Need a way to kick stay-at-home boredom? Want some fight-club action but require social distancing? Well, watch this video and try to see how many people in it you can recognize: Want to know how this happened? UPDATE: Everyone I’ve talked to LOVES this video, but someone asked me last night what this has to […]
Another brilliant video from the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain, doing a great cover of the 70s hit “The Model” by German band Kraftwerk: I love the outpouring of music videos practicing social distancing.
This is the best episode of SGN yet. After all the bad news this weekend, we could definitely use some good news, and Some Good News is just what the doctor ordered.
A new episode from The Government. Warning, lots of offensive (but hilarious) language: I’m having trouble disagreeing with anything in this video, even when they talk about “backwards countries and failed states” and use the US as a prime example. Who could possibly want to go back to “normal”?

The Saturday Night Live cold open last night featured a famous actor playing Dr. Anthony Fauci, Donald Trump’s (soon to be ex-) director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. What you may not know is that a few weeks ago, Fauci was asked by a reporter who he would want to play […]
You know this was going to happen, based on the recent very sound medical advice from Donald Trump, our very stable genius. Let the memes begin! And here’s some relevant poetry, sarcastically attributed to Trump: You know I’m not a doctor – but of course I could have been,That’s why, until a week ago, I […]
10. The Dad-osaur. Coming to a home near you. I totally cracked up laughing at this one.
This is hilarious: So many interesting videos today!
We should always follow the rules, except when we can’t. I think we could make a video just like this, created entirely from video clips of Donald Trump. That might clear one thing up.
9. Make YouTube videos using Zoom conferencing: I especially like the fake falling thing starting around 1 minute in.
8. Watch the April 11th edition of Saturday Night Live, completely created from the cast members’ homes. This turned out to be one of the funnier SNLs in recent memory. Here’s just one of the sketches: And since this is supposed to be a political blog, be sure to watch the sketches featuring: Bernie Sanders […]
7. Enjoy satire about the coronavirus. Here’s a diagram of deaths by disaster, done in the style of Andy Borowitz: In an interview on Fox News yesterday, Donald Trump said that he is going to make a decision on whether to recommend allowing normal working life to resume during the coronavirus pandemic “based on a […]
A friend sent me an article written by Garrison Keillor (in case you live under a rock, he of “A Prairie Home Companion” fame). The article is “With your permission, I shall give a short speech“. You should read it. To induce you to perhaps do that, here’s an excerpt: … skipping the news lets […]
