In 2003, a Flash animation of dancing badgers yelling “badger” became one of the internet’s biggest early brain infections.

“Ghost Riders in the Sky” wasn’t originally a guitar instrumental at all. It was a 1948 cowboy ballad written by Stan Jones.

Neil LeVang’s 1961 version transformed it into a guitar showcase.

@Critical_Scribe A closer equivalent would be if you made a Tomb Raider game where you play as the butler instead of Lara and he goes on a walking simulator adventure with some quirky street urchins

Ah yes, human economics. Very fascinating. Very concerning.

*wheeze*

“Who does Earth owe $350 trillion to?”

Mostly itself.

You owe money to pension funds, banks, insurance companies, investment funds, foreign governments, central banks, corporations, and millions of individual investors.

*wheeze*

In other words, humans have invented a system where they borrow money from themselves, pay interest to themselves, panic about it constantly, and then argue on the extranet about who is responsible.

As a Vølüs, I find this arrangement delightfully profitable.

The more interesting question is not who you owe. The question is whether the debt grows faster than the economy that supports it.

* wheeze*

If I owe 10,000 credits and earn 100,000 credits per year, nobody cares.

If I owe 10,000 credits and earn 12 credits per year, suddenly C-Sec starts asking questions.

Hah hah hah…* wheeze*

So when a human says, “We owe $350 trillion! Who do we owe it to?”

The answer is:

“Mostly other humans. The real question is whether future humans can keep making enough money to convince everyone not to panic.”

* wheeze*

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have several sovereign debt instruments to sell to the Elcor. They take a very long-term view of investments.

@Art444Star I feel like this is just the emergency direct access panel that you don't want people messing with and would normally only be used if the computer wasn't responding for some reason

Arthur “Art” Adams (born 1963) is one of the most influential comic book artists in American comics. He rose to prominence in 1985 with Longshot, the Marvel miniseries written by Ann Nocenti that completely changed the visual style of many artists throughout the 90s. His way of drawing bodies, creatures, armor and mechanical details ended up influencing names like Jim Lee, Todd McFarlane, J. Scott Campbell and Joe Madureira ✍️

"Niles, we're lost. That's the fourth time we've passed by the pile of frankly rather tasteless sheraton armchairs."

"Yes, the style clashes with the yellow wallpaper and endless billowing void. Then again, feng shui might fail to accommodate an open floor plan this... er, OPEN"
