I summarized this story in a comment the other day, but I'll go into more detail here, in what's known as a "thread." I once had an hour long conversation with the legendary comic book artist Neal Adams about his theory that the earth is hollow.

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities. Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

Please do not attempt to “dox” Jordan for his opinions re: the Academy Awards™.

Might be the closest thing we have to new Seinfeld

It would not be very difficult to convince every ICE agent that there is a protestor hiding in their own mouths. See what happens.

There is no alternative to the obvious solution.

I just watched the shooting video. It's a horrific beating and execution in the middle of the street. If local and state officials don't move to arrest everyone involved for murder, they need to resign. Making arrests will de-escalate the situation. Do nothing and this is going to explode.

Point taken, but I do not appreciate this disparagement of those who skipped class.

RIP Mr. Scott Adams. Dilbert was no Ziggy, but I believe everyone has to agree he was a character in a different comic strip.

Neither snow, nor sleet, nor “wintry mix” will keep me from having Ziggy comic strips described.

There is a “Shirley Temple” flavored variety of 7-Up available now (named after the drink named after the starlet), and I have an arrangement with my “Ralph’s guy” (named, coincidentally, Ralph) to make sure my stock is never depleted.

Yes, I am in consideration to be the new editor-in-chief of CBS News. No, I will offer no further comment on the matter pending negotiations. However, I am proud to present a new episode of The Daily Zig, in which Jordan and I ponder why Ziggy seems to lurk near mall Santas so often.

Barron Trump has an opportunity to do something interesting.

Unfortunately, the New School just canceled their Ziggy Studies PhD program and offered its sole professor (tenured; seven-figure salary; university-provided SoHo condominium) early retirement, so this podcast is the best a Ziggy scholar can get.

On this episode, I reveal the true secret behind Skinwalker Ranch.

people, you have the chance to put my book ahead of Olivia Nuzzi’s on the bestseller list. put aside all other considerations and think how objectively funny this would be. #1, that Mountain Goats guy. #2, Antivax Man Has My Heart. funniest list of the century. We can do this if we try

More like Tom Keepgoingpard. RIP

This is good news. I am working to secure a deal on offering our own Daily Zig-branded discount cellular telephone plan that will be slightly cheaper than the one offered by our competition, the Smartless podcast.
