Here's a rare photo of me doing crowdwork, taken at the Ice House in Pasadena. God willing, I will be doing a 100% crowdwork free set this Saturday evening on the very same stage. It's a 5pm show, your kids will be fine if you sneak out for a few hours.

@MicheleLewis I wasn't aware of that second part!

There is still some joy in Twitter. 😭

@jeffplatt @solana @WSOP @LukeJu22 @SolanaEvents They should also put on a comedy show…

[Joe “Stapes” Stapleton @Stapes]

Pretty cool!

[Jeff Platt @jeffplatt]

Can't wait for you all to see how this great partnership w/ @solana & @wsop continues to grow at WSOP Paradise. 

Before that, super excited to share that I'll be hosting a fireside chat with our reigning World Champion @LukeJu22 at @solanaevents Breakpoint November in London!

@VaughnvonVonn Same!

[Joe “Stapes” Stapleton @Stapes]

@MicheleLewis Huh. Don't spend much time there and most of what I see is entertainment news and thirst traps (my kind of stuff).

(whispers to friend) "so who was on first?"

[Joe “Stapes” Stapleton @Stapes]

@abbiemaley “I have notes.” Is that the catchphrase??

[Joe “Stapes” Stapleton @Stapes]

@GarryGates @Dexerto We literally walked out of our last one despite having paid for the weekend.

[Franklin Leonard @franklinleonard]

Absolutely crazy the consistency with which the Trump family keeps ending up on the side of grown men who abuse young girls.
