If you’ve still clung to your Twitter — I mean, X — account since the space guy turned it into a Nazi party, congratulations! You’re both persistent and brave. Because seriously, I don’t know how all the defaults get set there, but one day I had Twitter, with comedy, food, and the occasional lefty article, and the next I had X, where my entire feed was made up of Republican members of Congress, conspiracy theorists, Trump apologists, and Benny Johnson.

If you’re not sure who Benny Johnson is, that’s because he’s never said anything original.

But he does think he’s funny, and apparently, so does the X algorithm. His articles, comments, and videos are all over the social media platform, just sitting there being terrible.

The latest example of how side-splittingly funny Benny is involves talking to Ted Cruz (who is also convinced he should be in stand-up) about Representative Eric Swallwell’s penis. I’m not sure how the subject — ahem — came up, but Benny and Ted seemed pretty eager to discuss it.

The newest thing conservatives are freaking out about is the so-called “tuck-friendly” swimsuit. I can see the wheels turning in your head, and you’re right. You’ll find it in the drag queen section of Target because it’s for stifling the appearance of unwanted guests while wearing a one-piece at the beach.

I personally think that’s pretty cool. Somebody took a very specialized cross-section of humanity and decided to do something nice just for them. Republicans, however, consider that special rights. They don’t get swimsuits that make their nether regions more prominent, so why should the drag queens get anything?

By the way, Republicans: My friend’s uncle Billy once taught him a trick to do the thing you’d rather have in your swimsuit, and all you have to do is just stick a potato in there. Make sure it’s in the front though; I found that out the hard way.

Anyway, without further ado, here’s grossly incompetent and virulently anti-gay Senator Ted Cruz looking like he’s on his way to a high school dance with right-wing sleazebag and virulently anti-gay podcaster Benny Johnson, speculating on whether or not Eric Swalwell is packing enough downstairs to merit a tuck-friendly swimsuit:

“Do you think that Eric Swalwell wears a tuck friendly swimsuit?”@TedCruz: “He may be wearing one right now.. to be fair in order to have a tuck friendly swimsuit, you have to have something to tuck” 🤣
