A Black comedian called Earthquake made a joke about this back in the late 90’s:

He said that late stage capitalism is so relentless, that one day we’ll have to pay for oxygen the same way we do for clean water:

“Water supposed to be FREE. Watch, one day n*ggas gon be calling the utility company like, ‘I wanna put my air in my momma name’…”

Wish I could find a video clip, but even my google-fu is not that strong.

Jazz funerals are for people we love and will miss, for 2020 we’ll be more likely to send it out by singing “i’ll be glad when you’re dead.”

Maybe we should give 2020 a gender reveal party.

True. The celebration will also be for those we lost this year.

It doesn’t matter what 2020s gender is, it fucked everyone anyway.

As soon as Mayor Cantrell green lights the first post-shutdown second line, I imagine it will be one hell of a sight. There have been so many that should have been communally celebrated that weren’t. Given how awful 2020 is, I can’t imagine there will be one before 2021, but I can’t wait for the day we can start to go out and celebrate and start to heal

Heathens…

Someday after the fall, you’ll roam the wasteland looking for the indestructable, ageless peeps. Food treasures for centuries. They’ll be around when Twinkies have turned to dust.

The Good Old Days

The point is not that the pollution is no big deal, it is that it used to be really really bad and then we somewhat fixed it.

Ends on a positive note, if that’s allowed.

That is actually probably true. Future paleontologists will identify this as “The Peep Layer” and assume we worshipped them as gods.

That’s the old one with Paul Newman and the nudist colony? I love that movie.
