Every so often you discover that a website from the mid-90s is still somehow functioning, still up and running, a relic from a dinosaur age that has somehow persevered.

Sometimes you only find out because those websites finally go bust.

Not every site can last from Bill Clinton's first term until today. One might feel inclined to mourn when something like that comes in an end.

But in this case I think I can muster up a little schadenfreude!

Here's how the site wrote its own obituary:

Today, after 31 years, we are saddened to announce that Salon is ceasing publication. ...

When Salon launched in November 1995, the web was a very different place. A small group of journalists set out to create something original: a publication with a strong voice, a curiosity about the world and a belief that the internet could bring journalism and readers together in new ways. They helped pioneer a form of journalism that would come to define an entirely new era of publishing. ...

The business realities of independent digital journalism have changed profoundly over the years. After careful consideration, we have reached the difficult decision that our publishing model is no longer sustainable. We know this news will be deeply disappointing to many of you, and we share that sadness.

To "many of you"?

Anyway, before we see Salon off into the digital sunset, it's worth it to reflect on a few of the website's all-time classics from over the years:

Quite a list!

But THIS was the most savage reply:

(That man waited nine years for revenge!)

Longtime readers of Salon (all three of you) will remember that mega-feminist Amanda Marcotte has been a mainstay at the site for years and years. She has published countless far-left screeds from a broke, disordered feminist perspective.

Alas, she is now out of work, and is actively soliciting for employment:

"If you want to hire me, DM me!" I'm sure someone will respond.

Amanda, you could always come write for The Babylon Bee. They'd love your headlines!
