loquacius posted:When was the last time Muir made a comic without titties in it? Is that just like an every day thing now? Is it a purposeful change of direction or is it more like when he legit didn't realize he was having the characters chop vegetables every single day until someone pointed it out to him? Muir is doing a fundraiser

Sinners Sandwich posted:Leonard Nimoy dies a billion political cartoons. I was wondering about that myself, where are the cartoons? I feel like, as a military veteran that was sworn to secrecy, he snuck out of this dimension with such clever subterfuge the cartoonists are not aware of it. I'm collaborating with people to get a bunch of Christopher Lee movies and watch them soon, even making a neat-o banner in tribute. When Nimoy passed it was titled Spock Night which was a travesty, this will be Christopher Lee night. That Lee snuck passed the cartoonists is nothing but a good thing, rather than having these hacks flail their arms and barf on a page in some sham of an homage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9MuEA2eF8c Speaking of tributes, I have no idea if this is meant to be an insult or not: Wangari Maathai 5 Filed Under: AFRICA, KENYA Tagged: GREEN, MAATHAI, TREES, WANGARI Squinting: (this is the full resolution) Courage, Peace, Leadership, Excellence If I knew anything about African politics I would share context on each one, sorry. I added the title (even when it says the same thing as the cartoon, shut it!) and the hashtags to help a bit (there's no author commentary). Fighting Corruption Has Never Been This Fun… 1 Filed Under: KENYA Tagged: EACC Honor Among Thieves #Parliament 2 Filed Under: KENYA Tagged: MPIGS, PARLIAMENT (I don't know what MPIGS... new video encoding software? ) Parliament: A condemned building that needs to be shut down! 3 Filed Under: KENYA Tagged: PARLIAMENT AU reacts to news of Dying African migrants! 4 Filed Under: AFRICA Tagged: AU, MIGRANTS Seems kinda hosed up to use primate imagery or to show people battling with swords after the atrocities that happened not so long ago. I did a cursory search and there doesn't seem to be a television series he's making fun of, either, just "row" in the British parlance.

It's not even a store, it's a chain hotel, so I would normally understand even less why he's mourning it, but the answer is so obvious: JRROSE!

Tolkein, Sax Rohmer, and Charlemagne are all peaking over the wall giving a thumbs up and smiling while shedding a single tear. On Earth below, Lady Liberty is crying next to his grave in Arlington Cemetery.

I don't know if he realizes this, but I don't think I've ever seen a single "hero" character in Day By Day who wasn't drawn in as smug a pose as humanly loving possible.

Looks like the HoJo's JRROSE! is reminiscing about was a restaurant as well as a motel, so that would probably explain it: there are only a handful of Howard Johnson's restaurants still open, and they are powerful Boomer Nostalgia Totems.

The only thing Tinsley and co. know about education is that common core is the devil and everyone gets a trophy. Also all the money we ever give to schools goes to teacher's unions fat cats so we should stop giving schools money because it's not going to help the kids anyways. Basically anyone with kids who aren't in schools anymore doesn't see a reason for them to exist so shut it all down, it's worthless anyways.
