I’ve been collecting New Yorker cartoons for over 30 years, and each week on my Substack, my guest at Club Random and I pick a few and describe them to each other to see if they still hold up.
I love this! At 73 I'm seeing so much effort to negate the positive changes that America has achieved in my lifetime. In the meantime my life has sped by. Sometime I feel like WTF! I need a margarita or four just to contemplate the horror of it all. We're still seeing just how deeply dysfunctional so many Americans are. To think that we are still seeing people who can't or won't accept that we are all equal. And they are PROUD of hating. I had hoped for much better from Americans. So yeah, it's time for a drink or three
Bill, I take your point about people needing their ass kissed but did you since find out that like a day or two before they released, that Chat GPT 5 which no longer does that?
It turns out(ok you’re right) too many people fell in love with the AI that kissed their ass(and they worried about the legal implications of overaddiction to the app); but some mental patients arguably needed it.
lol! I found the old New Yorker cartoons on cocktail napkins had the 4 framed but my x husband has it :( very cool! Check out my Substack I’m not religious I have a story though I seek no fame just eyes that are educated and understand from a deferent perspective then a religious house wife.
Stupid idea Bill. Watching you slur your words stoned isn't the greatest idea you've ever had. And this bit is stupid unless you yourself are stoned, which you are so you think it's funny!
Help! Who do you know with access to all the biggest influencers who can help us strategically change the conversation??
If you believe as we do that MAGA fails without FOX and that destroying honest media like PBS makes it even worse let’s defund the FOX rage and hate machine.
Eviscerate FOX with an indirect strategy that works fast. Deny FOX ad $ by denying the ad buying company CEO and execs bonuses. For example Home Depot. Boycott them for a full fiscal quarter and maybe more while keeping Wall Street analysts apprised. Get all on line influencers to post every day for the entire time ending every post every day with “Don’t forget - boycott Home Depot, they fund the FOX rage and hate machine.” See how fast CEO’s stop buying ads - do only ONE brand - do it implacably for an entire fiscal quarter. See how quickly you become the new sheriff in town and how fast other CEO’s quit buying ads. See how fast FOX changes content. All they care about is $. Oh - and next generation FOX CEO will be a decent human being if you do this.
Execution details matter. Talk to me. See Target, Bud Light and Tesla for examples. Companies are people, not paper. Make it personal.
Bill, as an aging woman, I DO NOT appreciate this!!!!! I’ve been a fan forever, and now I am LIVID!!!! 😡
Oh, I *aged*! I thought he said, “I ate”! Hope Lindsay is joking.
Ha - yes I was joking! 😂 Hard to convey jokes in texts to strangers, I suppose!

You’re overpaid Maher! Replace that worthless asshole with AI. Maher adds no value to society.
Fascist’s dream = ignorant propagandized voter base + self-concerned wealthy
AND HERE WE ARE!!
Oh, and he’s client #1.
When do you plan to bring your buddy Trump on to play your little game?
