🚨OVERTIME 🚨

What’s your Twitter bias? Apparently I am blind to the right. Maybe the algorithm is off?

Mike Birbiglia and Fred Armisen. Two of my favorite comedians get together for a fantastic podcast. I don’t listen to a lot of podcasts. I just don’t have the time, and when you work in a podcast slaughterhouse, it’s like an invitation to go hunting. No real incentive. But Birbigs, who came to my college in the early aughts, is doing shows live for an at-home audience and we’re excited to support him tonight.

SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS!

I got my first dose of Pfizer today, and am lucky our state is (among others) well run.

Everybody get your shot!

And speaking of Fred Armisen…

I still maintain rather than this silly postcard system, the Feds should have integrated it with REALID as well. Just like the military does with DBIDS. It could have made a lot of things way easier.

The JV Team steps in to save the day. This Athletic item (members only) is fantastic and a paradigm of Dedicato Par Aevum.

The maga nationalists aren't sending their best. Or they are, which is, I suppose, funnier.

Who killed Officer Brian Sicknick?

The New York Times has the details, and they’re painful to watch, but you should.

That’s it for me for today. Thoughts? Hate mail? Comments? Drop me a line: swift@thebulwark.com. Stay safe and get your shot!
