Humor & Satire

If you’re reading this, you probably already know that I like making people laugh. Fortunately, I’ve found a few publications that dig my style.

Points in Case

PiC has been a good fit for my sense of humor. They publish weirder, riskier pieces that don’t fit the mold established by behemoths like McSweeney’s and The New Yorker who don’t appreciate my subtle genius.

• So Your Office Has Been Reclaimed by Wilderness
• Suggested Organizations for End-of-Year Charitable Tax Donations
• My Right to Wear a Beard of Bees Shall Not Be Infringed!
• Oh God Oh God Hide Me from the Horrible Noise, by Your Pet Dog
• In Which the Great Philosophers Discuss the Matter of Godzilla
• Woke Reboots for Classic Movies

Robot Butt

I wrote this piece for their “dystopian humor” theme week. I love the illustration they used for it!

Glossy News

This was my very first published piece, so it still holds a special place in my heart. It’s political satire, written during the 2019 Presidential primaries.
