It takes all my humanity not to advocate for them being locked up under thise same conditions.

That’s cartoon supervillain shit.

How dare you support NazgΓ»l taking over control of Pasadena Hunane Society?!! I am leaving stern sticky notes in the break room about it.

I’m hoping the decent and insightful man who was consumed by ego will now somehow return to the world.

It’s amazing what can be done when evolution didn’t screw around with your pelvis and spine.

I’m trying to drink less soda, so instead I made a pitcher of 35% water, 20% fruit, and 45% sugar.

When did being a rich, eccentric geek go from β€œEveryone should speak LogLan” to β€œHuman organ meat should be available in stores”?

Did you respond with β€œIt’s me!” To create confusion and alarm?

I’ve been a fan of Phil Foglio since his Dragon Magazine days. The joy and mania of his characters makes me happy. Girl Genius is fabulous.

I wrote my OG website by hand in vim. Just basic HTML and long vanished. I did pay a college art student $50 to draw me a banner.

I’ll have you know that I will not be buying your new book … in Swedish. I don’t speak Swedish and not being able to read it would make me cry.

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

My Outlook calendar keeps getting updated. Jesus gets a bit loopy with his account. Seems like he’d be good with cloud services.

The best thing about social media is that anybody can share their thoughts. The worst thing about social media is that anybody can share their thoughts.

Sometimes it feels unfair that someone’s worst moment gets spread worldwide and ruins their life. Acting like an ass should not be unrecoverable.
