I never know what to post on this site; so have "Gin & Coconut Water" as covered by a pre-selling-out Baha Men.

how do people make those bars that look like old-school forum signatures that are like 50 or 75px tall and are super wide with a cropped background image, possibly a scanline filter and blocky letters on the right that say something like "SHIT POSTER" or something.

is there a generator for that or am i going to have to open up pixlr and do it myself?

(side note: if you know what i'm talking about, what is the name of that font?)

observing/participating in a market economy in which protective regulations and institutions don't exist/are not enforced (see: cryptocurrency, some countries, historic examples) is actually an excellent way to learn really quickly why capitalism requires such regulations to not just "serve the people", but actually function at all in the first place.

no matter how hard capitalist "libertarians" and "an"caps stick their fingers in their ears and try to drown out the real world, it's painfully obvious to anyone paying attention that a capitalist economy could not possibly exist without a regulatory state.
