tonight i'm hitting the sack early because i have a flight so early i think i am getting up before i actually go to bed.
(curious: do you like super early flights over others? i do. as much as i hate getting up, there's something about early flights that make me feel important! and its fun to drink airplane coffee for some reason - makes me feel like i'm in a movie)
so i won't be live chatting the awesome show tonight (as much as i want to).
and tonights show is sooooooo good. even i was able to make 2 or 3 non cringeworthy jokes (as i get older, i realize my goals are getting more realistic).
i'll be in Austin tomorrow - maybe some of you will be there.
i won't be there long, and from what i can tell, i can't really even go anywhere to eat etc. the rules for traveling from texas to NY are really stringent. so i can't really go to bars etc. but i'll wave to you from the stage. I wanted to eat Chic fila but they're closed on sundays (god love em)
just a note -- and this is directed not at all of you, but a few.
I didn't just leave Twitter behind, i also left my Ggutfeld website behind - because it became overwhelmed not just with trolls, but people who were fed up or angry or just disliked my different hosts or guest. it's not worth naming who they are, because I don't listen. you can't like everyone. But at one point my GG website was overrun with thousands of messages about one person. and I couldn't read other messages because of that. That's one reason why i am here.
this place -- the gutter - is meant to be positive.
if you don't like juan or kat or tyrus or dagan - fine -- express it somewhere else, but not here.
i don't have any rules here, except for rejecting flippant negativity.
we are all doing are best.
the desire to be negative is natural -- god knows - i am the biggest offender.
i am a hypocrite. I can be negative all the time, and i have an outlet.
you folks dont. So i understand TOTALLY the frustration you feel when watching a show. in fact, when you see me on the Five, you can see the frustration in my face at times!
but i say this all the time: conflict makes me a better host. imagine how boring i would be if i wasn't tested every day. i would be like don lemon or chris cuomo - vacuous vessels who've not worked their intellectual muscles in years.
so i ask that when your'e here - its entirely natural to not like Joe Blow, or Jane Doe - but realize I am trying to escape that. And that's why i'm here.
having said that, i'm glad you're here with me!

Good afternoon to you all, my dear American cousins.
Well... on Monday Her Indoors told me that we were going camping as I had no treatments scheduled for this week.
Camping! says I, much surprised.
"Yes," she replied. "We're going to Clippesby Hall tomorrow morning. Now isn't that a nice surprise?"
Now isn't that a nice surprise? had the same air as when a Mafia capo invites somebody whose numbers don't add up to take a drive in the countryside.
"But all those pills and potions I have to take!" I protested.
"You can take them as well in a tent as you can at home," she insisted.
And indeed. All I've seen on the world for weeks has been home and the hospital. Or the hospital and home. A change would be nice.
Loading up the car and setting up the tent would be beyond me, though. "And I'm not letting you - with all the dexterity of a three-legged baby elephant - put up my precious new tent."
Her Indoors smiled. "Your mates are coming to load up the car, and I've paid extra for ...
I have to comment on the Biden hearing the other day. The Dems walking out the other day just proves that party is more important than country. Regardless of who is in the White House, what took place with Biden should never be allowed to happen again. Get real you assholes. He wasn’t in charge and we all know it. What the hell is wrong with those people?
