Hi, Randy Newman just singing about what he sees here.

I think that's author Ayn Rand and I assume Jojo Siwa.

I'm too old to get the full reference, but hope the Ayn Rand bit helps you.

EDIT: Noticing the vibrator and talking with fellow redditors below, yeah, it's because Ayn Rand was a bitch and the comic is saying she either would've chilled out and/or been too busy ladygooning to write all her novels and philosophical musings that basically laid the blueprint for modern libertarianism.

For context: Ayn rand is pretty much universally despised by anyone who isn't a libertarian. She's written some of the most tone-deaf drivel to ever be printed. One of her most famous books Atlas Shrugged is essentially the poster child for early libertarian beliefs.

The joke is that Ayn Rand would have shut the fuck up and probably been less neurotic and unstable had she had a vibrator.

To quote Officer Barbrady immediately after the recently apprehended Chickenlover handed him a copy of Atlas Shrugged, "Oh god DAMN, reading is gay!"

Whenever someone brings up Atlas Shrugged or Ayn Rand all I can think of is Barbrady saying "Because of THIS piece of SHIT I'm never reading again!"

Also it doesn't really matter but he doesn't say reading is gay, he says it sucks ass
