BonHair posted:I've been thinking that too. It seems like there's a lot less duck in the void recently, and more story-like narrative. It's still racist and stupid, but with more effort. Maybe an editor has spoken to him? This is Tinsley. If an editor criticized him, the next three weeks would be him calling the editor a loving Jew pedophile liberal just trying to persecute Republicans.

For Ramirez, that's a decent caricature. Which means if you submitted it to an art professor they'd probably recommend a different major.

loquacius posted:I know this is all water under the bridge at this point, but it makes me as angry as always that we can spend $300 million to explode some patch of ground in Afghanistan one time but we can't guarantee everyone healthcare because that would cost money By the time they use the bomb, the money spent for purchasing it has long been spent. In other words, you're not saving millions by not using your bomb, you're just not making use of your investment. HootTheOwl posted:I thought those were for the guided bombs.

I wasn't trying to say we should have spent $300 million making a bomb just to say we could, I was saying it still makes me mad that building really huge bombs is something we consider worthy of investment but the health and well-being of our population is not (although thinking the single bomb cost $300 million was part of why I was mad when I wrote the original post)

Starshark posted:That's right, they're never going to replace that bomb after they use it. Bombs aren't replaced unit-by-unit, they're bought in batches. Dropping a MOAB now doesn't mean you're going to buy a replacement immediately. Furthermore, bombs like pretty much everything else have a limited shelf-life. After a while, they're not good for service anymore and have to be scrapped. Scrapping a bomb is expensive because it's a sensitive task (you're talking about explosive stuff after all; you can't just toss it into an industrial shredder). So basically how it works is that the defense administration (Pentagon for the US) budgets for a number of ammunition and ordnance that are expected to last for X years. If operationally they're used faster than planned, you'll have to buy more sooner than expected, and it'll cost you. But if you don't use them? Then they just sit in storerooms until it's time to scrap them, at which point it would have been cheaper to drop them on some enemies.

Did you mean to say this because we're talking about buying + not-using vs buying + using, and what you're saying sounds like a conversation you're having with the invisible cat under your bed. While you're on, look up tritonal disposal and try telling me the process costs $170 000 per bomb. That's assuming they're not recycling it, which is definitely in the works if not being done now.

Hey, somebody posted some pages ago about Ben Garrison losing some of that sweet Patreon cash after his last cartoon that was almost-sort-of-critical of God Emperor Trump, and that he was complaining about it on his blog or whatever. Could somebody link to it/ post screenshots? Consider it a belated birthday gift for me

Don't forget how he apparently pulled the nails from his hands, and then stuck them neatly back where his hands were on the cross. Which is a symbol of how Glenn McCoy has no power over the medium of art.
