In 1985, the top five percent of the households, wealthiest five percent, had net worth of $8 trillion, which is a lot. Today, after serial bubble after serial bubble, the top five percent have net worth of $40 trillion…The top five percent have gained more wealth than the whole human race had created prior to 1980.

Very revealing: When the second episode of L.A. Complex aired in Canada, they censored the word “faggot” from the show and aired Tariq and Kal’s love scene in full. When the same episode aired in the United States last night, the word “faggot” was NOT censored and they edited down the love scene between Tariq and Kal to a few quick seconds. #InstitutionalHomophobia

comedycentral: On last night’s Colbert Report, Stephen showed off the cover of his Maurice Sendak-blurbed children’s book, I Am a Pole (And So Can You!), which will hit bookshelves on May 8. He also announced that the audiobook will be read by Tom Hanks and sat down with Dame Julie Andrews to discuss her 26 children’s books and princess underpants. But did you know Stephen has another book coming out this year? It’s true! America Again: Re-becoming the Greatness We Never Weren’t will be released October 2 and is available for pre-order now! Your dream of an entire bookcase filled with the writings of Stephen Colbert is one step closer to a reality.
