Good night from the gawdy rainbow kl@n. Goodnight Mardi Gras. Goodnight #RexComus. Until we post again next year.

They pulled that train up off the ground sooo fast. #RexComus

Oh, so this is a real ball and not just a reception. Got it. #RexComus

Happy Mardi Gras, everybody. Happy New Year. Happy Ramadan. The people in this photo think this city belongs to them. It does not. It belongs to you. Take care of it this year. Reach out to your neighbors. Show them some love. These are rough times. We need to stick together. #RexComus

I'm counting that as a debutant wearing something other than white. #RexComus

Errol: The Comus doubloons are rare and very collectable because who do you ask to get one? Well Errol, I'm pretty sure there's a bowl of them at the next Klan meeting. #rexcomus

Someone dancing with a head! #RexComus

Ah, the wife swap part of the evening. #RexComus

Context for #rexcomus. It's basically the ceremonial end of Carnival season in New Orleans. Bunch of rich people LARPing a royal masquerade ball or two that gets televised on PBS.

Apparently at a reception only those wearing giant heads are allowed to dance. #RexComus

Arthur: They never reveal the identity of Comus. Even past history one's. Pretty sure they are in the #epstein files. #rexcomus

Ah, my 14 year old has finally seen the majesty of the dancing heads and the terrifying mask of Comus. I have inducted them into properly into the cult. #RexComus

Why is it a smaller organization Peggy? Tell us Peggy!!!! #RexComus

And Errol was alive to see those first parades. #RexComus

"Big E" Really Peggy??? #RexComus

Dancing??? At this reception??? #RexComus

"Dear King of Carnival, Would you and your very young Queen like to come across the street to our not-ball? Our organization is much less inclusive than yours has (sadly) become. Our dark rituals are almost done. Leave the "inclusive" people at home. XOXO, Comus (a god)." #RexComus

It's a more "inclusive" celebration = We let in the slightly poorer and a few blacks. #RexComus

Switch chee-wees to king cake crumbs and I'm with you. #RexComus

Hey Errol and PSL, why does Comus no longer parade? Can you tell us??? #RexComus

We're looking for new recruits. We're hoping to find some here at this ball...I mean reception. #RexComus

Rex Ball, brought to you from the town of Footloose. #NoDancing #RexComus

"We are having so much fun." We are???? #RexComus

Watching #RexComus with my mama and I’m about to introduce her to the bingo card. Exasperated “Rachel” incoming to be followed by me reenacting the duck meme.

I asked ChatGPT to write the letter from Comus to Rex. Here it is. #RexComus

From my sister: “The camera will be on you the moment you want to nod off” was advice for Errol #RexComus #PrayForErrol

Little page, close your legs. No one wants to see that. #RexComus

PICKLEBALL mentioned! Mark off your cards. #RexComus

Ah yes, the time of year when all the major business deals in New Orleans are actually happening. #RexComus

Errol had to quickly explain why there were so many black folk in line and it got a surprising "Ohhh" out of Peggy. "oh they're event planners for the Illinois club. 'Ohhhhhhhhh" 🤣🤣🤣 #rexcomus

No gloves!!! What is this "lovey" spectacle coming to??? #RexComus

I saw people dancing! #RexComus

No finger guns yet, but we did get a thumbs up. #RexComus

Did she skin the Cheshire Cat to make her dress? #RexComus

The first of many dark rituals has begun. The making of the homages. The blood sacrament does not happen until they get to the Comus ball #RexComus

Yes, please teach them how to curtsy. Ideally together and for the same length of time. #RexComus

The teen is upset that the women are all majoring in easy majors. They want to know why they aren't challenging their minds. #RexComus

LOL, my teen is freaking out about the king and queen's age difference. They get it. #RexComus

Ah yes, the processing in of the gawdy kl@n. #RexComus

Oh no, poor lady in that pink mumu! #RexComus

"We cannot forget where we came from." Rich white plantation owners who enslaved people and fought against the North in the war? #RexComus

Wait, which gay pride flags were those that he was wearing? #RexComus

The way the economy is trending, in a few years, your best bet for acquiring household goods will be to try and catch them from a parade #RexComus

Is the Rex coffee a light blend? #RexComus

How many #RexComus attendees are in the Epstein Files?

I hope #RexComus got Bad Bunny to play during intermission. We missed out on Chambea during the Super Bowl.

Introducing my teen to #RexComus. They asked "How does one get to become king or queen? Do they have to be born into a very special family?" Yes, baby, yes they do.

Did they design Peggy's necklace to match the flowers or the flowers to match her necklace? #RexComus

Think Errol got smelling salts in that giant flower? #RexComus #PrayForErrol
