Yes, it is a price increase, but the inflation has been wild. For context, the Switch in 2017 for $299 is equivalent to $389 in 2025 dollars. It's really been insane. The Nintendo 64 from 1996 was $199, or $404 in 2025 dollars.

If the stakes were lower, it wouldn't be an issue. It's not fun to get close to someone, then suddenly realize they don't think the rest of your friends should get to live.

Yeah, we've got to get rid of all of this Bronze-age crap they're teaching our kids.

My pollinating, proboscis-prone friends are offended.

When the IRS is under-funded, they're less able to go after the wealthy and are left the poor who won't be able to fight it.

It's the subtler version of hostile architecture. You know how they designed benches to be impossible for homeless people to sleep on? They do not want a customer to stay at the building after they have made a purchase. It is more efficient if the children do not come inside and a new customer can take their place. The building is not made for humans, it is made for money.

I wish I had known when I was young that you can stealthily flex muscles like hamstrings and glutes to end an unwanted erection. It draws blood to those muscle groups and away from the erection.

My local library has Nintendo Switch games to rent for two weeks at a time. Just got to play Link's Awakening and Kirby and the Forgotten Land all the way through for free. I think I'm going to go ahead and buy Triangle Strategy based off of my play experience.

This is the most heart-warming comic about infanticide.
