Not that anybody asked, but the last time the @NYKnicks won a championship, the Periodic Table had 11-percent fewer Elements.

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.

Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

LOVE seeing people discover the Easter egg we hid in plain sight.

[Jake Plunkett @JakePlunkett]

Getting to direct the final shots of this show is the honor of my life.

I will miss this crew considerably.

Dear Stephen Colbert,

You may be no fan of dictionaries or reference books, but we're fans of yours.

When you travel on the 0.028% of tracks in the USA capable of supporting 160 mph, it feels good to see what train travel was like in Japan in 1964.

Colbert show truly in its 'no f's left to give' era https://t.co/agDhxdFwqU

Julia Louis-Dreyfus revived "Veep's" Selina Meyer to roast Stephen Colbert before "The Late Show" ends:

• “Your cancellation gave Donald Trump so much pleasure I always think of you as the Stormy Daniels of late night.”

• “Don’t be too hard on yourself, you’re as relevant as the Bill of Rights”

• “You’re Irish, but you decided to pronounce your name to sound French? That’s like putting lipstick on a pig, which I understand Irish people do before they fuck it.”

• “So we have watched you age on camera from a spunky kid on ‘The Daily Show’ to a canceled old late night host whose jowls look like the scrotum of… well, a canceled old late night show.”

• “When my people said I should come and say farewell to you, I was hoping it would be more of a hospice situation.”

• “I don’t want you to worry, the only reason everyone rallied around Jimmy Kimmel is because he’s more popular.”

• “All you’ve really got to do is hold on until the corporate jizz guzzler who fires you gets fired, and he’ll be gone once he runs out of new cities for ‘NCIS.'”

#OTD in 1849, the Astor Place or Opera House Riots occur, one of the deadliest civil insurrections in NY history. It’s a tale
of culture clash in the mid-19th c. tinderbox of our neighborhood as immigrants + the native-born jostled for power + control: https://t.co/zKwFaQSOb4
