It’s a bummer that “making it” wealth-wise seems to expose some comedians’ limitations.
It doesn’t have at all the same racial/bigoted spin, but David Sedaris has gotten really hard to relate to (and way less funny IMO) in the past few years.

And, I don’t follow her closely so may have missed something, but Paula Poundstone seems to still be hilarious and not punching down, and I first saw her as a kid when she was starting in stand-up in the mid-eighties.

Betty White was indeed a notable exception.
There’s a reason why she stayed working through 6+ decades; she knew how to adapt and never got stuck in the past.

…and she was cool, sweet, and funny AF the entire time. A rara avis.

Same guy. This is after they let him board his connecting flight in spite of disruptive behavior on his flight to Singapore.

OMG I watched some of it by chance on youtube and was only half paying attention to what was on. It was such an off feeling skit for me I was kind of just waiting for it to end. I don’t watch any GOT based stuff so the unexpected reprisal of old Dave Chapelle tropes in that context just almost felt like it was making fun of Dave Chapelle.

Hope she realizes that if she wants to stay there, she’ll need to bleach her hair.

Some kind of ray when they come through the metal detectors to work. Fox isn’t letting any guns inside.

This is a quote from Johnny Teague, a candidate for Texas’s House District 7 who lost 63.8% to 36.2% to Democrat Lizzie Fletcher:
Sure He did. He even proclaimed it in Genesis 1:3: “And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.” So obviously He wanted us to use solar power.
Perhaps northern states should offer homeless individuals one-way bus tickets to Texas and Florida. With winter coming, those people are much less likely to freeze to death in the southern states, right?

Can we please not even joke about that? Moving people against their will, or even incentivizing “problems” to relocate elsewhere, is cruel and often illegal.
Let’s just take care of each other, OK?

Even handed for the Herald. Where people like Howie Carr denigrated trans people in their rag for decades.
