It's my birthday so I'm taking the evening off and skipping the Trump rally in South Carolina. I really appreciate all the kind birthday wishes -- they really mean a lot 🥹 And if you'd like to buy me a birthday drink you can do so here. Thank you!

The thing with Aaron is that it feels like he can't possibly be a real person. This is for two reasons: 1) He is so dogged and prolific, and 2) his surname sounds like something your mother would enter as her sixth choice in a particularly frustrating Wordle.

Happy Birthday🥳🍰🍨!!! Thank you for going through all of the ick (the voice, face, the bulls*it for posterity sake 🥰) 😊

happy happy birthday I'm disappointed only because you're my best source of information and of course I'm right here in South Carolina but in Charleston so relevant put away from the site itself. Where will we get our news!? Just kidding. Happy birthday love you bro

🤣🤣🤣👍🏾. Happy Birthday !!!🎂🎈🎊 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🕺

Happy Birthday Aaron, and as always, many thanks for what you do. I LIVE in South Carolina and am ALSO skipping the Trump rally. SPOILERS: Men's hot asses, water hurricanes, did you know "dumb" is spelled with a "B" (many people don't know that), and "If Republicans don't win, you get nothing." 😂

The ultimate power move: scheduling your personal joy to conflict with a political circus. Proof that the most effective form of resistance is sometimes just a really good slice of cake.

I’ve got you covered: -Jon Husted’s ass -Mutilization -You get $5k if you vote red -Bailout for (insert group suffering from Trump’s policies) -Somali-Americans -Super duper healthcare plan -Double jerkoff dancing
