By the time you read this I’ll be at Disney World. Not because I won the Super Bowl, but because my particular form of depression makes me want to retreat to the comfort of childhood as often as possible. I need to set regular goal posts to stay motivated and slog through the daily morass, and unfortunately the things that work best are soulless pop culture events related to things I’ve loved since I was young—a comic book movie, or the kind of dingy rock shows I’ve been going to since high school, or the release of a new videogame. Nothing works better than a trip to Disney, though, probably because nothing makes me feel more like a child. Unsurprisingly, none of these things leave me feeling as immediately depressed as a trip to Disney World, because none of them so thoroughly highlight exactly how far I now am from childhood. Also because there is something a little weird about a grown man going there by himself multiple times a year. Life’s a delicate balance and I tend to trample all over it like I’ve got big dumb elephant stumps.
But yeah, that’s my Monday. How about yours? Hopefully the team you hate more lost the game last night and all the ads brought a smile to your heart. If they didn’t, maybe these tweets will. Only you know the answer to that. Read ‘em and see how you feel. We’re here to help.
all broke dudes secretly want to do comedy and all rich dudes secretly want to be president. there is exactly one man who is safe to date and if he finds or loses $5 it’s all over

the notion of taxing the super rich may not be as popular as it it should be because respect, admiration and empathy for the wealthy continues to be so deeply engrained in our culture, along with the hope that we too can be like them one day. Anyway I’m an Ariel. pic.twitter.com/LxlOQqY0lG

This Porzingis trade means the Knicks have enough money this offseason to pursue 2 or even 3 new PR people to explain why they didn’t sign Kevin Durant

look, Schultz had one brilliant insight in his life: that if you open a milkshake shop but pad it with earth tones and the NYTimes and Jazz CDs and put espresso in the milkshakes, drinking milkshakes at 7am will, somehow, be socially acceptable. This is it. $3.4B for this.

It’s hilarious that you can be a billionaire and think to yourself, “hmm… I don’t think I have enough – I should be president of america” but then when people ask for basic healthcare it’s like, “whoa entitled much?”

I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of Great British Bake-Off episodes and then asked it to write a Great British Bake-Off episode of its own. Here is the first page. pic.twitter.com/OUUqjcxBwC

Pete Davidson is going through A List actresses like napkins, meanwhile brilliant female comedians are trying to explain to our 9,000th unemployed tinder date that “I’m not too intimidating, I swear!” and that no, he could not “probably do comedy” if he tried it. https://t.co/IGNycPk6Kj
