There's a problem in Florida because people who buy pet pythons/boas/whatever often release them into the wild when they get huge. Yeah, gently caress Jeb for increasing the snake fee to discourage snake ownership, gently caress taxes! Fuckin' RINO metal bawkses!!

If you like joke a panel stuff, First Dog is pretty good. If you have more ADD than me, I don't know what to say other than that mine is harming me professionally and you really ought to get that looked at.

Adderall helps me a lot when I remember to take it, but my eyes glaze over when I see a Rall, or Animal Nulz, and I have a hard time getting through Tom the Dancing Bug (even though they're good), but good luck if I'm going to get through First Dog.

I'm mostly joking because it's actually technical specification documents I literally cannot get through (guess what I work with!). Joke a panel stuff goes great for me because I get through them and the jokes help keep me going. Also as of now I have discovered three categories of medication, that which gives me insomnia and works, that which does neither, and that which the insurance company really doesn't want to cover. I think I'll be avoiding actual stimulants, thanks.

Huh. I'm pretty sure that cartoon demonstrates a better understanding of the subject than I would've credited him for. It takes some degree of knowledge to be utterly, exactly wrong in every single regard lest you accidentally be right, right?

After an eyesight-loving ten minutes I figured out it was "Intersectionalism" Good job with the red-on-purple words there, chucklefuck.

Intersectionalism, or intersectionality, is "the study of minorities within minorities, or intersections between minorities; specifically, the study of the interactions of multiple systems of oppression or discrimination". This leaves me very little the wiser when it comes to the cartoon. He is, however, yet another shithead who's making orders of magnitude more on Patreon than I am or ever will. Here's an animated cartoon he made.

Every time i come across a Sargon 'relevant' list, it's always linked to Anita Sarkeesian hate. Its really sad that hatred of her has become its own youtuber bread-and-butter. A lot of terrible people have won a ton of subscribers (and therefore money) by being lovely about her.

So what the cartoon is trying to say is it's bad for minorities to care about different things because it divides them and makes them less powerful and prevents them from uniting on other things?

I don't agree with that, but at least it makes sense.

I'm pretty sure it's more an attempt to co-opt his opponents' language without understanding it because he's mad that intersectionalism is an answer for some brands of concern trolling, which he deliberately misinterprets as meaning that nobody can speak out about anything because nobody lives the entire minority experience.

Nah. Intersectionality, in layman's terms, refers to the fact that many people who support feminism and gay rights do so in a very... let's call it a very white way. Outspoken feminists who are otherwise doing very good work may only be talking about how much white women make in comparison to white men, and ignore that black women and latina women make even less. The form of the gay rights movement that is most commonly in the public eye is focused on gay white males exclusively and ignores LGBT people of color or indeed people who are LGBT but aren't part of the "G" category. The lovely cartoonist is concern trolling that intersectionality is causing infighting and stopping those movements from making a difference. But arguments about intersectionality are interested in strengthening those movements by making them more inclusive, not dividing them or slowing them down. If anything, it's people like TERFs who are actively slowing down their movements by fighting intersectionality because they don't want to share their movement.

There's some pretty impressively dumb cartoons in this post, but these are the two that stood out, because they're so dumb.

The Oscars are the same thing as a Bernie Sanders rally. Not "they are analogous in the way that this cartoon indicates visually," but "they are the same thing." A Bernie Sanders rally is a masturbatory black-tie gala held annually by a creaking and ancient industry group. The Oscars are a political rally in support of a candidate who is wildly popular among certain demographics but has struggled to build a wider coalition. The cartoon didn't say that until you made it say that. It didn't *have* to say that.

Also: Hot water is for rich people. It's true that hot water costs more, because you have to pay to heat it with oil or electricity, and I've heard that hotter water leaches minerals from pipes at higher levels than cooler water. That's not really what this crisis is about, though, in any respect. Really dumb.

I recall some talk in Pet Island a while back about how normally progressive reptile owners were possibly willing to side with the Republicans to keep their pet rights, basically pushing the issue as one of small vs. big government. Given that sudden Snake Fees cartoon, I'm guessing that went through after all.

EDIT: Specifically, because the left wing is associated with environmentalists, which are often at odds for the reasons Post 9/11 User stated.

The Ohman cartoon isn't saying hot water is for rich people. It's saying the poor in Flint are getting different water than the rich. It's an uncharacteristically easily misinterpreted cartoon from Ohman, but I got what it was trying to say. Agreed that it could be better.
