In this hilarious collection of witty observations from a world on the brink of collapse, Eli Grober takes readers on a comical journey into a house of horrors. With over 75 new pieces and many of Grober's most viral New Yorker and McSweeney's humor essays, This Won't Help exposes the precarious landscape of hypocritical, illogical, and dangerous leaders and ideals. Grober's sharp wit finds absurdity and toxic rhetoric everywhere he turns, painting a vivid picture of how damaging certain mindsets and individuals can be, as well as the dire consequences of allowing them to persist. Satirizing a wide range of issues, from politics to economics, technology to climate change denial, Grober's biting, Swiftian wit leaves no one unscathed. From the megalomaniacal billionaire abandoning our deteriorating Earth for a better life on an unlivable Mars to the clueless president begging the people to vote for change, This Won't Help offers a reflection on our crazy world, a chance to laugh at its flaws, and a call to action for seeking truth, eschewing absurdity, and advocating for change.
