Visual journalism, media literacy, comics, ADHD & beer, not necessarily in that order. There's a kid and some dogs around here somewhere, too.

@372Pages Based on your talk about ol’ pie-hatin’ Doctor John, I thought you should know about Michael Showalter’s “The Baxter” - the perfectly fine guy in romcoms who only exists to get dropped for the hunk.

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

@oliver_arth Thank you! Expect your newsletters when the cock crows thrice. Or this afternoon, more likely.

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

Please consider helping out my journalism students by volunteering to read a few of their newsletters. If you're willing, you can sign up and provide your info via this survey link (feel free to share). Thanks in advance! https://t.co/vNmf0BHZDa @wvumediacollege @WVUMediaInno

@JeremyLittau I might have added that question to theirs, but I felt it was fair.

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

@JeremyLittau Thanks for the boost! I bit the bullet and came back to Twitter town for this, so it's nice to have it pay off.

[Mike Scollins @mikescollins]

I don't wanna make a broad generalization but you have to admit it's at least *interesting* that everyone who likes Elon Musk is the biggest loser you've ever met.

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

Well that was depressing.

1. By week’s end, a sizable percentage of the GOP base will believe an absurd conspiracy theory positing that Paul Pelosi was assaulted by his leftist gay lover.

Allow me to explain.

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

@MattGertz And of course they had to get "gay" in there because they always make their stories about what they fear.

[Jemaine Clement @AJemaineClement]

It's like when all the traps get re-opened in ghostbusters.

[Brandy Zadrozny @BrandyZadrozny]

Would give anything to be in this meeting.

When we play games as a family, my kid has learned how to lie low while my wife throws every weapon at her disposal at me, then pick up the pieces. The last time we played Risk, she conquered Asia.

[Kat🐱 Bair🐻 @kat_bair]

I bring yellow energy to board games as do probably many younger siblings who understood from a young age that “playing a game together” meant “losing a game.”

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

@MediaLawProf @dallasnews Ah yes, the "Baby, lemme EXPLAIN" policy.

Every night millions of people watch this gross caricature of a bullying rich asshole villain from an 80s sex comedy, and they apparently get what they're looking for from the experience; an inescapable indication that there is something deeply wrong with their souls.

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

I teach the earliest class of the day, and everybody's out of the office today, so I'm in the main office with this on top volume because sometimes Thursday needs a hand. https://t.co/tsRIGo70Z2

@GailSimone What do you think the St. Louis arch was for? They had to lure Paul Bunyan to the West somehow.

@AJamieCarbone This is a kid who turns toward the camera on his Nickelodeon show and tells us what he REALLY thinks.

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

@snickelsox Wait. Wait wait wait. Wait. You can just "make up" content?

[The Bob The @thebobthe]

@sickolliebr0 Not supposed to be too cold, so take the tent opportunity while you can.

Waffle House is staffed, inevitably, by a gray-haired white lady who calls everyone “hon” and offers you refills on your coffee and by a black man working the grill who gives the impression that if Elvis, Jesus, and DB Cooper walked in, arm in arm, he would not so much as blink.
