only because it's inconveniencing poor stepped upon white men

Well, sure. It's like the one Garrison I ever agreed with, where he clearly had just gotten a speeding ticket or something and wrote an angry red-faced screed about schlubs who put on cop uniforms and become AUTHORITY MAN inconveniencing (white) citizens.

As someone who reads that thread, no, we don't post Muir there. I think it's just one of those consensus stay-away things, like the worse ones only less bad.

*72 Anthropocene. Lots of workers in the (my) field are coming around to the idea that on the 16th of July 1945 we qualified for the title.

You know, I never really thought about when we'd start marking it, but that makes perfect sense. The first really irreversible change.

The guest Klurf is embarrassingly better at him in both art and conveying a message unambiguously. Too bad they're wrong.

The one klurf is even named "White Man" based on the initials on his... speed suit?

I'm confused. Is this some sort of argument about sola fide, one way or the other? Is Lietha one of those Jack Chick types who thinks good works are completely irrelevant? I only know about his ark fetishism and hatred of Bill Nye.

Or is it literally just "person is famous and seems good but maybe is not a good person slash true christian makes u think"?

I like how you don't put bumper stickers on the front, so it just straight-up says "TERROR".

America is garbage -A.F. Branco

Obama's like "gently caress, this box smells, I'm glad I'm handing it off finally" and Trump is just... nonplussed by it.

Branco's default "uppity Obama" expression really makes this one a lot less aggressive than he probably intended it as.

Gorrell. You literally drew a donkey reaching right and an elephant reaching left. That's what a compromise between the parties they represent would look like.

You were dumb in 2013 and you're dumb now, you hack.

(although "reaching left with your right hand" on the elephant's part is admittedly somewhat compelling, I know it's unintentional.)

Like that one artist who draws ultra-sexualised underage girls sucking cocks and being exploited but then he swaps out the cocks for cell phones and all of a sudden it's legal to put it on Facebook.

I can't decide if I'm judging you for knowing about this or just sadly sighing that this probably isn't actually a unique description of only a single individual on the internet.

The Democrats actually have a really solid bench for the presidency imo, the problem is that no one will ever live up to the lofty ideals of the far-left because they are literally impossible to please. Warren is poised to have a great run, Booker is obviously going to run at some point in the future (depending on how his political stock does in the next 4 years), Keith Ellison has been bucking for more national attention, the list goes on. The republican bench on the other hand is completely hosed, it's how Trump was able to totally usurp the party in the first place. Democrats aren't really in want of candidates, but are in need of solid well-targeted messaging, which has been their problem since basically forever so I'm not sure how they plan on fixing it.

Still hoping for Duckworth/Warren 2020.

Not that she'd actually make a good veep.

A serious question: assuming he isn't already gone and the world is still here, what are the odds of someone challenging Trump at the 2020 RNC?

Wild guess: Fairly low. If he's not already gone and the world is still here, the party as a whole is probably on board with him or at least not willing to rock the boat.

Until I fund wherever USPol went, Jill Stein is doing Things still

Uh, it's gone forever ever since its closure immediately post-election and nobody has told me why. I thought about making a new one but I figured it'd just get instagassed and I'd get probated.

e: much like the 6% of Democratic Florida voters who believed that Hillary Clinton was "an actual, literal devil from Hell" or whatever, I would totally mark myself as "Democrat, believes Obama is a Muslim born in Kenya, will vote for him anyway".

Political cartoonists everywhere must have rejoiced at the RB&BB closure news. They can just do clowns for a week for no reason! Every single day, clowns! Elephants! Whatever circus jokes they want!

edit: wait, poo poo, genuine question, is the Ringling Museum in Sarasota, FL going to stay open? I assume so because it's attached to an actual art museum and endowed by John and Mabel Ringling but the Circus Museum might close and that would be a drat shame because it rules.

Why is Green Arrow there? And why is he trying to give Green Lantern the same look the black guy is?

I assume it's from an issue of the old Green Arrow/Green Lantern series.

Which was way, way better than it sounds from the initial idea of "let's pair two guys who only have a color in common", because the writers actually decided to tackle real social issues eventually.

It's the same thing that was written on that diaper-with-a-stain a few pages back, so I'm guessing it's his formal signature?

Right, its position means it's clearly at the end of the list because it starts again after only one or two more countries tops, it's more amazing he knows that many.

The first of many cartoonists who will struggle to caricature Gorsuch in a way that is distinguishable from Pence.

Guess when you stock your whole political world with old white dudes it gets hard to tell them apart

It genuinely took me a second read to figure out why it wasn't Pence turning into Scalia.

It's not actually on the Sacramento Bee's website anymore as best as I can tell, but it's still on dailykos, and the SacBee still has Ohman's oped defending it.
