It's a shame the Town Crier (just started reading that today) and Ye Olde Time News and Laughing Gallows stopped publishing. Not much humor on the 'stack, and what often gets billed as Humor by the 'stack folks is a far cry from it. Not me being a dick, but you click on the Humor from the homepage and it's either "I picked up my daughter from school today...heartwarming heartwarming..." or some political screed.
My next piece coming up on the 'stack is a horror piece, no humor, or rather no attempted humor.
I do like Jonathan Hodgeman (Secret Society) and Michael Ian Black too. So sad about Ye Olde Tyme...he was a big help to me early on as both a friend, follower, and initial influence for me to go on Substack. He will be missed.
"(but if you read even a smidge of my posts here, it’s obvious who I am voting for)"
I had no idea. I sort of inferred since a lot of "library/teacher" folks lean a certain way. The only time I ever suspected you stepping out of character is with your JK Rowling stuff, but even then I'm not so sure.
Some of my older posts during the Trump Administration we're still literary themed yet very damning of him as a leader. One of my favorite posts was about how Trump defended Bob Ewell after reading To Kill a Mockingbird. There was also one win after reading Native Son Trump tweeted that there are "fine people on both sides"
