“A new law signed by Florida’s governor, Ron DeSantis, this week which would fine social media companies for removing or censoring anyone running for office in the state. According to this law – which they know won’t hold up – banning a candidate from your platform will result in fines of up to $250,000 a day. Gee, I wonder who lives in Florida and is banned from Twitter and may have had a tiny hand in this?
Though DeSantis claimed in a press conference that the law was ‘for every Floridian’, he showed his hand with a factually inaccurate rant about Twitter’s ban of Trump after he incited the 6 January attack on the Capitol – ‘when you deplatform the president of the United States but you let Ayatollah Khomeini talk about killing Jews, that is wrong,’ said DeSantis. The ayatollah died in 1989, by the way, 17 years before Twitter.
But we get it, Ron. You know how when you go on a road trip and you have to stop to pee at some like sketchy gas station in the middle of nowhere and the toilet seat has like a swastika carved into it for some reason? And you think, ‘Why would anyone take the time to carve anything into toilet seat, let alone something horrible like a swastika?’ Anyway, Florida is that toilet seat.” —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.”
