My "vacation" is a euphemism for war tourism in Ukraine for some "bloody work" to escape my boring techie job and family.

Ask me about my warcrimes.

Each hat included a note mentioning SA, C-SPAM and saying that if they mentioned the hat or put an image on social media a lot of politics nerds would flip their poo poo.

I would bet we get to see Feinberg and Wolf wear the hat, and if we're really lucky John Oliver.

Went for a walk this fine morning w/ my hat and got a very disapproving look from an old white lady walking her dog. Also got a laugh out of some young-ish dudes jogging so it seems the hat is working as intended :)

I didn’t send one to Colbert but I know one poster is trying to personally hand hats to media figures in New York. I’m a little skeptical about Oliver, Wolf or Minhaj; I had to send the hats to agents/managers and I think that probably lowers the chance that they get them. Feinberg and Maloy went to their employers, much like Hayes’ hat went directly to his show.

that makes sense. and we know Hayes secretly loves his hat, so I think your analysis is probably accurate. though to be honest any PR person who doesn’t pass on this hat deserves to be fired

I think they mostly screen for crazies/stalkers and dangerous objects.

I would imagine the hat would get to Oliver, even if he doesn't wear it on the show. His rep has to know he would laugh at it, if nothing else.

kind of a weird question, Pancakes, but with an order this size, did you take all the (domestic/non-celeb) packages to the post office at once? I'm just curious about what the process for shipping this many items all at once is.

Two rounds with the hats in a suitcase. The 53 individually-packaged ones first, then the 41 (I think) domestic multiple orders in 15 separate envelopes. The biggest inconvenience was that the Blue Line was significantly delayed on Saturday so I ended up just walking about a mile there and back each time.

Picked up a 6-pack from the liquor store near me earlier. The cashier looked at my hat, got kinda confused, then it clicked and he pointed laughed and said "that's Trump!" while I was signing the receipt.
