Way to go, Aidan!

Oh my God @eddiepepitone is recording a NEW SPECIAL in Chicago at the end of the month. This is an EVENT. Grab a ticket and DO NOT MISS IT

To test for Covid in North Carolina, a sick person is hogtied and thrown into a body of water. If they float they are a Covid.

Just opened the front cover of this thrift store Jane Austen and found a legend

Tomorrow I’ll be packing and shipping some books I sold on eBay if anyone wants to come to the taping

If you’re into law, international relations or rare books, I’m auctioning a 1654 1st English translation of Hugo Grotius’ “The Law of Warre and Peace”(THE foundation of international law) on my eBay. All proceeds will go to my landlord eventually bit.ly/4anTbR8

Every best-selling author (from #1-100)) should own at least one #wgaragesale auction item. Let's make it happen! #WGAStrong #SAGAFTRAstrong 100% of proceeds benefit @alifeinthearts

So much cool stuff up for auction July 27 to support the entertainment community fund for those dealing with the most financial hardship from this strike. Jack Handey’s original Deep Thoughts notecards signed front and back by the man himself? Awesome wgaragesale.org

@G_S_Bhogal @thomaschattwill Not enough data. It could also be that women of certain personality type are more likely to be told they have mental health problems when they complain of pain/symptoms-for example as happens to middle aged women in general with heart problems ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Two adjacent tweets that paint a compelling picture of a "pathologization pandemic" where everyone's personal problems are being blamed on some broader medical or societal issue, perhaps because it absolves us of responsibility for our own well-being. Or am I just pathologizing?

I’m so absolutely taken over and obsessed by this piece of music, and much of @lisaoneillmusic latest record. So looking forward to watching her live in Kendal tomorrow. youtu.be/wQGUYgNhQa4

@tworae May the luck of the Irish steer a drunk driver your way tonight.

@tomsharpe I was more excited about vegetables becoming candy…

If this seeps into the aquifer, kids could get addicted to tap water

Just a few seats left for my return to Cedar Rapids! Let's hope the weather doesn't screw us! @fncomedy opens along with @PadleyDan & The Jimmy Pardo Orchestra! Hope to see you there! Check my website for link to tix: jimmypardo.com/tour-dates/

@Brotherwags You know I am bish

@tomsharpe you still rippin’ and grippin’ it?

@MarthaKelly3 Good thoughts for that sweetheart for a quick recovery and that you’ll get good news, buddy.

@ainslie7 @elonmusk ideologue?

Twitter mind; help me out. There was a word being bandied around on here recently, a kind of insult that I think means ‘someone who unquestioningly accepts and repeats the opinion of their clan’ I think @elonmusk used it?

My landlord, from France, gave me a jar of puréed deer liver and said, “We eat this during the holidays.” And I can relate to that because once a bug flew into my mouth and I accidentally swallowed it although in my case I didn’t make it a Christmas tradition.
