SOUBOUTEI MUST BE DESTROYED Okay so all the Prime Ministers didn't go into politics because of Souboutei, but they were all aware of it and terrified of it

Eh, my guess was close enough, though I think it would have been funnier :vCrocodileKingSaysNO posted:in the vein of "Timelets" I like this. Hyouge Mono Ceremony 67: Initials M.D. Peace in our time? The Dragon, the Hero and the Courier Episode 34: The Bandits, Diplomacy and the Courier I think this plan might be a bit too clever for its own good.

Man, Sōji got dealt a rough hand. Wiki noted that his Secret Tea Book is associated with the saying "ichi-go ichi-e" (一期一会) or "one time, one meeting" which is a rather Zen idea that every get-together, even if it is with the same people, is unique and in that sense the only one, so you should (mentally and otherwise) prepare for every tea session and enjoy it as if it were the only time you are going to meet your guest(s). drat you Hyouge Mono for actually getting me interested in the philosophy behind the tea ceremony, it's such a good comic.

Worm comic makes me feel guilty for my work digging holes, during which I have been an unfeeling and unknowable being cleaving worms in my wake.

Lavender Jack I like the little cutout panels on the big action sequence, but the colored windows/uncolored background is a bit wasted since the setting is so monochrome to begin with.

Farg posted:That doesn't make sense To the worm the human is an unimaginable existence, from the worm's perspective it was dying of thirst alone far from home when a being beyond its comprehension came. The worm was lifted up above its plane of reality (the word plane here being quite literal, the surface) at speeds impossible to its frame of reference only to be deposited safely at home. From the human's perspective they saw a little critter in trouble and gave it a hand. Think of it like an alien encounter story where the twist is that the mysterious but benevolent entity is just a human as it would appear to something tiny, a mundane act of kindness would be interpreted as something alien and grand. I like these kind of stories, like if there's really intelligent life out there and it's more advanced than us that they would do something kind for a human even if it was incomprehensible to us.

what? no, no. https://pbfcomics.com/comics/worm/ we see a cunning recharacterisation of the popular twitter meme, "would you still love me if i were a worm". the godlike figure represents the divergent nature of christianity in practice compared to christianity as preached, and (etc)

I think the comic maker just drew whatever, for fun.

OBVIOUSLY the Worm comic is about Communism. See how the incomprehensible being is made out countless smaller things? It represents Collective Action. Our protagonist, stuck in the rut of individualistic thinking, finds himself facing an ignoble end because he lacks the means to subsist on his own. When Collective Action steps in to help him (as with social programs, food banks, or other similar means of supporting those in need), its voice is incomprehensible because he lacks the words and knowledge to understand. Its touch and taste was painful, because it is unfamiliar and can only trigger feelings of paranoia and wariness in one who has never felt support. Its form was as complex as the Earth because that's the ideal form of Collective Action: all of us, everything working together in sync with each other and the very planet itself for true prosperity In the next panel, our protagonist is "thrust into a dimension [he] could not have imagined before." This is him coming to understand the value of Collective Action, and of the possibilities that come into reach once we start working together. The ether rushing past him represents how quickly everything else falls into place once you understand these few basic tenets: that together we are greater than any of us are alone Finally, the protagonist has fully embraced the idea of Collective Action, and to him it now feels like home, because there is nothing more natural than being part of this great ecosystem. And when your basic needs are met, and you don't have to spend your life stressing trying to barely survive and scrape by, you can achieve self-actualization and put your energy towards better things, like helping out a cool worm you saw, because even the smallest creatures among us are worthy of love and compassion

I think I like this new Lavender Jack baddie guy. Dunno his motives, and whilst his "banter" is a little less foppish and dandyish for my tastes, he seems nice. I hope Lavender Jack/Detective Crabb ends up beating the ever loving poo poo out of him.
