My first three months in NYC had me scamming target for air mattresses. Came up with one, it popped after a week or two, bought a new one: traded it in when it inevitably popped, lather, rinse, repeat.
The day I was able to buy a mattressโฆnot a BED just a mattress was one of my proudest moments.
Eventually managed to buy a crappy frame and a surprisingly resilient futon.

As a Venezeulan thats exactly how I feel. Maduro 100% deserves being in jail, but at the same time, having the us army coming, bombing tactical places, and taking the president without first asking the venezuelan opposition leaders, kinda makes you go "oh no, not like that!" specially cuz the whole electoral poder is still under Maduro's people control, the congress is pro maduro, the electoral system cant be trusted and the military still support Maduro. Like the problem was very much NOT fixed by just taking Maduro, and now that the US is supporting Delcy having a regime change into a democratic elected leader seems further away than it has been in years.

Did Josh just describe a whole episode of South Park? The kids didn't want to keep playing baseball, so they kept trying to lose. The side story had Randy Marsh fighting the dads on the other teams

Man remember when this came out two months ago and we were all worried tRump was gonna start a war with venezuala?
Feels like it's been 37 years.

I'm so thankful you come up for me to watch. We so need laughs in these times. Btw, my kids are around 20 years older than you, and they got participation trophies way back when they were little. We tried to praise what they did that was good and praise effort whenever we could see they were paying attention and trying hard, but whoever came up with that concept really messed things up for all the kids that should have been singled out for achievement more than for just showing up. A lot of adults are warped into thinking that mediocrity = entitlement.
@camilocano4326
May 5, 2026 at 6:34 am
I think you are missing a very important aspect about Venezuelaยดs economy and why there are so much poverty in that country, itยดs because of all the sanctions U.S goverment put over there. I donยดt say Maduro was a great president but maybe you can give your audience the whole context of what is going on over there.

Watching from Syracuse where it is currentlyโฆ SNOWING. Easter is in 3 weeks. So weโre most likely hiding Easter Eggs in the snow this year. Again ๐. Somehow at this exact moment, snow has lost its ability to enchant and or delight me. Because unless it is in a snow globe, a sunny beach and a strawberry daiquiri are calling to me ๐.

Theres an irony of ironys about trump and the insurrection act shit. Because Trump has been found criminally guilty and convicted , of inciting an insurrection he was forbidden from running for president. But the supreme fucking court while agreeing that this is true, forbid the states from enforcing it for BIZARE REASONS that very few lawyers have been able to comprehend, whilst simultaneously also forbidding the fed from enforcing it (because states have juristiction, thus effectively making that section of the constitition meaningless. He's not SUPPOSED to be president, but the supreme court ruled that nobody is allowed to stop him. And THIS is the guy thats keeps threatening people with the insurrection act?
