One thing to keep in mind is that it's not just about the visuals, but about how they got those visuals to work with ridiculous limitations. As an example, "debris", the current top-ranked entry, has a total file size of 180kb and was released in 2007!

Heartbreaking. Isolation is literally torture. Federally condoned torture.

"The federal prison system is probably over 90% drug offenders. Most of them are about as smart as a salt lick, and the staff, from what I've seen, isn't much smarter. "

If you were looking for yet more proof to add to the pile that the fed was and is using anti-drug politics to throw anyone they want in prison.
