They serve the evilest beings around. After their standalone movie came out, I think this very cartoonist depicted them serving the democrats.

While this doesn't fill me with the same level of incandescent rage that weepily invoking 9/11 does among these shitbags, I do find it incredibly disgusting. Then again, it's kind of fitting they lionize dead soldiers. Dead soldiers don't need any kind of support, as opposed to the people that get out the other side alive but physically or emotionally wrecked.

I won't pretend this isn't lovely, but I think it's trying to hit both Biden and Gru? But that would require these Facebook-addled fuckalopes to remember that Despicable Me ever existed, instead of Minions just kind of devouring the entire franchise.

95%+ of Stantis's art is reused. There's a few generic, lifeless poses he strings together, sometimes with an optional extra hand gesture on a lower layer. It's why nothing is visually expressive. Everything's pulled from a library of premade drawings.

As a non-American, it does feel weird to see all those cartoons celebrating dead soldiers who died in wars outside of the US, in which the territorial intergity of the US was never in danger and saying that they died defending something and it's "the price of freedom", when the only thing that was in danger was the price of oil.

No wait, that's the wrong word. I don't feel weird.

"Coerced tipping"

You are free not to tip at any time but everyone will think you're an rear end in a top hat so it's basically a mugging qq

Can't we just fire the workers instead so I don't have to see them?

Since they just want the workers fired and replaced with androids it's probably shame not guilt.

They don't like looking like an rear end in a top hat in front of other people because that's embarrassing, but they don't feel anything for the worker at all.

French is continuing to move around this thing called the Jespersen Cycle. It's a general kind of thing languages just do on their own, but French conveniently has been doing it very rapidly for a long time when he happen to have good records so it's the model. Basically, word meanings change over time and that applies to the functional-machinery grammar words too. The Jespersen Cycle is the weakening of negation leading to the necessity of intensifiers eventually allowing the intensifiers to "become" the negative element.

In Old French a.k.a. Really, Really Vulgar Latin you made sentences negative with ne (which is straight from Latin) : Charles ne marche (Charles NEG walk) "Charles isn't walking". Then in Middle French, they started wanting to make it really clear they were negating things so they would add an intensifying noun : Charles ne marche pas (Charles NEG walk step) "Charles isn't walking a single step". Over time, this became so common that it was reanalyzed as just the way you say negation and this should seem familiar if you learned French in school or hang around weirdos who care about "proper" French. By now "Charles ne marche" is actually ungrammatical because you'd be skipping half of the negation. (There were other intensifiers like "not eating a single crumb" or "not drinking a single drop", but as pas was reanalyzed those died out, probably just because there are a lot of verbs of motion and it was the "elsewhere case" so to speak.)

But if you actually go to France or talk casually it's semi-mandatory that you drop the ne, because pas is the real negator now! You can say it, people understand you, but you're gonna sound wrong so you definitely shouldn't because this is the "real" French just like we're casually posting in the "real" English. In normal conversation that's not a news broadcast, pretty much everyone uses only pas after the verb when negating it. And if you want to say "why not?" in French it's pourquoi pas? (for.what PAS)

What's going on with plus is a knock-on effect of the negation leap-frogging over the verb like that. See also rien/personne/etc. Since there's no more ne they're sort of "soaking up" the negation.

Fascinating. Never knew about that cycle. Makes perfect sense.

Lethbridge draws a lot of rugby cartoons and here's one with politics in it. State of Origin is played between NSW and Queensland, the states Albanese and Dutton are from. Current polling on the Voice says Victoria and NSW are the states most likely to vote yes, Queensland is the only state where no is outpolling yes.

Spooner:

Mark McGowan resigns as premier of Western Australia, saying he is ‘exhausted’ (Guardian). His two defining moments as premier were handling COVID where Western Australia shut itself off allowing the state to stay open while the rest of the country had rolling lockdowns giving him sky-high popularity (at one point 91% approval rating), and his re-election where he got the largest win in WA history with 53 out of 59 seats.
