State Warns About Ivermectin Poisoning

Ivermectin is a drug for livestock, sold in feed stores to cure worms. But somehow people have been led to believe it can treat covid. Mississippi officials released a warning about the drug after 70% of the poison control calls have been about the drug.

Side effects associated with taking ivermectin include skin rash, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, seizures, coma and even death, the FDA reports.

On the other hand, their assholes are clean as a whstle. #noworms.

Old N-Word Clip Could Affect Election

An old clip recorded at Igby’s comedy club decades ago could effect Larry Elder ‘s run for governor of California. His repeated use of the N-word, in an apparent impression of O.J. Simpson defense attorney F. Lee Bailey is at issue.

One issue was Elder’s pronunciation of the N-word. He used an exaggerated tone, enunciating the “er” at the end of the word rather than using the “a” pronunciation, which is more commonly accepted among and used by Black people, studies have shown. KBLA morning host Dominique DiPrima, called the clips highly objectionable and there are calls for him to drop out of the race.

Since when can’t black people say the n-word?

Barry Manilow Saved the CNN Concert

Well the big NY show got rained out halfway through, but the night was salvaged after Barry Manilow called in to CNN and sang for Anderson Cooper from his dressing room. That inspired Elvis Costello to pop on and drop some breaking news, and we got a quick acoustic concert from the Killers too. Patti Smith also called in for an impromptu interview, making the night pretty special after all.

The world’s loss is Anderson Coopers gain.
