Biden is over the moon (for Gil) - poem

Biden is over the moon (for Gil)

The food I can afford

Is barely keeping me alive

And Biden is over the moon

No baby formula on the shelves

And Biden is over the moon

The water in Flint still

Tastes like hell

And Biden is over the moon

The air in the sky is

Starting to smell

And Biden is over the moon

Nothing has fundamentally

Changed

With Biden over the moon

Here’s 40 Billion more for Ukraine

And Biden is over the moon

No truth, no peace and no justice

And Biden is over the moon

The press pretends not to notice

That Biden is over the moon

Children in classrooms are being

Gunned down

And Biden is over the moon

Nowhere to go but underground

While Biden is over the moon

The price of gas is going up

Corrupt politicians don’t give

A fuck

And if all that shit wasn’t

Enough

Biden is over the moon

As opposed to the last administration, which delivered armed pricks (then you smoke it up on 4/20)

April 2021

“When Joe Biden was running, he promised 100 million shots in 100 days, but we’ve blown past that barrier, baby. The U.S. is now administering about three million shots per day, on average. This administration is delivering pricks in arms. As opposed to the last administration, which delivered armed pricks.” —Stephen Colbert

“Way to go, Joe! Getting it done early. Although, supporters of the previous president are quick to point out that he was able to finish his entire presidency a whole four years before his original goal.” —Stephen Colbert

“You know more people are vaccinated when pajama sales go down and Spanx go up.” —Jimmy Fallon

“I have to say, this is going to be a solid plan. You get vaxed on 4/19, then you smoke it up on 4/20.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic. 

A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”

 

I really miss the laughs, the energy, and of course, keeping the lost wallets (On the Road to Guillotineland)

March 2021

“Well, it’s been exactly one year since we’ve had an audience, and I’ve got to say, I really miss the laughs, the energy, and of course, keeping the lost wallets.” —Seth Meyers

“I remember that day like it was yesterday. Everything was shutting down, people were scared, grocery stores were ransacked, so I got up on a chair in the office and gave an inspirational speech where I said to my staff, ‘Gang, I know you’re terrified, but this is our moment. People are counting on us. So let’s get out there and put on the best [expletive] show of our lives!’ And then I looked down and the room was empty except for a tumbleweed that rolled past, stole a bottle of Purell off my desk and then left.” —Seth Meyers

“It’s also been one year since we all trapped ourselves inside our homes with stockpiles of gin and red wine, watching ‘Tiger King’ and ‘Love Is Blind’ while clinging to our last shreds of toilet paper like a plank floating in the water after a shipwreck.” —Seth Meyers

“The Stimulus bill is enormously popular, with 75% of Americans and 59% of Republicans approving the measure, and yet Republicans have derided it as a so-called partisan bill. But some of the most galling behavior, came from Republicans who tried to take credit for aspects of the bill while still voting against it, such as Senator Roger Wicker, a ‘no’ vote who tweet-bragged about stimulus money for small businesses. I know these guys are shameless, but I’m still shocked. They’re the kind of guys who would run out and try and lift Tom Brady on their shoulders while wearing Chiefs jerseys.” —Seth Meyers
