Is the Sears DieHard a Christmas car battery?

I wish it could be Christmas every year!

Today I learned that Red Square in Moscow is like Hollywood Boulevard, with guys walking around dressed as Lenin and Stalin posing for photos.

Apparently, in Spanish, Emmet Otter is called "Nutria Emmet." That's a whole different animal!

Last Thursday, Kevin Maher and I had a great time bringing our film DRACULA'S SUPER SCARY HALLOWEEN to The Bowery Film Festival You can watch it on youtube, link below. Our film is short, Kevin is tall. www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7ak...

Racist much? Every single member of ABBA is white!

A cartoon from @altajournal.bsky.social

The Abbey Road crossing in London is constantly filled with tourists and people taking photos. It really makes you wonder how The Beatles were able to get a clear shot for their album cover.

There have been many parodies of this famous photograph, and this cartoon of mine from the @newyorker.com is certainly one of them.

You want a Christmas movie? Fine. Here’s your damn Christmas movie!

BRAZIL is a Christmas movie

If anyone's interested, I have a scorching hot take about Royal Dano.

What would you call this? A "spill take"?

Morrissey brings tears to my eyes when he sings “I am human…”. Such an anguished cry of emotion, when nowadays all he’d have to do is click on a few pictures of motorcycles.

America's Decline? It's Been 28 Years Since Anyone Wanted To Hang With Mr. Cooper

Say auf wiedersehen to your Nazi balls, Charlie Brown

First time I’ve gotten all five letters right, but all of them in the wrong place. Wordle 1,622 3/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I'm still slightly unsettled by the sight of Bart Simpson with combed hair.

Here’s mine in this week’s @newyorker.com

Had a dream that my mother decided after all this time to rename me, and she gave me the new name "Glenn Allen Burke." Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some serial killing to do.

In the @newyorker.com this week, no one can hear you squawk. #cartoon #humor #humptydumpty #egg #chicken #nurseryrhymes #alien #chestburster #ridleyscott #johnhurt #newyorkercartoons

By popular demand, I have updated this drawing to better reflect the current state of the Oval Office. Full comic here: joedator.com/comics/redis...

This page from my 2020 Columbo piece is making the rounds on the internet yet again, for some reason or another... joedator.com/comics/redis...

OK, I made this dopey cartoon real. You're welcome.

I'm of two minds when it comes to people sharing AI videos. On the one hand go fuck yourself, but on the other hand drop dead and burn in Hell.

50 years ago today.

democrats winning would cut into their fundraising

I'm thrilled to learn that the short film I co-directed with Kevin Maher will be screened as part of the Bowery Film Festival on Thursday, Dec. 11th! Tickets available here: www.squadup.com/events/2025-...

Picking up some supplies for Thanksgiving.

I liked Del Toro's FRANKENSTEIN, but I wish he'd left in the scenes where the creature works in a funeral parlor, then comes home to his wife and son in the suburbs.

Spotted this morning in upper Manhattan. A lot going on here.

I’m still upset that we never got a movie called EDGAR WINTER’S FRANKENSTEIN

OPINION: "I'm Fine, By The Way, In Case Anyone Was Wondering." by The Guy Who Collapsed In The Oval Office

“What a loser. I like people who DON’T have a medical emergency during a press conference.”

My social circles, and pop culture interests, have collided exquisitely today, as my good pal Kevin Maher is a guest on my good pal Frank Santopadre's new podcast, discussing the movie musicals of 1980!

Boo to dressing your kids up as things they’ve never heard of for Halloween. Your toddler wants to be a puppy or a princess or something. Let them.

Rewatched the Werner Herzog NOSFERATU (1979) last night, hadn’t seen it in decades. Man does it hold up. Klaus Kinski’s Dracula is an amazing performance. The movie is visually stunning. Rat content warning: LOTS OF RATS.

Happy Halloween everyone!

Rapper's Delight: Halloween Edition

Hey, just want to mumble that this is wildly illegal and inappropriate and would prompt impeachment proceedings if we still had a functional Congress instead of one run by a blind, deaf and mute Renfeld wannabe.

Well, this is the problem. There are no Republicans with “better angels” left. Everyone who could make a difference is either cowed by Trump, or besotted with how rich he will make them. This is not good.

This time of year I feel it is important to point out that armadillos are not indigenous to Transylvania.

I was telling a friend of mine, who has three grown children, about Collegeville and Ben Cooper costumes. She had never heard of them, and that is how I know she was a great mom.

Tonight! I am so excited because my good friend @wardsutton.bsky.social has created the opening segment of The Simpsons Halloween episode, in the style of his alter ego “Stan Kelly!” Watch it or be labeled a sicko! Tonight at 8 PM on Fox!

It is dawning on me that there is a whole generation of people for whom the most recognizable actor in GHOSTBUSTERS is "Carl Winslow."

I could happily live the rest of my life without ever seeing another “sexy Velma”
