Notice also how the text even admits that it would be millions sharing the losses of thousands. It's not like the nation would die if each 1000 families helped 1 family to rebuild their home.

It's pure evil selfishness, and what makes it worse is that people like Asay pretend to be Christians. They want to ban birth control and abortion, which the religion takes no clear stance on, but will not give everything to help the poor, which Christianity is all about.

Jesus christ the feet. Also they actually produce the product being sold, so as insufferable as some super celebrities can be at least they are actually making something instead of leeching off an executive spot.

Weird that Ratman isn't acting like 2021 was worse than 2020.

Ratman is the sort of person who thinks that all CEOs built themselves up from nothing out of an abandoned shack and therefore deserve all the money they "earned."

Meanwhile, performers and the like just stand around and sing a few songs, bing bong so easy, why do they get so much money?

Everything must come to an end. Here is a list of cartoonists that are no longer producing cartoons and the reason why.

Whatever happened to the I Drew This artist?

Also, I'm reasonably sure Kreider retired during the Obama years - dunking on Bush he was at his most productive.

I think Kreider quit because he was making $25 a cartoon and couldn’t justify the time he invested. I heard him maybe 8 years ago on an episode of Radiolab talking about a friend of his who had serious problems.

That and he hated how mad he felt making them. Be nice if he still did non-political cartoons, though. Had a whole book of them but god knows what happened to it.

Not sure I agree with the bolded part, I mean a record or a movie or even a book is a collaborative process where the production company, publisher, distributors etc. have a huge role and there are lots of people involved besides the celebrity. Their earning model also tends to be more complex than a non-lawyer would understand. With the exception to those celebrities who also are CEO's of their own production companies.

But gently caress them all, does the rat think that "Country Girl" thinks that Kim Kardashian should be excluded from taxation and everything?

AND WHY ARE NONE OF YOUR EXAMPLES COUNTRY ARTISTS WHEN THE QUESTION COMES FROM "COUNTRY GIRL" FROM INDIANA, RAT???

I know in the past it's been at the end of the prior year, but I needed a bit of time to pull it together. It will happen much faster than the 2021 Kellies, as I have the materials and outlines in place.

I do need to ask for volunteers to help with the wiki sours transfer process; I never figured it out and the 2021 entries still need moving.

I heard him promoting his new essay book on NPR probably 3-4 years ago. Seems he is now, or at least was then, teaching college classes and writing essays. He seemed happy as he was talking about how he used to have an unconscious death wish, but was using the past tense. Shame if he isn't drawing anymore, even if making political cartoons themselves were killing his soul.

The demons are in the prison for Political Prisoners so it is to be inferred that they all rebelled against the New World Order and their crimes are all cool crimes like calling for trans genocide on social media or assaulting first responders.

E: we even see Chud Martha Kent wake up in a regular-rear end hospital bed with her husband visiting unsupervised, so it’s not like the people attending to her were secret nazis or anything.
