If you agree murder is bad, but you don't view insurance corporations denying critical medicine to people knowing full well they will die as a result, as a form of murder, then you don't in fact believe murder is bad. You believe rich people should be able to kill poor people so be honest w/yourself

This incredible essay/comic by Kristen Radtke takes the history of the baby monitor and turns it into something else. (Also visually, a very tight piece of web engineering!)

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

Hey BlueSky it's me, Sonic the Hedgehog!

In the wealthiest country on earth, it's unconscionable that an unexpected medical bill can put someone into a lifetime of debt.

So many of our problems are rooted in corporations profiting off of what should be public services - and that's not cool!
