My goal is to not end up in a gulag

Does getting health care mean leaving your basement?

If so, young men aren’t doing it.

Hell, I leave my basement frequently and don’t want to get health care because I’m sure it will bankrupt me.

If someone callled me an ambulance I’d fight them because I don’t have ambulance money.

I’m sorry but I don’t recognize your vote and will do what I want.

The great soviet has determined the appropriate corn and you were outvoted, so you don’t get to pick the corn because The Party has determined which corn produces the most bushels per acre for the glory of the socialist republic.

(I’m an anarchist.)

Sorry, comrade. The state says that you must grow this corn. If you grow different corn you will be sent to prison. Even if this corn will not grow.

Glory to the revolution!

There is an uncut shot of a cat falling 20-30 feet into an ocean.

Even met some friends on the way and had to explain I was crying because it was so beautiful.

Yeah, that one wasn’t nearly as good

Maybe, in the far future, I elected to have my skull sent back in time for that purpose.

Because I totally would.

Yeah but fewer people get the references

Connections with James Burke

Secret Life of Machines

All of David MacAulay’s books

I bent over the sink to clean the drain and threw my back out three hours before I had to leave on a business trip.

Had to cancel the entire thing and spend the next day on my back.

The WFH gave it away. I have a similar setup and it makes me look real professional even if I’m naked from the waist down.

That ring light is going to make your cat look amazing on Zoom

Pretty sure we invented capitalism

To be fair, giving a cow antibiotics when a vet says she needs it is humane.

Keeping them on antibiotics because you’re too cheap to have a vet check all your cows is cruel and breeds super-germs.
