The hypocrisy is just the worst part.

I get the humor of the comic, but I generally think it's a bad idea to compare two people in order to make a judgement, or even two groups of people. If you actually look at the groups, you'll almost always find that each community has its strengths and weaknesses. They can actually learn from each other.

I was watching a video of a lady who escaped from North Korea. There was a real food shortage, and people were barely surviving. But she also said that she missed the feeling of community that she felt in her home town. That there was a certain kind of happiness that she felt living in a poor community struggling to get by that she couldn't replicate.

That was necessary because for that toilet if you were misaligned, things could go very wrong. I don't know if the newer toilets require the same training.

Astronauts have one of the weirdest jobs. How many prestigious jobs require you to watch a video of your own asshole?

Somebody should make a FOIA request for them.

This would be a controversial comic if it were released today, due to all of the controversy around the idea of vicious breeds.

Edit: Well, I tried to word my comment so that it would be about the comic and wouldn't elicit this sort of discussion, but I guess I failed.

If he was found guilty of participating in an insurrection, then Trump would be constitutionally prohibited from holding any federal office.

This idea in particular seems inconvenient to me, but there may be people who would prefer something like this.

I had a very small apartment when I lived in Japan, and honestly, I really liked it for the most part. It was a bit bigger than what I think they're saying in this article, though.

Honestly, it is such an obvious lie, too. Can companies really just lie in their filings to the FTC?

If she really believes those breasts, ovaries, and wombs are so important, why was she telling women to think about things? You don't think with breasts, ovaries, or wombs.

And what will she do when she hits menopause? How will that affect her beliefs?

The article was published January 23, 2013, so that was almost 12 years ago.
