Sorry I know this was a while ago but it reminded me of an actual newspaper article I saw the other day saying that workers have to return to the office at least 3 days per week in order to prevent services businesses in the CBD collapsing (sorry I can't find the article again right now). When people need some money to prevent themselves from collapsing that's a big issue. When businesses need you to change the behaviour that suits you so that you're forced to spend more of your money with them, that's fine.

Twelve by Pies posted:He in fact cared quite a bit. Besides, you want to tell me that Legolas and Gimli weren't gay? Gimli sailed West with Legolas, the only dwarf to ever do so, due to the great love felt between the two. It may not be explicit text because it's a very old story, but they are gay coded to Valinor and back. Also, friendly reminder that Sam canonically has brown skin, as do a majority of the hobbits according to Tolkien's official descriptions of the various clans of hobbits. Sam is even described in the same terms that the Haradrim are

War Wizard posted:
Technically the menu says "McTaxpayers" so the implication is that they're getting these things from the taxpayers. Which of course is not how debt relief or tax credits work, but you know. What I'm confused about is why the guy in the drive thru window looks annoyed. The metaphor being used her breaks down completely because presumably the employee is a taxpayer and thus paying for the things the guy is ordering. Except Payne is using a fast food metaphor, and when someone orders a Big Mac from McDonald's, the cashier does not pull five dollars out of their own wallet to pay for it. The cashier does not order ingredients with his own money, and he also doesn't get to keep any Big Macs that McDonald's doesn't sell. So the employee shouldn't really care if this guy is getting stuff from McTaxpayer's since he's not paying for it. It would have made more sense if a government employee with a big IRS badge or something was working the window and smiling. Then the implication would be this guy is happy to give the driver his debt relief and tax credit from the taxpayers. Payne is an idiot though so he didn't do that. Or, maybe he originally thought to do that, but then decided that having a smiling guy in the drive thru and a smiling guy working the window would make people think that debt relief and EV tax credits are good, and he wouldn't have a beleaguered everyman showing that it's actually bad. Either way, Payne is still a loving idiot and a lovely cartoonist.

Rall: Now Those Guys Are Really Scary. Ted Rall posted:President Biden delivered a primetime speech that was marketed as an appeal to protect American democracy but directly targeted President Trump and his Republican supporters as the main threat to that noble institution. Gravely undermining his antiauthoritarian message was the stagecraft of the event in Philadelphia, which featured dystopian lighting and the ominous sight of two US Marines standing at attention.

The cries of wokism because there’s a black elf in the new LotR show is funny because they all always go “I’m such a huuuuuge Tolkien fan, I’ve read his books multiple times he’d be so upset about it” yet they have no response when it’s pointed out the charcter, and entire race of Harfoots, is literally deceived as having brown skin. Must’ve slipped past your multiple impassioned readings of LotR that you’re such a big fan of, right?
