it's very cool that The Iron Giant ended with it asserting that it would not be a weapon, and then directors keep putting The Iron Giant in their movies as the big destructive robot
nice to remember this message from Stan Lee - that politics, messages, and progressive ideals not only have a place in comics and art, but are actually the only reason to have comics and art at all
hi, i'm the head VFX guy for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie. we have to delay the movie again because I accidentally deleted the eyes and nose and made Sonic's face just a big giant mouth.
also i mistakenly programmed it to feel pain, so it is always screaming. i'm very sorry

thank you for bringing attention to this event. it turned my 8 children gay. my dog now walks upright and speaks in perfect english. the sun has not set in the past 36 hours and seems to be getting closer to earth. i can command birds with my mind.

d. opioid overdose
e. all of the above
Stan Lee leaves behind a messy, complicated legacy - but one thing that was never a question was how he felt about intolerance, hate, and bigotry. RIP to Stan the Man
So, bad news โ with a twist.
IAC, our parent company, has made the difficult decision to no longer finance us. Today, 100+ brilliant people lost their jobs, some of whom are my dear, dear friends. Hire them. (thread)
fun fact: we could pay pretty much everyone in america dril's monthly expenses ($4900 * 300,000,000 = $1.47 trillion) instead of a bunch of F-35 planes that don't work and never will
everyone at the time: "oh that's gross and messed up"
but look at them now: strong. great hair. leaders.
all thanks to suckling at teats well after infancy
reminder that literally hundreds of people have named their children "daenerys" or "khaleesi" and now have to reckon with accidentally naming their kids after Fantasy Hitler
JOAQUIN PHOENIX: "I will lose 50 pounds to play The Joker. I will transform my body and mind to fully inhabit this character."
CESAR ROMERO: "lol dude it's a fucken mean clown, I wouldn't even shave my mustache for this."
genuinely dont know why anyone would ever wanna stop wearing masks in public. you get sick less, no one can tell that youre mouthing the words to carly rae jepsen songs at all times, you can hide your shitty facial hair, etc. just nonstop winning
servants: oh no, 100 of us are plates and forks now because you made a witch curse us
the beast: oh no
servants: well at least we don't literally have to live in a cupboard lol
the beast:
servants: ...we don't right?
the beast: i mean what if someone comes by for dinner

you are one of the most talented and versatile artists i have ever known and someday i will tear down the mona lisa (small, stupid, bad) and replace it with bakugo into the spiderverse (large, beautiful, perfect)
the funny thing about Joe Biden is that he did something offensively, impossibly evil at nearly every important turning point in his career. his final act will be getting trump re-elected, which is very fitting given his track record.
โI voted for a fence. I voted, unlike most Democrats, I voted for 700 miles of fence. But, let me tell you, we can build a fence 40 stories highโ
โJoe Biden, not Trump
โon โIllegalsโ, not โundocumentedโ
โ2006, not 1986
its pretty funny dr strange has a spell that can undo any bad thing in history and the only time he uses it is to make some high school kid seem less cool
this weekend my daughter watched a
@caldy
storyboarded cartoon and i listened to a
@caldy
dm'd podcast and that's called crossgenerational content synergy baby
ok so i heard people didn't like the weird bony hands and I tried to put gloves over them, but i accidentally removed the arms and hands entirely and replaced them with an old lady's hand jutting out of Sonic's ribs on one side
might have to delay this another month, guys. sorry
i know fossils were always a thing but it is truly mindboggling that Animal Crossing canonically had an extinction-level event asteroid strike that wiped out nearly all life on the planet
Star Wars OT films ranked by horniness:
1. A New Hope (boy abandons his entire life when he sees a 2 inch tall girl hologram)
2. Return of the Jedi (bikini lady chokes a slug guy, kink-adjacent)
3. Empire Strikes Back (lady kisses her brother & a guy about to get executed ๐)
imagine trying to make comedy in an age where mussolinis grandkids are melting down over jim carrey antifascist paintings and tech billionaires are releasing harambe raps 3 years too late. whatโs the point
bi? you bet your ass Iโm bi....bipartisan. poly? absolutely. Iโm poly as hell...a polymath for vigorous debate and an exchange of ideas, that is. trans? absolutely - transatlantic, to support our NATO allies.

new rpgs: you're a cool badass. here's a menu system that makes sense. we patched out the bugs
old rpgs: you're 50 years old. you fucking suck and you're ugly. here's a menu system that takes weeks of study to understand. if you go through any door its a game ending glitch
Ryan is one of the funniest, smartest people I've ever known. The porn stuff is just the tip of the iceberg as to how incredibly good he is. He will be insanely famous for things in addition to the porn thing before long.
@Bro_Pair
literally the funniest moment in TV history is the scene transition from Carmela being overwhelmed by the grandeur and beauty of Paris then cutting to Sil screaming โclean the shit off โer tits!โ at the guy cleaning the Bada Bingโs sign next to a shitty NJ highway
for extra credit, please guess what further indignity your family needs to suffer after your demise:
a. gofundme to pay for the funeral doesn't hit the goal
b. your s/o inherits your debts
c. ben shapiro calls you a "thug"
d. your twitter gets hacked and posts MLM affiliate links

It is wild to me that Willie isn't some kind of podcast king with a patreon taking in $20k a month. Willie, start a patreon. If it makes $20k a month, then start the podcast.
(Willie is one of the few people whose writing has ever made me belly laugh)
Also just to add my small voice to the mix, I have never had the opportunity to work with such amazing people as I did at CollegeHumor. Some are my literal best friends and others I admired from afar but they're all going to go on to do awesome things and I'm excited to see it.
WHAT EACH SESAME STREET CHARACTER WAS MEANT TO TEACH KIDS
ELMO: the curiosity and awe of discovering new things
BERT & ERNIE: friendship and interpersonal relationships
THE COUNT: the joy of learning
BIG BIRD: yo what if a bird was way too fuckin big
putting daughter to bed routine:
-kiss & hug (in that order. If I hug first, we have to start over)
-"see you later! bye bye!". we repeat this a few times. I shut the door and she SCREAMS it again. I am expected to scream it back through the closed door, or she starts crying.
List of banned Simpsons episodes:
-โStark Raving Dadโ (Michael Jackson episode)
-โThe City of New York vs. Homer Simpsonโ (WTC episode)
-โThe Subway We Wereโ (the episode where Marge looks directly at the camera and says โJared Fogle of Subway is innocent of all accusationsโ)
One time someone emailed me asking for Rebecca's contact info because she wrote something funny enough they wanted to inquire about tv stuff. The point is she will be doing big TV stuff soon so get in on the ground floor
Today both myself and prince harry were let go from our employer. Him from his bubbe and I from CollegeHumor. So, if you'd like to hire me to write on your television show that would just be incredibly hot and sexy of you I think!!!
@dimension20show
Katie is stupidly funny and I mean that in the most sincere admiring way. Her sketches have put images in my head that I will never forget. No one could make dancing around with shit in their pants for 90 seconds as funny as she did
I really appreciate all the love. Iโve been at CollegeHumor for almost exactly six years. Itโs been my entire post-college life. Iโm going to miss working with my best friends.

Tristan is literally a genius. He is beyond smart and savvy about online, but he is also deeply funny and creative. Bringing him aboard was one of the easiest and smartest things I ever have done. He secretly conquered videogame twitter in his off hours
Hey folks, I was just laid off -- if you're looking for writing or social media work from the person behind
@CanYouPetTheDog
, my DMs are open. RTs super appreciated!
@ZacOyama
Zac I don't often get overly sincere on this website but you would genuinely be the best imaginable Mr. Bean. it should be like Dr Who and he transforms into you. You can wear a slightly different outfit
BIG BIG NEWS: We're independent now and FULL of emotions.
Thank you SO much to everyone for being the amazing supporters that you have been. We couldn't have done this without you.
We have a Patreon with a ton of tier rewards and a new store with DFTBA!
I was laid off at collegehumor today along with my talented funny coworkers. It was truly a dream job. โ๏ธ
Anyways, if you wanna hire me: I'm a comedic writer/performer and I'll dye my hair whatever color you need. ๐ฉโ๐ค

Rekha kicks ass and somehow, in addition to being funny and great at CollegeHumor, was in like 4 other huge funny defining comedy things last year? Anyways I'm going to tell people I knew her when she's big n famous even though I only ever met her on slack
Iโm so honored to have worked at
@CollegeHumor
. It gave me a shot in LA, it let me experiment, it let me grow, and it introduced me to creatives who I hope to work with and, most importantly, eat with for years to come. I am forever grateful โค๏ธ
