a dumb teddy bear in it, but it seriously provided us with hours of entertainment digging through that sexy gift basket and forcing “sexy” gifts on my mom’s friends whenever they’d come to visit.

Anyway, happy Valentine’s Day, neighbor lady. I hope you’ve made it a tradition of handing out sexy gift baskets to dying people because it really does lighten the mood.

@swordsjew We found them. They are back ordered 4 months, and the guy who makes them isn't taking any further orders.

@swordsjew , my family found Nicole Coenen, the wood chopping Canadian who uses a sword. We now all want one of those swords... and you are the closest to an expert I know. My kid is asking Ms Coenen...

@mmasnick Moaning about Twitter on Mastodon is like talking about your ex on a first date.

You don't need to hide the naked people, just change the way you look...

I do recommend the Weird Al biopic. It answers so many questions.

He is the best... err.. a good player in an extremely specific genre of music!

Show thread

I think I have been a Weird Al fan his entire career.

It gets the chicks.

Today I learned that like the rest of the internet, incels and neo nazies who populate mastodon, are angry, and fantasies of gay sex spew from their keyboards. Apparently thinking a mathematical genius who isn't white and male can be a hero is too much for them. Such a pity.

How long before Iran falls due to it's crackdown on seeing hair?
