Good morning, and Shabbat Shalom, Threaders , Threadheads, and all in between. Coffee sure is helping this cold morning. I need lots.
Love is on the road, again. No trains to catch, Brooklyn or otherwise… And 30’s long gone, thirty is thirty away, but something’s changed since. Love is on the road. Get your coffee. Rise. Walk with me.
Forty seven. He was 47.
When he was born, I was riding a swing, with my mother, wearing a Bicentennial t-shirt. Yes, in Portugal, I shit you not. It was my favorite t-shirt. And now they killed him.
Jon Stewart doesn’t give a shit. He told us to do whatever the fuck we want, vote for Trump, vote for Cornell, write in Bernie Sanders. It doesn’t fucking matter, he told us. Everything will be fine, meaning as shitty as it always has been. And now they killed him.
But Jon Stewart doesn’t give a shit. He told us Biden is senile, and demanded us to ask questions, and video proof of intelligent life in the White House. Because his favorite kid isn’t running again, what’s his name… Oh, yeah! Bernie Sanders! That one. Jon told us he’s the one, so vote or don’t, fuck it, he told us. And now they killed him.
The economy is great, and we keep on selling weapons to Israel and the Ukraine, and it really pisses Jon off.
Jon Stewart doesn’t give a shit. 133 days. So much to do to bring them home, but we should just tune in to the Daily Show, every Monday until November, so he can tell us we should stay home, and let the chips fall where they may. Kinda like they had it coming to them, Jon kinda told us. Who gives a fuck? As long as he makes us laugh. No, as long as we watch him laugh. What a pathetic little man you turned out to be Jon. And now they killed him.
And Jon Stewart doesn’t give a shit.
Alexei Navalny was 47. And they killed him. And Jon Stewart doesn’t give a shit, just another clickbait freak, after all. Just sit back and relax, we’ll be fine. There are some mass shooting jokes lined up. You’re really gonna love those! But don’t vote for the senile old man, he told us. No, not Trump, the other one, he told us.
And now they killed Alexei. And Yulia Navalnaya gets a standing ovation, and Jon gets busy writing a joke about it. Now that they killed him.
Jon Stewart doesn’t give a shit, anymore. And I find myself looking for evidence he ever did. I remember when he crucified Tucker and Begala, and now all I can think of his sending Jon a bow tie. It suits him well. Yeah, I am having a hard time. I am bracing myself for the show he gets Rashida Tlaib as a guest. Oh, it’s coming! From the river to the sea, it’s coming, isn’t it, Jon. Don’t answer questions with no question marks. They’re called statements.
Jon Stewart doesn’t give a shit. Our kids are being swallowed whole by a society with book bans and gun shows, and Jon told us to stand back and stand by, for another Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Cause you gotta watch him laugh at us. Fucking white privileged trash you become, Jon. But you don’t live in a trailer, do ya? Such bulshit, man. Such waste. Watching you laugh. Watching you laugh at us. Fuck you, Jon. And now they killed him.
Jon Stewart doesn’t care.
This is what we will become, he didn’t tell us, if we do as he did tell us, and don’t vote. Or go ahead and vote “present”, you know, to amplify the silenced minority he speaks for, while we watch him laughing. You’re a real good will ambassador, Jon. Oh yeah, I give you credit for standing with the 9/11 first responder survivors. Like I give credit to the broken watch in one of my drawers, twice a day. No, Jon, really. Fuck off. And now they killed him.
And as they killed him, I can’t help but see Justin Jones in his place, or AOC, disappointed that I am. Or even that POS Tlaib, whom I suggested being airdropped into Gaza, along with all the propal dumbfucks. And I know, Jon, I made a funny too, suggesting a parachute less airdrop, but I was kidding, a bad joke cause you gotta laugh, right Jon? Laughter is good, no doubt. Laughter carries us through dark times, too. But not when the laugh is on you. You don’t give a shit, Jon Stewart.
This is where we are heading. This is what we fight against. This is what keeps us awake at night. And you just went ahead and added to it, instead. I was so happy you were back, Jon… I really was. I even promoted your comeback. I couldn’t wait for February 12, at 11 pm, Comedy Central, just like old times. And then you went ahead and laughed at me, Jon. Why would you do that, man? I trusted you. Damn…
Fuck you, @thedailyshow.
Fuck you, Jon Stewart.
Happy Friday, everyone.
