I've said before, but I always got the impression Stantis figured this sort of exchange was on par with Lewis Carroll and the conversations with Tweedledee and Tweedledum. But he has a child's understanding of what made their confusing, contradictory dialog amusing to begin with, so literally all he writes, over and over for hundreds of strips, is this loving gray oatmeal of "Yes with no? But also no with yes! Ooh, what amusing banter I've created!!!"
Shut the gently caress up Stantis, you're not Watterson and you're sure as hell not Carroll.

SNIFF! WHAT’S THAT SMELL? HUNTER’S LAPTOP RETURNS

It’s not ‘Russian disinformation.’ It’s real. It has always been real.

The laptop proves the Bidens are corrupt. It shows our security agencies are corrupt. It shows our media is corrupt.—they will lie to protect candidates assigned by the Deep State Swamp.

The FBI and CIA protect that swamp as well. They have become politicized. They sat on the laptop and did nothing because they wanted to help the sleaze bag that is Joe Biden. Twitter, Facebook, and the establishment media are censorious liars. They cannot be trusted. They banned countless people because they wanted to exercise their free speech and discuss the laptop during an election year. Social media certainly won’t apologize for banning real journalists who wanted to cover the sordid contents found on the laptop.

The laptop proves that Hunter was kicking 10 percent of the bribes he received from Ukraine and China up to the ‘big guy.’ His father. A Democrat-controlled Congress will do nothing about it. The Biden DOJ will do nothing about it. The corporate media is part of the Deep State Swamp. They will not investigate it. If they do mention it, they’ll probably once again blame it on Putin.

When Joe got his party’s nomination I remember a political analyst on CNN tell a blatant lie. He confidently said Joe Biden’s reputation is ‘as clean as a whistle.’ I laughed out loud. He obviously ignored how Biden’s brother cashed in on pre-arranged business deals thanks to Dirty Joe pulling political strings. Joe made sure Hunter raked in millions of dollars and even saw to it that a Ukrainian prosecutor investigating his son was fired. Joe is a habitual liar and the very face of political corruption. Hunter’s laptop only underlines that fact. Of course, the mainstream corporate media did the same for Obama. They ignored or covered up all of his many scandals and then began saying his administration was ’scandal free.’ It was anything but.

We can’t trust our government. We can’t trust corporate media. We can’t trust social media. We can’t trust Big Pharma. We can’t trust what many educators are teaching our children. We can’t trust the military industrial complex. We can’t trust what they’re putting in our food, air, and water. We especially can’t trust the Federal Reserve and the central banks.

Aside from God, there’s not much left of our country that we can trust.

Again a very likpatous story
Only tangentially related to political cartoons and a discussion a couple of weeks back, but remember when the person looking back through Sinfest on Twitter posted the one comic about surrogate parents, and someone asked what was wrong with surrogate parents? I said that I thought it was probably just a weird thing only Ishida cared about, but after looking at the comments on a post about how the right is furious that Dave Rubin has adopted kids, I found out that no, this is actually a thing.

Oh yeah absolutely. They didn't have a problem with it before gay couples started using it, and all their talk about "commodification of women" and "class war" poo poo is just trying to trick liberals into opposing it, same as how TERFs co-opt feminist arguments to hate on trans women. Just saying that it's apparently a movement with at least some support, even if all that support is homophobic.

As far as I can tell, someone finally authenticated that the physical laptop actually belonged to Hunter Biden, so the right is screaming about that and not the actual issue (how the hell did Rudy Giuliani get the laptop, how can we know if/which of the files it contain weren't fabricated, and how much consideration should we give to the the motivations and methods of the people involved?). In particular, the NYT wrote an article about Hunter Biden's tax problems where they referred to the laptop and some of the files from it:
“Those emails were obtained by The New York Times from a cache of files that appears to have come from a laptop abandoned by Mr. Biden in a Delaware repair shop. The email and others in the cache were authenticated by people familiar with them and with the investigation.”
Which wasn't really the problem unless you believed that Hunter Biden was saving screenshots of nude pictures from his own cloud storage onto his laptop for some reason.

And now it's over, huge sigh of relief as he gets to abandon this pointless plotline in favor of just whining that nobody is doing enough about Putin, no indication about what "enough" would entail
