BLUESKY NEWS-DIGGERS: What’s Trump’s past beef with someone at Tylenol? This is all too weirdly specific to not be one of his grudge.

Kimmel comes back swinging. Richter advances on DWTS. It’s a good night for late night.

As a kid of the 80s, I’m intrigued to see Tylenol about to WIN a lawsuit!

My Rosh Hashanah reading just arrived.

Rejected New Yorker cartoon by Jose Arroyo and me. Shana Tovah!

Is your kid (or you) looking for a middle-grade sci fi comedy adventure to read? Look no further! @jeremydauber.bsky.social ‘s latest “PRESS 1 FOR INVASION” is a delightful, unpredictable romp through terrifying things like alien invasions and school cafeterias. Snap it up with your eye-tentacles!

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

Come on down and see me, fellow nerds!

Ah that unmistakable annual sign… that I live in an economically depressed neighborhood.

While Jack Kirby’s best known for his fantastical creations, I prefer his works of stark realism:

At this point, the “2pm announcement” could just as easily be: - Stepping down for health - Abolishing the Post Office - We’re bombing Legoland - No more Ranch Dressing, gays!

And today’s award for “Most Crushingly Anticlimactic Headline” goes to…

Trouble on the set of “CAPTAIN AMERICA: REVOLUTIONARY WAR”

How can anyone be this angry, who gets to come to work every day in a bathing suit?

“Yes, I’d like to report an act of hate speech…”

And lo, a new hero arose…

Infallible Strangers

It’s astonishing that the nearly-50-year-old, trillion-dollar-yielding Star Wars franchise’s entire cred was nearly derailed by the single word “Somehow.”

Is there ANYTHING this guy can’t do?

Don’t share this

Just when you thought the current timeline couldn’t get any more terrifying:

I’ve seen STAR WARS and COMING TO AMERICA like a million times each. But only yesterday did I finally pick up on this…

“…unless we get unexpectedly Snapped by Thanos”

Sign this petition, which is growing exponentially, to tell CBS/Paramount to reverse its chilling Colbert decision. act.boldprogressives.org/survey/petit...

Beyond the politics, axing the #1 late-night show for a merger is more of the insane, hedge-fund-driven mania that decimated Hollywood, is crushing one of America’s most unique industries/ soft influence, and will mean even more reboots and sequels. But some billionaires will have a great quarter!

As a CONAN/Lenogate writer, I now sadly concede the title of “Worst Late-Night Cancellation.”

COMIC-CONNERS come see me at this super-fun podcast/panel

This Epstein rift is shocking - the first time MAGA-ites have given half a shit about the well-being of children.

At this point, shouldn’t he be switching over to “Thank you for your NON-attention to this matter?”

Just got, and devoured, my genius friend/collaborator David DeGrand’s new book, and it is not only brilliantly original, hilarious, and eye-poppingly drawn - it is the PERFECT BOOK FOR THIS MOMENT. Read it with or without your kids, it will stick with you!

I’ve started a fan club for the Puerto Rican Jewish character on “Welcome Back Kotter,” and I’m calling it THE EPSTEIN-PHILES Who wants to add their name?

Going to make way more $ with my SUPERMAN reboot, where he’s born in Kansas, his weakness is “unflattering books about the Confederacy,” and he uses his superpowers to defeat a drag story hour.

Just watched this hilarious special on such a shit day, and it transformed it into a mere “kaka day!”

I want to see Julian Fellowes do an MCU “Civil War” thing where the Russells and Van Rhijns team up to fight the Crawleys at Kitty Hawk.
