Lore Sjoberg "Bannon's conviction, with the prospect of jail time, is an apt time for us as a society to contemplate how cruelly punitive our criminal justice system can be. We should consider alternatives and reform. I'm talking about for whoever winds up as his cellmate, of course." --Matt Blaze "Remember folks, healthcare is only for people it's funded for. Healthcare programs only exist if funded. No one cares if you're sick or dying unless you have money." --Asher Wolf "If we lost queer folx, furries, and queer furries, the Internet and much of world infrastructure and finance would crash and burn." --The Creatively Maladjusted "Honestly, there are a number of reasons why I'd rather move to the EU than Canada, but one of them is that I think it's good actually when Jews emigrate or return to countries that kicked us out. In my heart I relish the prospect of busting into Eastern Europe like the kool-aid man." --Amberite "I was always skeptical of animal camouflage until yesterday I tried to sit on a rock and it turned out to be a deer." --Adriana Porter Felt "I remember thinking that the board game Pandemic was unrealistic because it involved multiple simultaneous international disease outbreaks.

They don't come in cups. They come in onions." --David East "''I'm mad that the President isn't incapacitated'' is an incredibly stupid take, and some of you need to hit pause on your never-ending random walk for outrage." --Matt Hodges "Driving home, I saw a store with a sign which said 'BEEF TUBS IN STOCK'. I do not understand, and this will haunt me." --Hasufin "This may be a heretical opinion in our capitalist dystopia but I don't think influential people should ostentatiously work when ill, thus risking further harm to their immediate and long-term health, purely in order to show how tough and serious they are." --Katie Mack "Any, my artist's statement advice is that if it reads like you trained a predictive text model on a combination of Baudrillard and the Timecube website, you're on the right track." --@mycoliza "I did not think in the year 2022, America would be dealing with both child labor and polio." --Molly Jong-Fast "Best feature of aging is the bottomless black void where my concern for HN discourse used to be." --Dan McKinley "Web3 rules so much because they're like 'Let me show u a world beyond the limits of what you think is physically and spiritually possible' and then describe arbitrage for McDonald's loyalty points." --Boosterman "Anything you sweat and bleed as an engineer or designer to create, with the ostensible intention of making life better, will get abused by people who have zero ethics and want money and control.
