Sense of Humor

if you don't have a sense of humor it's just not funny / i don't get it

Boundary Crossing

sometimes you have to cross a boundary to know where it is

Parents

i'm turning into my parents / it could be worse / you could be turning into someone else's parents

Originality

OriginalityMimi & Eunice distill an earlier article, The Cult of Originality. (Reposted because the one I posted in October has a weird URL. Also because it’s ironic.)

Privilege

you have pointy-eared privilege / but being pointy-eared you can't be aware of it nor the many ways you oppress the floppy-eared / is there any way to fix this? give me tenure

Limits to Speech

there have to be limits to speech / otherwise it'd be a free-for-all / i feel much safer in a fear-for-all

Someday

someday someone will love me / how about right now / it's not someday yet

Not a Good Idea

you wouldn't know  a good idea if it hit you in the face / pow / maybe that wasn't a good idea

Good Ideas

there aren't enough good ideas / sure there are / i don't see any! you don't have enough attention

Attention is scarce, information is not.

Authoritarian update

Authoritarian

I’m re-posting this cartoon today because the US Department of Homeland Security seized more than 70 web sites over the weekend (while sites like arstechnica.com and techdirt were on vacation, and the mainstream media were devoted to stories about holiday shopping). Democrats: unless you stand up to stop this NOW, I am never voting for you again.
