This reminds me of screw caps on wine bottles. They were never trashy - they were better than corks the whole time

The internet in its original concept was great. Unfortunately it wasn’t shaped around profit, so it was quickly remodelled. (nat) #SMBCcomics #Tamagotchi #Grunge #Internet

Imperialist social democracy is good for some, bad for many. Many in the global north are blind to the fact that our good life comes at the expense of the global south.

Jos nautit tästä ratkaisusta ilmastonmuutokseen, niin aiemmat BAhFestit löytyvät youtubesta. Sieltä selviää mm. että eläinten unimäärä korreloi niiden itseinhoon. Ja Oreo keksien täytteen määrän kasvaessa eksponentiaalisesti yksi Oreo ratkaisee muutaman kymmenen vuoden kuluttua maailman nälänhädän ja hetkeä myöhemmin täyttää koko universumin.

As the cost of living rises, the latest SMBC makes me sad that enjoying a juicy (vegan) burger is so much more expensive than a beef burger. They *should* be cheaper in theory, and the cheapskates like me would probably chow down on cheap Vegan burgers perfectly happily.

Are pensioners really a valid model for a #UBI society as #smbccomics suggests?
Or are there other factors, like work/university/HS/MS culture or a need to prove oneself to the world, that would keep science and engineering spinning?
Are pensioners actually significantly less able to work, or are they just fed up with working for others?
How many pensioners work for the public good vs how many exclusively tend to family when not consuming entertainment?
Discuss?! 😅

Today's #smbccomics is #MattLevine's "Theory 2" of banking made manifest!

"In Theory 2, bank deposits are actually long-term, because the banks have enduring relationships with their customers and their customers are unlikely to leave," [because of the moat of fire]
Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow.
That hurts me right in my existence. 😂
I'm pretty sure @ZachWeinersmith wrote this one about me specifically 😂
