Honey isn't made from pollen. Holbrook has been doing animal comics for a thousand years but never bother to learn anything about how actual animals behave.

I mean - how many years of "animals just love eating dead leaves" comics has he done? Someone has to have corrected him by now but he just keeps doing it.

I really thought that Arthur was going to say "you can go, and so can the "outlaws" right behind you, armed with whatever they can get their hands on." I guess that might be a little too encouraging of violence against the nobility.

I feel like there's a grain of truth in what Josh says, in that dwelling too much in a bad mood over something when you can't fix it can end up poisoning your entire day, but people always use this to be like, wow, how dare you have normal human emotions over being abused and berated at work. Plus it's not really anyone else's business as long as you're not taking it out on other people, and Cooper complains but isn't the type to lash out at others, so...

I believe so. I've take the subway in NYC more than a few times and it can be an absolute struggle to get through depending on time of day and location.

MT spinning its wheels for weeks now but I'm gonna poke fun at the sheer incompetence of the Jules Thought Bubble across multiple panels depicting the same item. Is this for readers who can't be expected to... piece together object permanency between panels?

It's both that and also like. Entering adulthood traditions in the vein of quincea�era or bat mitzvah or like debutante/cotillion. And going to get even more complicated due to her parents not being ethnically tigresses but definitely Tiger Mom-coded. I'm not excited by where this goes is all I'm saying.
