Green did do an eventual follow-up comic which should kind of clear up the meaning of the original.

I’ve never thought of the “this is fine” meme as emblamatic of people “facing crushing realities they could not control.”

You’re missing out if you’re only using Gmail on the web.

Of course he is. And we are free to call his opinion shit and to call your breathless defense of someone who wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire a sad display by a pathetic simp.

and people laughed at me for outputting my sound from built-in monitor speakers but guess who is laughing from his perfectly shaped skull now.

I don’t know why you didn’t make this clear- Zelenskyy is Jewish. What Tucker was doing was using antisemitic tropes- that Jews are ratlike, that Jews persecute Christians, that Jews are in league with bankers to control things.

If you look at their actual terms of service page, nothing has changed. They’re still keeping the policy, they’re just trying to let the flames die down first before bringing it back.

I’m sure Faux News will cover this “new information” with the fervor of covering Hunter Biden’s 78th lost laptop. Being pro-authoritarian seems to be their thing.

Well, at least we’re acknowledging the highly speculative nature of the “information”.

You’re working too hard to be disappointed in this. 

It’s not going to imagine fake hotels and rooms, right?

“It’s the kind of thing beloved by the most insufferable nerds on earth and no one else.”

It’s a price for early adopters, but there enough of those (along with enough good will for Apple products) that I suspect this will be successful. There’s no doubt they could build a similar product at a more affordable price point in the future; just look at the iPhone.
