For those using Imagus, make sure to click the link still. The entire comic doesn’t get blown up from the thumbnail.

That feel when Latinos are so good at stealing your jobs that they even head up the Proud Boys lol.

Weird call, brodude. Really fucking weird call.

That’s what you’re going to do, just ignore the rest of it as if it isn’t inevitably going to happen and already does lol?


FWIW I will never get the hypocrisy over race-based groups being fine for anyone but white people in the west lol. Yes, in reality the white group is always a quasi-neo nazi group once you pull a couple layers away in the west… but…

I’m just waiting for the pendulum to swing the other way on it. You’ll get real-deal white people only groups just to poke a hole in the hypocrisy of the other groups ala The Satanic Temple. It’ll just be a bunch of white people talking about their personal heritage of trailer park trash customs, video games, football legends, and maybe literal Folk European History lol. Then again I suppose that was kinda why the Supreme Court struck down Affirmative Action. Can’t discriminate based on X.


This is a reminder to think about direct propaganda from Russia to establish voter apathy in people who would vote Democrat when you read all these self defeatist posts.


I don’t know about you guys, but if a great friend and coworker I knew to be an upstanding person got accused of raping people I didn’t know, I’d be with my friend all the way.

When it comes out they actually did the thing? You condemn what they did.

This isn’t some weird ‘gotcha’. This is people who like to scrutinize people who watch the Kardashians essentially doing the same thing on the internet lol.

Having your trust and integrity betrayed is one of the most human and humbling moments possible. One which anybody who’s had more than two friends or a family in their life has ALREADY gone through.

What a pile of low life tabloid shitmongery.

Don’t be a fucking hypocrite. Do you want people to change their opinions with new information or not?


Considering Nazi Gold, Fascist Genocide Money Switzerland is #1, I’d put Canada at #1 myself. I get the reasons for the rankings though.

Also USA is #5, so we good lol. Sweden and Australia is 3 and 4.

I’m pretty sure I got stuck on some Samson quest in that game for like two years before I found some guide telling me what to do?

Kinda reminds me of Wild Arms 2 and a puzzle toward the end about days of the week but it was some bad Japanese translation or some shit?

Stuff like that is just killer.

Having to go through all 9999? Combinations for Star Tropics because you were too poor to buy the game with a booklet for original DRM is up there.


Yeah perpetual royalties are a nonsense slippery slope. People are pushing for it in all the wrong ways wanting a piece of the pie from the higher ups when in reality the way the money flows just needs to be altered.

Bridge and road crews don’t get to get a penny every time someone drives over stuff.

Creation does not mean benefit in perpetuity. It means you created something. You should be paid properly for it, yes, but it doesn’t mean every time someone mentions your book you get a penny from them lol.

Melancholy Elephants was a great Hugo Award short story about this very thing written in 1983. It’s a great read for those who want to go in a bit blind. http://spiderrobinson.com/melancholyelephants.html

How the hell do you spoiler tag on Kbin? lol


Great. Their CEO can make $2,000,000 / year and the rest $100,000 capping their maximum pay at 20x their lowest paid employee.

Either everyone needs to get royalties or nobody does.

Pay your voice actors right the first time instead of paying them shit per line. Or if your video game becomes an astounding success, all 1,000 people get a slice of that 100,000,000 million it made in sales via residuals. A cool $100,000 for everyone!

Don’t forget to advocate for yourself even if you have a union. Nobody ever gets paid more by saying nothing.


There’s many reasons for this, but one is pretty simple: people lie.

You’d be surprised about how accurate scientific surveys are. The worst surveys are only 10% points off from real world data lol.

Unless you’re gaming the survey like magazines do, real world studies aren’t off by much.

You say that in jest but I know far more previous functional alcoholics who drink occasionally vs went teetotaler.


… this is me with excel files for random bookkeeping shit lol. Everyone’s are so ugly… but I’m making these look nice for all of like… 3 different people that use them lol. So at least when I have to do these random tasks twice a year… they look nice! Even if the old stuff worked or doing it by hand with a legal pad was sufficient… I gotta have that Excel column auto sum damn it!

ADHD is a bitch sometimes.
