Granted, that describes a lot of people, but this one ALSO famously hoarded the only copy of Wu Tang's "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin"

For context, this is the Onceler-like figure which gleefully jacked up the prices on several life-saving medications and wound up in jail for screwing over his investors.

If I were Linda, I would be scrubbing myself in the shower to this day, because I would feel so very unclean.

'A biotech entrepreneur gave his New York City public high school a gift of $1 million. “You kind of look back and say, ‘Who do I have to thank for my success?’” said Martin Shkreli, 31. “For me it was definitely my high school,” said Shkreli. “I really cleaned up in the business world. I have to give thanks,” said Shkreli, who gave a special shout out to his math teacher, Linda Aboody. “Ms. Aboody was just a wonderful teacher — her logic class was unbelievably helpful,” he said.'

This is certainly the worst endorsement for a school that I have ever seen:

And this is the Sonic comics commentary I was talking about this morning.

This is the Medium article I was reading on it, because after a certain point, I clocked out: https://medium.com/@ponett/i-read-every-sonic-comic-by-ken-penders-and-theyre-wilder-than-you-could-ever-imagine-1f9dd05ae433

It started off as this clumsy, pun-filled SaTAM, Adventures of Sonic hybrid, and then it got all serious and soap opera-y and filled with the writer's own OCs. It was like some older guy who didn't like Sonic was making Sonic fanfic and still marketing it for kids.

Sometimes I wonder why the Sonic fandom is Like That, but then I remember how fucking bizarre the Archie comic series was

Is it really that hard to avoid Youtube for 3 days, tho?

We have so much real shit to be upset about, and people spread absolute garbage like, "Your girl-children are going to be kidnapped by perverts!" if any of these dinguses really cared about human trafficking, they'd be fighting for immigrants working under abject conditions in sweat shops and on farms.

I need to stay the fuck off Twitter because now I'm seeing shit about imaginary sex traffickers kidnapping children off the street in white vans, like we're reliving all the moral panics of the 80s again.

Going for that male Octoling haircut

Buying the first foldable laptop. From 1982. The Grid Compass. Very innovative clamshell design.

I've spent an hour reading commentary on the oldest Archie Sonic comics. The ones before the echidna-obsessed weirdo joined the staff. The ones with puns.
