Hey! It’s Thursday, and these are Five Jokes!
Donate to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, The Carter Center, and/or Alliance for Middle East Peace.
Y’all hear about this?..
Disney and Hulu are merging into one app. Warning to the newly merged streaming service — “Finally!.. One place to watch Song of the South AND Louie” isn’t a good slogan.
Striking actors and Hollywood studios have reached a tentative agreement. Details of the deal are still emerging, but its safe to assume that the families of actors like Denzel Washington and Harrison Ford will be well compensated for the 2070 release of Indiana Jones & The Equalizer.
Tracy Chapman became the first Black woman to win a Country Music Association award. You know phrases like “He walked so that they could run…”? Well, apparently Tracy drove a fast car so that Lil Nas X could ride a horse.
The Vatican is getting closer to allowing transgender Catholics to be baptized. This comes after numerous tests showed that the holy water never boiled upon contact. “Guess I’ll microwave these noodles then.”
Finally…
The mystery over who GOP presidential candidate Tim Scott is dating ended at last nights debate. But to quote every Black woman — “Where’s my refund? I guessed the ending to this movie before I even stepped into the theatre.”
