I advise anyone confused by Red Panels to go to his Patreon page and watch the video he put up. It's enlightening.

I wonder how much of a donation you have to make for him to reveal his chickenshit name/face.

Also, does Muir actually get posted in the bad webcomics thread? Last time I went there, over 10 pages back didn't reveal one of his strips, despite there being two separate comics featuring single-digit-aged children being raped.

Happy Too New Year!

As I recall, it went something like, "Bad webcomics, eh? I've seen dozens of Lesters and McCoys!", followed shortly by :stare:

Balloons!

quote:

With her glasses and her updo, and her sharp conservative views, Tomomi Inada has sometimes been called �Japan�s Sarah Palin.�

This week, she will have a chance to present herself as a statesman in Washington. And official Washington will have a chance, in turn, to get a good look at the woman who could become Japan�s next prime minister.

A hard-liner who has defended many of Japan�s actions during World War II, she will make her first visit to the United States since being appointed defense minister last month, meeting Defense Secretary Ashton Carter at the Pentagon on Thursday.

Literally the only people who believe the story is about Russia actually hacking votes are people whose sole exposure to the story is coming across the words "Russia," "hacking," and "election" in a single sentence for the very first time. This tired straw man needs to die, unless you can dredge up some actual mainstream media coverage implying actual vote hacking, rather than just bad Facebook shares or tweets or some such.

Our news media has been trying to make it clearer with visual aids:

I remember lots of anonymous internet people saying they would do it but I can't remember what celebrities did.

There were a few. Lena Dunham did, and so did Amy Schumer, who I assume is the lumpy mass Tinsley tried to draw there.

Drinky sure does seem pretty confident the party that - as it's first act this session - tried to poison the ethics watchdog will be cruising to victory again in four years.

Some cartoonists, like Garrison and Bok, post a mile-long screed to accompany their cartoon. Mr. Fish puts it directly into the cartoon.

I guess this is about Ford canceling production of a plant in Mexico. Not sure what Chevy had to do with it.

e: looks like Trump criticized GM about making the Chevy Cruze in Mexico just before the Ford announcement.

It stands for Burger Heaven, you can see it in a couple spots in the cartoon.

I guess so, but it seems oddly specific. There's already a "Burger Heaven" and their logo looks nothing like that. I already figured it wasn't "Barack Hussein", since the H would be the bold letter in that case.

Just seems weird for Ramirez to put the effort into making a logo like that that doesn't also drop a sick Obama burn.

If Darth Vader can find time for his bacta tank while ruling the universe, I'm pretty sure Trump can fart on America from his tanning tub.

I think it works better as a prepping for a hurricane-type joke, as it implies Trump is more like a natural disaster, which causes indiscriminate destruction.

I doubt the comic is at all related to this. Kids soccer is the quintessential "everybody wins" activity in the eyes of conservatives and I wouldn't be surprised if Ramirez was unfamiliar with that story.

Yeah, it's a human interest story from outside the U.S. I'd say that alone makes it a less than 1% chance Ramirez knows about it.
