I love this article illustration. Well done.

Makes my eyes sting. You feel very “there” in all the uncomfortable sensory ways. Barefoot, wet and clingy, wading in watery plastic, smelling that acrid smoke, and seeing it’s a child smoking it feels all the more real. Disturbing. A fantastic photo. Really disturbing.

Well sheeeeeee-it, if we’re sharing photography! :) :) :)

There’s the part where they’re chilling on the helicarrier, and the part when they’re chilling at the shawarma shop, and the part where...

The “old enough, therefore not reprehensible!” thing that older creeps do, yuck. It’s like hooligans smacking rocks through house windows via strategic ricochet from behind “safe” property lines or something. Doesn’t change the behavior, just how much you can legally define fault, which is the whole point. And they…

I know you’re being half snarky, but 7-11 is wholly owned by 7 & I Holdings, a Japanese corporation. Happened officially about a decade ago, but was majority-owned by Japan throughout the 90s. So while it originated in the U.S., technically, if you’re under the age of 25, every single time you’ve entered a 7-11…

That would be awesome!

Short answer: S/he should give it a try.

That’s what pretty much everyone is thinking, I think. I’m here and I would totally go for it, except there’s that slightly worrisome “what if” where nobody buys it, and you’re out of a fortune. Seems almost guaranteed you’d be able to sell it off pretty quick to any of the hundreds of disappointed hopefuls right…

My mind just rolodexed through a bunch of airport words that could be euphemisms. Maybe he did the same and wisely grabbed at “bench” before spinning off into the really lame stuff.

“Honey pot” is such a squicky laugh-like-a-tween euphemism! But it brings to mind the greatest (and oldest) sext of all time, which I have proudly and openly plagiarized and encourage you to do in future, to reciprocate and make fun of “honey talkers”:

It’s punctuation for millennials haha Plus it creates ambiguity and softens assertions that can be denied or walked back lmao I murder fucked a dog everyone is a cunt lol

Why is six afraid of savage?

This is like a really great euphemism for disappointing sex.

Honestly that word. In the split second before I got on with the sentence my mind went to “the hipster name for glasses with actual diopter magnification”, as opposed to the plastic ones with no lenses. New braincept: lensless glasses with the lenses in! Functional and double reverse ironic! We could pay Ja Rule to…

Nailed it.

Seconded, I love learning about pixel artists, and also, that person you linked is FANTASTIC.

That is the word. Baffling. It’s an institutional/attitude problem, is all I can make of it.

Holy god damn jesus fucking... suppressing advancement is the same as a demotion and a paycut, with CYA slights of hand, a whole aura of deniability, which is really unforgivably fucking sinister. DAMN IT. Infuriating. It’s like instead of cutting your feet off they raise the world around you while keeping you…
