Forgive the earnest post here, but one year ago this week, Global Tetrahedron took over The Onion. We've since brought back the paper and ONN, dramatically increased revenue, and hired more writers and artists.
But most importantly, as other places debased themselves, we refused to bend the knee.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.
You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Uh, excuse me, Apartheid Andy. One of your young software engineers is an avowed racist who advocates for crimes against humanity, another was fired from his previous job for spilling secrets. Maybe you would be better served putting them back to work at the social network you killed.
