Which dead or dying dot-com dream am I?

I have no idea what this answer means, or how this one was chosen for me … but it was fun anyway.

Ah, thats when Slate decided to institute a subscription model at the height of their popularity, and then after awhile they discontinued the idea when the response was less-than-overwhelming. Same thing Salon is trying to do now with premium content.

No, I know the concept. I just don’t know why it’s “me”. But it’s fun nonetheless. I guess.

Maybe it’s a warning not to put an Amazon tip jar on my page.

I have to say, my first question was "How the hell do I *avoid* getting a Trump Passport?"

Here's the apparent answer.

GOP: Parents, there are scary people out there who might do #gunviolence to your #kids. So buy them a bullet-proof backpack and tell them to cooperate with active shooter drills.

Also GOP: Nation, there are scary people out there who might do gun violence to our #DearLeader. So build him a yuge bulletproof bunker / #ballroom covered in gold with lots of security so that he can dance the night away safe from mingling with the dangerous hoi-polloi.

"Image of Trump to be featured inside new passports to mark America’s 250th"

There is no limit to the narcissistic ego of #DonaldTrump. We will be decades in erasing the self-serving graffiti of this creep.

"FBI's #KashPatel to sue The Atlantic for #defamation over report on heavy #drinking"

That embarrassing moment when you don't want to seem like a snowflake, but the performative bullying culture you operate in insists you bluster and sue, even as your lawyers try to tell you about defamation law (and the Streisand effect) and all you want to do is go out and do shots with your buddy Pete.
