Summary

This week Jordan B Peterson sends us to the Taco Gulag as we check out his new song and music video, "The Postmodernist Drinking Song," a bewildering cacophony of circus music with screeds against postmodernist philosophers, alcohol, feminists, and communist fast food restaurants

Also: Elon Musk releases his new AI for blue check subscribers (at twice the price), and boy does this thing have a twisted sense of humor.

Finally: Alex chat is put to a screeching halt as a Patron cancels their membership over Alex's UPS work stories. We go through the excoriating feedback and debate whether to share 2 new stories that could make Alex seem too tough and cool.
