Really? You think like the West Virginia state troopers would be able block off every country road between there and Ohio AND Pennsylvania AND Virginia AND Kentucky?

It does strike me as pretty absurd when a new trade paperback now costs $35 new and will be on sale secondhand for MAYBE $1.25 on Amazon Marketplace in a few months.

I’ve decided just to stop at Depression. Or rather, I’m too depressed to move on from Depression.

I certainly want to kill large parts of the economy, I’ll admit to that much. The cruise industry, the oil industry, the gun industry (k, that one seems not to have worked out the way I hoped it would), the industrial-medical complex (am I the only one who noticed that we essentially enacted free healthcare for all…

I mean to his huge, huge credit—and believe me, it does not come easy to me to say this—Trump ordered the bombers at the last minute to turn around rather than attack Iran last year.

I thought ‘invisible hand’ was where you ligatured your hand until it got numb then jacked off so it felt like someone else was doing it to you?

Stop writing. Shut this site down. Know what will help with Covid? Nothing. Nothing will help. Or rather: A reliable, broadly available vaccine. Nothing else is worth talking about. Stop pretending your stupid computer shit is any good or your TV listicles or your lame housecleaning routines are helping.

Great. Now filter out the museums, orchestras and universities with $50,000 a year tuition. What’s left?
