Here are the jokes of the week! Written by me, Bri Ribalta!
1). Spain’s postal service ends its skin-tone stamps collection, which was part of an
anti-racism campaign meant to show social inequality, where the darker the stamp the
lower its value. The tone deafness is not surprising, but shame on their laziness to only
use four skin tones to offend their people.

2). Russia warns Disney against distributing the film ‘Out’ featuring a gay character as it
would be “harmful” to children. I’m pretty sure that having their parents “fall” out of
windows is more harmful, but ok.

3). Elderly, ‘unathletic’ alligator with ‘terrible arthritis’ escaped the Wisconsin zoo this week.
After 2 days of adventures and wild living he was found in another swamp at the zoo. I
hope they gave him extra happy-pills for pulling off that escape.

4). North Korea has banned skinny jeans, mullets, piercings, dyed hair and other Western
influences in a fight against capitalism. In other words, Kim Jung-un has banned looks
he won’t be able to pull off.

5). Businesses and public buildings in Tennessee will now be required to post signs
announcing they serve transgender customers. So Tennessee lawmakers thought
transgender customers didn’t eat or used public buildings until now? Bless their little
hearts.

6). A scientific study in Vietnam has concluded that winning the lottery brings more friends.
Researchers also studied how having the wrong friends when you have money can lead
to a mysterious death, but the results were inconclusive.

7). Amazon has introduced AmaZen, a small enclosed booth installed in an Amazon
warehouse where employees can go to “focus on their mental wellbeing”. No need to
take a sick day when you can have your mental breakdown guided by Alexa in a sound
proof booth shaped like a porta potty.

8). A Texas woman climbed into El Paso zoo’s spider monkey exhibit to hand feed animals
hot cheetos. There’s no doubt that hot cheetos are a delicacy in this woman’s social
circle.

9). A northern California cafe owner is charging customers a $5 fee for wearing masks, and
50% off to customers who throw their masks in the trash. So, take that liberals and the
cafe’s employees who thought the restaurant was in the business of staying in business.
