I think there’s a non-zero chance that was discussed and decided against because- get this!- cops are fucking shitbags, as proven by literally hundreds of videos over the last week.

I totally offered to make this for my kids this morning and instead they requested I poured milk into a bowl of Fruit Loops.

Except as noted, a majority of the stock is owned by executives and therefore they receive a majority of the dividends. So that's still executive compensation. 

LOL “capitalism”

Another thing that is still happening is cis-straight white dudes telling other people whether or not they’re being oppressed.

This shit isn’t new. There’s also lots of examples of people bitching in the ‘60s. But the argument that SJWs- or whatever sexist/racist term is popular at the time- are ruining characters that have always been steeped in politics (at least in the Marvel U) is fucking ridiculous.

Killing college kids is fine!

Goddamn you. On a Bear Friday, too...

“The Academy—as a big, slow bureaucratic organization”

So the robot doesn’t have an alibi either. Interesting...

I initially read this as “common human illiteracy” and frankly, given our current condition, I get it.
