in the expansive world of strange vehicles, there is a model from the 80s that surprises: the ‘boaterhome’ which -as the name suggests- is a half boat, half camper van hybrid. the strange invention takes shape as a land vehicle whose rear can be detached to sail across lakes and calm waters, allowing users to travel in all seasons.
And maybe the boat can stay stuck for just a minute, so I can keep on cherishing a situation that makes sense.
It feels profoundly goofy to even discuss the big stuck boat. You can say those three words in any order and it will describe the situation:
Big stuck boat!
Boat BIG STUCK.
Big boat? Stuck.
Stuck boat BIG. here

Another thing I like is that we know exactly what the problem is that is making the boat be stuck. It's a big boat, and it's stuck. Sure, shipping and manufacturing and boats and canals have lots of connections to varied and sundry historical and sociological issues – but this immediate problem, in front of us, is a stuck boat, and we can look at that problem for precisely what it is. It's not stuck for mysterious reasons related to a long history of humans cruelly exploiting other humans. It's not stuck because a politician wanted money from an organization that profits from human suffering. It's not stuck because someone pretending to be in favor of free speech is trying to promote hateful ideologies. It's stuck because it's big, bigger than the place where it is, and that's why it's stuck. more
But I can't deny it: I like that the boat is stuck.
It's bad that the boat is stuck. It's bad for lots of people and for lots of reasons. I know that. Please don't think that me liking the stuck boat is an ideological stance. This is not an opinion I have about boats, or about canals, or about things generally being stuck.
"Whose Boat Is This Boat?" isn't the first picture story to mock the Trump administration. "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver Presents a Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo" is a best-selling parody of "Marlon Bundo's Day in the Life of a Vice President," a tribute to the family's pet bunny written by Mike Pence's daughter, Charlotte Pence, and illustrated by his wife, Karen Pence. The vice president is known for his conservative social views; in Oliver's book, Marlon Bundo has fallen for a fellow male bunny.
With illustrations by Andro Buneta and John Henry, "Whose Boat Is This Boat?" looks like a bedtime story, albeit one that ends with the message "There is no moral." Defining it has proved challenging: On The New York Times best-seller charts, it appears under "Advice, How-to & Miscellaneous." here
"What I'm hearing, from the voices inside my head, is that he enjoys it," Colbert said, mimicking the president's own fact-checking style. "Everybody is saying he likes it."
Books can take years from conception to publication, but "Whose Boat Is This Boat?" was essentially written in 24 hours and within six weeks was already on shelves, physical and virtual. It began after Trump visited New Bern, North Carolina, and was preoccupied with a yacht that had landed in a resident's backyard. more
Because all of the words are by President Donald Trump, who is billed as the author "by accident." The picture book's title and contents were inspired by Trump's disjointed response last September to Hurricane Florence, which struck North Carolina and South Carolina, where Colbert grew up.
NEW YORK -- For Stephen Colbert and his "Late Show" staff, the best-selling spoof "Whose Boat Is This Boat?" essentially wrote itself.
