To the extent that “cancel culture” has any meaning anymore, it absolutely means “when rich white people get caught doing shit”

With the cancellation of Regan & Goneril, it's obvious the woke mobs have gotten to the Bard himself..."

Roy, I look forward to Bari’s next expose at the Westminster Dog Show. Some of those mutts look pretty jacked up. And what better target for Antifa/cancel culture than man’s best friend?

Who here hasn't been cancelled because the Times is not running our insights?

Oh, wait, canel now means being caught redhanded breaking the rules or laws. Don't do the crime if you can't stand to be canceled.

(Somewhat off-topic: Roy, you mentioned you were scaling back the unlocked newsletter posts so as to better pay your bills? I think I speak for everyone here when I say that, if you're struggling, I'll cheerfully pay more for your work than I do now, and even drop you a tenner or so on top of it. You're more than worth it. Just letting you know!)

It’s not just the electoral college and death penalty, the whole Trump cult of “president forever,” and then his misbegotten whelps assuming the Oval Office, reeks of monarchy. The King of Queens, Earl of Mar-a-Lago and Duke of Bedminster, Defender of the Fake and Protector of the Garble.

This is aces. Weiss’s Gish gallop of bullshit is perfect, and the “chromatic scale” detail was sublime.

Brilliant. Don't cancel Mister Ed.

Mr. Ed bounced into my head last night--the theme song and the ridiculous way he was always shot in that stall to avoid the question of whether he had a body--for what seemed like no conceivable reason. Now I wonder if it was a disturbance in the Force.

Pillars of our great culture, indentured servitude and the death penalty, to say nothing of fashions named after a burg in Rajasthan. I'm not cheating. I'm not breaking the rules. It's not privilege. It's heritage.
