When I want to relax, I read an essay by Engels. When I want something more serious, I read Corto Maltese.


Stop the horror that is Chickwood Lane. Please. For the sake of the children.

In today's Corto Maltese: Anger is one hell of a quick way to recover from trauma, or Corto gets angry at Rasputin, or The soundtrack to the last page can be found here.

I had to check this, Diana Spencer died in August '97.

For some loving reason she was also on a tabloid cover here yesterday :suicide:

Interesting article. I'm not sure whether screeving would be considered peddling or busking or what, but based on a previous strip, I had thought that the deal with Dustin's sidewalk art needing a permit was that he was trying to make money with it and had a donations jar sitting somewhere.

Dangit, Jumbo, stars aren't gas! They're plasma!

EDIT: Okay I'm also actually annoyed by the fact that 'stars are distant suns, many of which have their own planets, slowly formed and birthed from colorful dust clouds and providing a source of light and heat for the universe' isn't like, wonderous enough for Rose is Rose. 'Oh science takes all the magic out of everything' gently caress off things can be even more cool and interesting when you know what's happening.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

I just want to highlight that Dustin's art here is better than the rest of the comic.
