This is from the channel Some More News for those curious of the source.
I always like watching their videos; I would share them with my friends and family more often, but I feel some of their skits would put some of them off. Otherwise I really like what they do and recommend people check them out.

What would they find off-putting about the coked up puppet pumping gallons of corned cream (just out of frame) into an apartment and making squelching noises while talking about it rotting?

Totally normal content. And they put it out as a podcast too, and it makes even better audio-only content.

Yeah you have to have a certain type of humor or some massive nostalgia for Cracked.

He's his own thing now; this specific quote/frame is from like 10 years ago

And he looks so fresh-faced and unweathered by the shitstorm of an American election year in this photo!

Is this pre-Warmbo? That might explain it.

I like how he looks older in this than he does on the most recent episode of Some More News where he had COVID.

Less tired though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He definitely does not look older in this?

[–] dessimbelackis 2 points 3 months ago

Almost commented that he looks like a baby here

… I guess now I have

Some more news is a good channel if you can survive the corny part of it. They gotta do something to break up the horrible news they report on.

The tone drives me nuts but the content is good

Without the goofy stuff I think Cody would end up ranting like Lewis Black

Saying develop empathy isn’t enough, there are a lot of ways someone can twist things around to say why it’s not good to be empathetic. It’s better to appeal to rational thinking and defeat self centered thinking by logically demonstrating that it’s suboptimal. You don’t even need anything super intellectual, just the Ten Commandments type stuff but within a humanist context as opposed to a God will punish you context. At least that what I think, but i could be wrong 🤷‍♀️

I'm ok with people not reading books but the rest is solid
