I spent 15 years in fast food and one of my favorite things to do throughout was laugh in the face of anybody who predicted my job was going to be automated away. Absolute morons with no conception of how either actual labor or technology works lmao Now that we are in the point where the industry either has to pay more or go full in on robots I get to laugh even harder. I'd put good money on political cartooning being more likely to get automated. Every strip is 99% the same as every other and the text a constant font

Raised By Birds posted:Tony Branco I just want to reiterate that it's spectacular that notorious dumb dumb Tony Branco actually managed to do the Don Quixote metaphor right, when nearly every other cartoonist loving butchers it. Even Donkey-Wokey and Man of Da Mentia are decently crafted puns. gently caress. With the exception of the dogshit art, unnecessary labels and overlong speech bubble, Branco almost competently executed the job he's paid for. It's like seeing Gorrell draw something for himself instead of just applying a filter to the first result on google image search or Ramirez doing a caraciature that somewhat resembles the person. hooman fucked around with this message at 04:14 on Jan 16, 2022 |

I'm setting up the OP for the 2021 Kellies thread now. This is the currently planned list of Kategories: Worst “A Thing Happened” Cartoon Best Cartoon Least Concealed Bigotry in a Cartoon (gender) Least Concealed Bigotry in a Cartoon (race) Least Concealed Bigotry in a Cartoon (all other) Worst Caricature Worst Covid Particle Cartoon Worst Q/Deep State Cartoon Worst COVID-19 Cartoon Worst Gaslighting Laziest Non-Gorrell Cartoon Worst Label Most Incomprehensible Cartoon Worst Obituary Cartoon Best Edit/Parody Worst Primary Election Cartoon Worst General Election Cartoon Most Easily Reinterpreted Worst Cartoon about a (non-covid) Tragedy Worst Cartoon about Terrorism Most Willfully Dense Worst Overall Are there any additional ones we should have, or ones we should remove? I intend to condense or remove kategories with an insufficient set of entries, as usual. edit: dear lord, there were more than 300 nominations last year.

Absolute morons with no conception of how either actual labor or technology works lmao It's especially great because people like him love nothing more than pretend that they're the only adults in the room, while it's the looney left that has no idea how the Real World works. But this rear end in a top hat always depicts fast food workers as a cashier in a funny hat next to a register, showing that he has no idea how fast food goes from point A to point his mouth. How the hell is a touch screen going to automate unloading a truck, or taking stock or, you know, cooking your drat food. Yes, parts of this can be automated, but complex specialized jobs require complex specialized machines, and those machines require complex and specialized workers too service them. They can get away with paying fast food workers minimum wage, but good luck paying minimum wage to the army of mechanics needed to service your hundreds of thousands of burger conveyers. Or giving minimum wage to the IT team that needs to figure why the hell it is whenever someone orders a double burger, no onions, medium fries, large sprite and a small strawberry sundae, the space age robo hand decides instead to hit the customer with a fish sandwich.

I can tell you that McDonalds specifically refuses to pay even remotely enough for the outsourced IT they use. Specifically they refuse to pay for contracts that cover night time or weekends. So if a credit card machine is broken or a cash register craps out there is no work done until 9-5 normal weekdays. Any hypothetical robot replacement would be broken all the time.

The ice cream is its own can of worms but specifically if the credit card machine is going slow at a mcdonalds it's because their primary internet is down and they're on a dial up backup. This will not be fixed until the next business day at the earliest.

They still say n-----, n-----, n----- which backfires. It's like how Fox was begging Trump to call off the coup, not because they disagreed with the ultimate goals but because it was so clumsy and obvious it actually hurt the cause of undermining democracy.

You see, there's the KKK which was 100% invented by Democrats and has only ever had democrats for members and are easily identified by the pointy white hoods, and then there's the people who believe everything that the Klan believes, but they dress nice and dogwhistle everything into how they just want to explore alternative viewpoints on race and how anyone insufficiently white is actually subhuman chattel.

 Sinfest Sunday!       Here lies Uncle Sam, symbol of a country founded by slavery and genocide. All of that was fine though, but what really corrupted his wholesomeness and made him worthy of death was (checks notes) "Dismantling a corrupt prison system and saying trans people deserve rights"....huh....

What Killed America? a. The unleashing of corporate greed in the Reagan years, resulting in the degradation of the working and middle classes b. Granting the executive virtually limitless power on the pretext of fighting communism c. Getting criticized for using anti-trans slurs on social media d. Failure to confront and root out the original sin of white supremacy leading to an an embrace of outright fascism to maintain white power Answer: c. a, b, and d are America

It's so crazy that Ishida had a decent sense of composition and editing at one point, then just chose to.... stop doing it. This has an actual line of action from panel to panel, not just jarring perspective shifts like he's been doing for years. EDIT - I guess the dailies aren't bad but his Sunday strips always literally make me feel dizzy when I try to parse them. After The War fucked around with this message at 18:25 on Jan 16, 2022 |
