It holds up flawlessly. Still as good as the day it released. The hand-drawn style will never age.

A student asked me at the end of class today "do you teach a class that's nothing but AI rants?" Sadly, I do not (currently)

There is no reasonable position that doesn't involve abolishing ICE. If you believe that it still has a role to play in a functioning society, however small or reformed, I have to assume a moral failing on your part.
it's incredible how if you put this entire dialog into the Left Behind series, it would basically work, but instead it's just IRL MN

American news media is on the side of the US government in its war against the populace, but I still dream of just one reporter showing him the real video and asking him to respond to it. It's a dream because the journalists are not on our side, but still...
