(Tiago_R_Rebeiro) Dead Kennedys "Kinky Sex Makes the World Go 'Round"
"We've Got a Bigger Problem Now"
Jello Biafra, Dead Kennedys
Once upon a time a singer named Jello Biafra had a lot of good ideas for a California punk band called the Dead Kennedys (a name indicating the decline of the USA). He made albums with them and contributed to other releases like Wargasm (1982, Pax Records, PAX 4, LP) with the American War Machine song "Kinky Sex Makes the World Go 'Round." The DKs released many great songs with many great ideas but became so popular with non-punks that punks started to criticize them for getting less funny (brilliantly sarcastic or ironic) and more serious (preachy rather than clever) as time went on. The band disbanded and reformed without Jello, who released a spoken word album, No More Cocoons, with the genius "Message From Our Sponsors."

This work of pure comedic genius began as a BBC Radio play by Douglas Adams (who was the first to think to combine science fiction and comedy), the audio of which is presented here: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It became so popular that it became a book then a sequel then a series then a trilogy with additional installments that made calling it a "trilogy" more and more misleading. It is perhaps the single funniest piece of work we have ever heard, a masterpiece.
*Sarcasm* Who does this patriarchal, sexist, misogynist, capitalist, female-exploiting, dominating, degrading male chauvinist p*g Hefner think he is making sense and being well-spoken?
Bark like a d*g, you S.O.B! How dare come on The Dick Cavett Show prepared with that smug confidence of knowing all the right things to say and actually making a few good points when we all know what you've done! Dick, are you going to let him answer like that?!
You've set women back centuries, not to mention the poor girls and ladies of the world to everyone exposed to your smut gateway magazine that opened the floodgates to an avalanche of pornographies and filth. Filth, I say!
Wives or "playmates," Hef? - Wives. - Oh nice!
You should be, you should be...well, I don't what you should be! Who am I to should all over you? You're as much a symptom as a cause of our moral decay. Only a Republican pedophile like Mr. Trump could restore us and MakeAmericaGreatAgain for the first time after that Democrat pedo Mr. Biden nearly ruined this nation!
Cenk Uyghur finally wakes up to fact that 9-11 was an inside job with a pre-planned cover up meant to serve as a pretext for WAR (on Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Yemen, Somalia, and others on a list of at least seven meant to go down like dominos)
(YouTube Movies & TV) "When We Went MAD!" (full film)
Go mad. Enlist. Kill for patriotism and bank profits.
MAD is an American humor magazine that was launched in 1952 and is currently published by DC Comics, a unit of the DC Entertainment subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery.
MAD was founded by editor Harvey Kurtzman and publisher William Gaines [2], launched as a comic book series before it became a magazine. It was widely imitated and influential, affecting satirical American media, as well as the cultural landscape of the late 20th century, with editor Al Feldstein increasing readership to more than two million during its 1973–1974 circulation peak [3].
It is the last surviving title in the EC Comics line, which sold Mad to Premier Industries in 1961 but closed in 1956.
Mad publishes satire on all aspects of American life and popular culture, politics, entertainment, and public figures. Its format includes TV and movie parodies and satire articles about everyday occurrences that are changed to seem humorous.
Mad's mascot, Alfred E. Neuman, is usually on the cover. More: Mad (magazine)

(Saturday Night Live) Nov. 1, 2025: Zohran Mamdani [pronounced So Ran Ma'am Donny] (here played by Ramy Youssef), corrupt Andrew Cuomo (Miles Teller), and Curtis Sliwa (Shane Gillis) debate one another in the race to become New York City's next mayor. #SNL #MilesTeller #BrandiCarlile. NYC Mayoral Debate Cold Open - SNL. The election takes place on Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2025, so get out and vote.
See, Kids, sometimes it doesn't work out. If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal. Corrupt Trump pardon's corrupt NY Mayor Eric Adams, who kissed the Orange One's butt and appeased his ego as well as pledging his allegiance to crooked Republicans. He had to to stay out of jail.
Sometimes it does work out, but who would bet on it? Trump keeps winning in court, the court of public opinion, and de facto on the ground.
I should run to be Trump's choice!
Judges may order him to keep ICE in his pants and out of our cities, but does he listen? Judges may order him to fund SNAP or food stamps to keep 1 out of 8 Americans from food insecurity (going hungry, malnourishment, malnutrition, and starvation), but does he listen?
He's got corrupt likely-rapist Justice Kavanaugh and others on the Supreme Court back his Agenda 2025 crimes, which Homan and Bannon must have had a grand time writing.
I run this country, Ghislane, I pick who wins.
Now if Andrew Cuomo can be resuscitated and put to work for Trump and Israel, what was the chance that millennials, youth, idealists, anti-Zionist Jews, and the diverse array of New Yorkers were going to be able to stop him?
What if Trump becomes official U.S. Dictator?
Progressive Democrat self-proclaimed socialist (like successful Kshama Sawant and hopeful candidate Katie Wilson) Mamdani meant well, even though progressive commentator Jimmy Dore points out that he has already caved to the power elite. He's an improvement but far from ideal, far from perfect, far from a real solution.
NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo and his administration come under fire for underreporting COVID deaths in nursing homes after he controversially directed homes to accept infectious elders.
