Cancel Culture Will Kill Stand-Up Comedy

My latest article for Psychology Today is now live. In it, I discuss the psychology of humor, and how ideological interpretations of jokes risk the future work of some of our more edgy stand-up comedians.

Something quite serious now.

For the past 2 years on the birdsite, I've enjoyed being part of Sarah Millican's #JoinIn - there for anyone on their own over the festive season who would like to join in a group chat to help pass the day.

We've had some great times, and I'm planning to support it here too this year.

If you're lonely, just post #JoinIn so we can spot you, or search for the #JoinIn hashtag, and just join in!

Good idea? Give it a BOOST!

@freemo are there any plans to update to Mastodon version 4.0 or newer any time soon? I think many of us would like to have the ability to follow hashtags. Thank you in advance!

@PandaCapone 7, 8, & 10 would not even make my list.

I am looking forward to seeing Creed II as I liked the other two and am interested in how it will be without Stallone being involved.

I actually really like Aquaman - lets be clear - it is not a GOOD movie, but it sure as hell was a FUN movie!

All right #Mastodon, show this #twitterexodus refugee what you can do.

Walked away from 6700 followers because I won't provide content (not directly, at least) or be in the same space as a destructive & dangerous narcissist. This new (for me) place is cool but I do miss being able to post a special #nature #photograph & know it will get seen thousands of times.

I guess that's my #introduction. I rant about #covid #CovidIsNotOver & #LongCovid & I live in a beautiful place. With a foot of snow.
