Insanely Stupid Quotes:

Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.

- Big Brother

More Quotes from Communist Dictators

The fact that political ideologies are tangible realities is not a proof of their vitally necessary character. The bubonic plague was an extraordinarily powerful social reality, but no one would have regarded it as vitally necessary.

- Wilhelm Reich

Welcome to Insanely Witty Stupidity

The primary goal of Insanely Witty Stupidity is to entertain users. It serves mainly as a "hobby" site for its maintainer (artist-hacker-philosopher Michael Atkins). On the site, you'll find books and short stories, artwork, free software (software that serves a user rather than controlling him/her), blog-style commentary about the website and other interesting things (Witty News), tools for browsing the web (see below), random thoughts about politics and science, and more.

What Does Insanely Witty Stupidity Have to Offer?

There are ongoing book series (Case's Cases and Hailey's Follies), short stories or "novella" (L.I.N. & Chuck), oddball custom software (like the Candice project), weird art projects, and more (see links above). They are not updated very often. But, they are alive and well. And, progress will continue as long as the ruling elite allows. Updates about Insanely Witty Stupidity series are discussed pretty regularly in the Witty News column. And, changes are documented in the website's changelog (see below).

What Is Free Software?

The true purpose of software is hacking, not office work. Hacking is not security breaking (despite an unsavory reputation it has been appointed by unknowledgeable journalists). It is only creativity employed to make better use of everyday things. For a more detailed analysis, read Richard Stallman's article about hacking vs. cracking.

Free software may be something non-hackers have never heard of. Simply put, it provides some of the best tools a developer can produce for solving a problem (the goal of any software suite). By contrast, non-free software typically limits a user's problem solving to a simple set of tools that are not adequate for the job. For example, compare Microsoft's text editor "Notepad" to GNU's text editor "Emacs".

If you think your secrets are safe with Facecrook's maintainers-- they're not. Even if you're using some Fakebook "appppp" for your little iThingy-- still not safe.

The ol' dumb-dumb party is passing a bill that has-- some kinda climate change stuff in it (or something). Because they think it's still 1960, and the largest problem human beings face is they gonna go to da moooooon-- and do da other thiiiiiings--

A Dallas resident beat the shit out of some worthless low-life trying to cash in on his useless catalytic converter. If state governments did not require adding the fake technology (which is completely unscientific in origin and touts suspicious chemical properties that require loss of material-- without any loss of material) to automobile exhaust systems, then people would have no need to steal them.

First, "create" a need. Then, sell it to people. ;)
