Oh my god, this is dark.

“but that’s even more giraffes than the first one!” has me dying, haha.

Also can’t forget gaming companies that have turned many modern games into Skinner-boxes.

Far Side is timeless

Omg, thanks! I noticed that it had hit a million recently, and I was thinking about writing up a post to commemorate it and maybe share some thoughts about my experience posting like a madman on the fediverse for 6-7 months so far. If I do, it’ll probably be on the c/fediverse community, unless anyone can think of a more fitting one.

I’m also surprised it’s still visible! My instance upgraded to 0.19 recently, which supposedly takes away the upvote count from your profile view. I was secretly hoping to make it to one million before the upgrade happened… Lol

(Edit: also glad to hear you got into TNG!)

You pass the perception check and spot the mimic.

Just tried to search it, and I can’t find one - I was all ready to crosspost!

God, can you imagine if we had to go to some sort of DMV-like building to wait in person for Comcast customer support?

People would starve.

Wow, when they were practically giving those away, I figured they were washing their hands of it. It’s amazing that it’s still being supported.

This is mind blowing

Turns out the city doesn’t have flamboyantly dressed supervillains at all. Batman is just running around Gotham, sleep deprived as hell, grabbing confused commuters by the shoulders and accusing them of being The Penguin.

Duct tape?! That"s a wild home remedy.

It was a near immediate campaign to convince people not to believe their lying eyes and ears. I think deep down, the spin doctors know that they’re lying though.

It made the world weird - especially politics. I still attribute the extreme polarization that we see today to the aftermath of 9/11.

Don’t get me wrong, I know people had strong opinions before 2001, but it didn’t seem like political party was as significant a part of the average person’s identity like it is now.

Did you try communicating in clicks?
