Okay, I can't stop thinking about this moon and sun thing. I don't say this to dunk on Chelsea Handler (I have no personal opinion on her at all), but that is fascinating. Assuming she's telling the truth here, ow do you get to the age of forty and believe what she said here about the sun and the moon? That the sun and the moon are not the same thing is not an obscure fact. This is not a deficit of intelligence - you don't need to be smart to know this, and she's clearly smart enough to have had the career she had. This must just be the result of a mind-blowing lack of curiosity.

So many questions. How did she reconcile all the times she saw the moon out during the day? When she saw the moon at night, why did she think there was no daylight? When she thought of the moon landings, did she think people were walking on the surface of the sun? Why did her sister think it's rare to see the sun and the moon at the same time? What did she think was happening when the whole world is talking about a solar eclipse? What did she think was happening when the whole world is talking about a lunar eclipse?

Nah it's because of "cancel culture" and "woke culture". Comedy isn't fun anymore because comedians and comediennes play it too safe nowadays. Back when Joan Rivers existed, she was a fucking RIOT and would bring hell to comedy and it was Spicy and fun and people back then weren't sensitive snowflakes but nowadays you say one wrong thing and do one wrong move and it's "so and so is CaNcElLeD 🙄🤪". The fact that Chelsea Handler and Howard Stern have toned down their comedy just for the sake of appealing to the masses and to a wider audience is what's wrong with comedy. The meaning of comedy is to be unapologetic and to literally say what's on your mind and to have ZERO FILTERS. But if you start filtering your comedy then it starts to become TRASH 🗑 🗑 I miss when the world wasn't so sensitive. The world is so shit now 😪 💔🤦
