It dawned on me that Stephen puts invisible props carefully away, yet throws physical props randomly across the stage. Curious.

[@charlie-obrien]

He has to use those invisible props over and over again.

[@Worldbuilder]

Excuse me - do you not know how much invisible props cost?

[@sylvia106]

Except for the Biden glasses..

[@awaredeshmukh3202]

I think it's because it breaks the suspension of disbelief of the invisible prop if you just "forget about it". Physical props, of course, don't require suspension of disbelief.

MLK received a DOCTORATE and had a DAY named after him. He was a PLAGIARIST & a SERIAL ADULTERER, yet he gets a PASS, while other Blacks are condemned for their faults! Herschel Walker and his past sins. Civil rights campaigner the Rev Ralph Abernathy was the man who cradled King the day he was killed by an assassin’s bullet in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1968. But in 1989, Abernathy - who succeeded King as the movement’s leader - incurred the eternal wrath of his allies and accusations of a Judas-like betrayal after he confirmed that long-standing rumours about his old friend’s rampant sexual appetites were true. In his autobiography, Abernathy said King - whose 1953 marriage to Coretta Scott produced four children - had a ‘weakness for women’. King, a pastor from the age of 25, ‘understood and believed in the Biblical prohibition against sex outside marriage,’ said his friend. ‘It was just that he had a particularly difficult time with that temptation.’

@@longlivedemocracy756 EXACTLY! They're ALL like that! You know, when I was in my late teens and early 20's, I spent a lot of time working with NOW (National Organization of Women) and other women's rights groups and pro choice groups and marching for our right to choose, among other things that were, at that time - although, in nothing like the kind of danger we're experiencing now - in danger of being lost. The country was nearing the end (although, of course, we HOPED it was coming to the end, we weren't certain) of 12 years of Republican presidency; and, in my state (California), for example, in the hands of some Very conservative Republicans as well. Anyway, there were always very loud counter - protesters at our rallies and marches and, quite often - as I enjoy speaking with people, in general, and learning about them and their views - I'd end up chatting with them at the end ( or afterward). THE ONE THING THAT A HUGE, HUGE NUMBER OF THE ANTI - CHOICE WOMEN HAD IN COMMON WITH EACH OTHER - AND, WHEN I SAY, " A HUGE, HUGE NUMBER OF THEM," I MEAN 98 - 99% - WAS THAT THEY THEMSELVES, PRIOR TO DEVELOPING THEIR EXTREME, FANATICAL, ANTI-CHOICE STANCE, HAD GOTTEN ABORTIONS. 🤔 ASIDE FROM THAT, I ALSO KNEW, IN MY PERSONAL LIFE, MANY WOMEN WHOM, ALTHOUGH THEY WEREN'T ANTI-CHOICE ACTIVISTS, MANY WOMEN MY AGE, BUT MANY, AND PREDOMINANTLY, MIDDLE AGED WOMEN - FRIENDS OF MINE, MOTHERS OF FRIENDS, MOTHERS/AUNTS, ETC., OF BOYFRIENDS, OLDER COWORKERS, ETC. - HAD, ALSO, HAD ABORTIONS. THE INTERESTING THING WAS THAT, ALTHOUGH SOME OF MY PRO-CHOICE FRIENDS AND ACQUAINTANCES HAD ALSO HAD ABORTIONS, MOST OF THEM, INCLUDING MYSELF, HAD NOT. THIS HAD ALOT TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT, PRIMARILY, THEY PRACTICED SAFE SEX, INCLUDING BIRTH CONTROL, AND - WOW, WHADDYA KNOW, IT WORKS 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️!!! MY POINT IS THAT YOU ARE EXACTLY RIGHT...ISN'T IT SO DISGUSTINGLY, IRRITATINGLY AND OBNOXIOUSLY HYPOCRITICAL OF THEM?!? I CAN'T STAND IT! THST DOESN'T EVEN TOUCH ON ALL OF THE HUGE NUMBERS OF MEN - AND SO MANY OTHER RABIDLY ANTI-CHOICE CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS AND POLITICIANS HAVE BEEN EXPOSED, ASIDE FROM THIS GUY - WHO, JUST IN THE PAST FEW YEARS, HAVE BEEN EXPOSED FOR HAVING DONE THE EXACT SAME THING!! ANOTHER PARTICULARLY DISGUSTING THING ABOUT THEM IS THAT THEY ARE, ALSO, RABIDLY ANTI - BIRTH CONTROL!! The funny thing, though - and I don't know if you ever find yourself thinking or saying this, but, ASTOUNDINGLY, and I can't believe I could still say/think these things OR figure out why or how I still do, but I do 🤷‍♀️ - is that, whenever I hear of, yet, another of these cases/situations, I still, to this day, find myself saying and/or thinking things such as, "Can you believe this?!?" or, " I can't believe this!!" and, " How has he got the nerve to be so hypocritical?!" and even, "How can she/he think he/she has got the right to try to deny others the right to make the choice that he/she made and which gave/allowed her/him the ability to have/make a life that they might not have/probably wouldn't have been possible had they had a child?!?!" or, "Howcan he think he has the right to deny a woman her right to choose taking an action is best for her - AND ANY POTENTIAL CHILD - for her own reasons, when he, possibly, was the prime mover in a situation in which another woman made that SAME, EXACT CHOICE, a choice which was, clearly, one that, although he says its so horrible and/or is, essentially, murder, but one that he, clearly, was willing to make when it was convenient for himself" and, lastly, "how in the hell is it that these women/these men can have the gall to say, with a straight face, that they have the right to , so very hypocritically and with such pseudo self-righteousness, that we don't deserve, at the very least, the rights to the same choices that they, themselves, were able - AND WILLING - to make when they were in thst situation, just because THEY feel guilty for making - or, maybe, simply because they are control freaks?!?" I can't believe that I can still be naive enough to be shocked by and/or aghast at this behavior, but maybe its because, despite how disgustingly often it occurs in our politicians - and even, as I've mentioned, in people who aren't politicians (which, I suppose, is simply due to the ease with which many people - particularly, those who are eager to push their views and or beliefs on others, are control or power freaks, and/or have religious or other beliefs about "morals" and/or science (along with little or no education on the latter) that are so weak and/or shaky that, in order to feel as though they are firm and confident, and to not fear or worry that they're wrong (or, i.e., thst they'll lose their faith), the "need" to either push their beliefs on others to the extent that they become convinced, too, or, at the very least, theyneed to push the results of or consequences of their beliefs on others, i.e. to, for example, change the laws so that everyone else has no choice but to have their lives run as if, or to have no choice but to HAVE TO live as if they and their beliefs are "Right." What a bunch of foul crap! This behavior comes from the same desperately self righteous, yet terrified, place as those a**holes desperate efforts to ruin libraries, literacy, in general and education - education, in general, but, especially, secular education. Look at history, and the, for centuries, successful attempts, by the Catholic church, to deny the right of education and literacy to anyone who hadn't been and wasn't, also, STILL being brainwashed by the church. These are the people who are constantly trying to bring back prayer to public schools. God forbid people get a well rounded, secular and intelligent education that will teach them how to use critical thinking! How ever will we control them!?! ALL OF THIS HYPOCRISY, DESPERATE NEED AND ATTEMPTS TO CONTROL US - ESPECIALLY WOMEN, BTW - COME FROM, BASICALLY, THE SAME PLACE. I guess, though, thst my naivety must come from the fact I must still be shocked by the fact that, as much as these sorts of hypocrisy occur, I still cannot believe how many of us are, in spite of how blatantly wrong it is, still completely and utterly careless of that fact, really, as long as they can get what they want.....🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ SMH..

Up until that point the ad was just fremdscham, but less than I expected it to be. But this deadpan delivery came out of nowhere and saved the entire skit.

[@HughLlewellyn]

Sorry about your grandma. 😢 I lost my sweet step mother to covid in the first year too. Because of idiots like the fake bikers in the ad who didn't feel a need to protect the vulnerable people around them by wearing masks or staying home when they got sick. I'm full of rage about that but yeah, I agree. This was one of the most ridiculous, embarassing, hilarious political ads I've ever seen. My step mom would have laughed at it.

But the midwest --just lousy with white bikers, including the 'supremacist' variety. I grew up in Iowa and there were tons of them there, but not nearly as many as in Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin, from all who talked about such things.
