They say every good thing comes to an end, so it’s with a poignant bittersweetness that I have decided to announce my retirement from social media. But you can still keep in touch with me at my substack!

I want to thank all the fans for being so loyal, engaged and hilarious over all these years. It’s truly been an honor of a lifetime to gain and keep such an amazing following. See you over at the stack.

β€” Uncle George
