Remember when that couple of 50 or 60 year old white folks stood outside their old museum-looking mansion with a pistol and a machine gun while a peaceful protest marched by? That was this week. It might feel like it was a few months ago, but nope, it just happened. 2020 has ruined, disrupted, or undermined pretty much every part of life, but its biggest victim of all was time. We’re moving at light speed while not going anywhere at all. It’s fucked, and sometimes the only thing you can really do about it is make dumb jokes on Twitter. So here are the best of those dumb weeks from this week—the funniest, smartest, sharpest things we’ve seen on the dumb social media app since last Friday. Check ‘em out and remember to follow everyone of these folks if you’re on Twitter yourself.

Lemmy: AND DON’T FORGET THE JOKER
Bruce Wayne: frantically running out of the arena fuck fuck shit hell fuck
hadn’t seen this one until now but it really completes the scene for me. what’s more American than marching barefoot and wild-eyed onto the front lawn of your ostentatious faux-castle in a mustard-stained shirt to brandish guns at people protesting police killings pic.twitter.com/UL18l0V6RX
If I were in a Coen Brothers movie I would simply not let a single bad decision escalate out of control until my life was ruined along with everything I ever cared about
The fact that Carl Reiner hung out with the same buddies for the last 70-odd years of his life, just like eating deli sandwiches and trying to make each other laugh, is the most crystalline expression of “squad goals” I’ve ever seen. I just think it’s great.
now and then I run across someone who doesn’t know the creator of Dilbert is full-on batshit crazy so if you’re one of those people sorry for ruining your day pic.twitter.com/fFW509yZzv
