There's a one minute video with the joke in the tweet.

Aside from from the obvious shit on whether you should wokescold stand-up comedians (of course you should), it made me think about the weird position straight cis dude gender nonconformity has in today's progressive spaces. Like there are people with trans flags in qrts explaining that a straight guy having his nails painted is a bad sign.

Here in Russia when I was growing up you could get beat up for being a guy with painted nails. One time I almost did.

      Maybe it's their fault. Like David Bowie was up to some shit.

          Isn't that a kabbala thing or something to do with his mom and like, apparently explicitly not a coke nail

            Oh- I wouldn't have a clue about any of that, it's just something I remember noticing from watching Penn & Teller's Bullshit in the Neolithic period

            a coke nail is a single nail that's longer than the others, to scoop powder up with. don't know if a single painted nail is a kabbala thing, if so i was accidentally a kabbalist last week lol

      It's not uncommon. Goths and punks were playing with gender presentation a long, long time ago. Like contemporary with Stonewall.
