Comedy Tonight: Tuesday, June 6
It’s 6/6/23 (and 2 x 3 = 6), so we are dealing with a Luciferian date today. Well, what’s out there in our current mediascape that’s more infuriatingly stupid and demonic than AI? (I’m not counting Elon’s Twitter-curated faceplant of Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign announcement, because that was pathetic and funny). Anyhoo, Savage Henry is […]

Christmases Merry, White and Blue
That juggernaut called the holidays has arrived and so, whether we like it or not, most of the bounty of our evening’s public pleasures have been displaced in its rampaging wake. Many of you are out of town and/or neck-deep in some family indulgence, which might seem somewhere between a chore and a court order. […]
