The Bloop posted:It isn't a thousand yard stare or anything, it just looks like he is vaguely contemplating a shoe, like wondering how it's laced up or something Taken without context it's not even obvious that the object in his hands is a shoe, he might as well be working on a Lego starship. Probably partly because some sneakers don't look like shoes, but also because it's the size of his body/head.

Also why do runners go to distant planets to train? Can't they just train on their own planet? Acclimatization! You gotta let your lungs adjust to a methane atmosphere.

Death Ray posted:Essentially, any well known comic strip character you can name has been in Weapon Brown. I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel here, looking for those hidden gems. (This thread is the reason Everett True got in!) How about Heimo Vesa from Fingerpori? Guaranteed not recognized by anyone at all but looks already like a refugee. He could be handing viperless milk as aid to refugees. Since you've had Moomin, what about other Tove Jansson characters like Snufkin (a carefree hobo), Stinky (he could be styled as a gangster wearing a black furcoat maybe?) and if you want a whole locust like swarm, the Mymbles (including Little My):

Mikl posted:loving hell, Japan, how about giving your employees humane work hours instead? It's not that simple after decades after decades of telling workers that if you don't habitually work overtime then you're not dedicated to your company. The other thing which this story doesn't mention is pay. quote:A drone that hovers over Japanese employees and blares music to force them to go home was unveiled by its maker Thursday, as the country tries to reduce its notoriously long work hours.

The_Other posted:I think it might have something to do with the Great Depression, i.e. in the past people were able to spend more. Probably so, at least indirectly. Those people don't look particularly poor especially with that precision scale and measuring cups and all. I think the precise measures and slices of citrus fruits are a clue of scientific diet (A FAD!) becoming more hip. But the reason why this might be so may be because during depressions, big wars and other crisis the government and media will readily spread nutrition facts about how many calories you need and where you can get vitamins. Nutrition had existed for a long time but the focus had been on getting enough calories for factory workers to be productive, that sort of thing. Another important factor was the 1920's thinness trend which required constant dieting from young women, who would have to internalise these things and probably would be ready to use their knowledge when raising children: https://www.sciencehistory.org/distillations/magazine/counting-calories quote:Diet and Health sold like calorie-laden hotcakes. Frequently cited as America’s first best-selling diet book, the book sold 2 million copies—800,000 in hardcover—and was in continuous publication from 1918 to 1939. In 1922 alone the 105-page book went through 9 printings and topped the New York Tribune’s list of best-selling nonfiction books. By 1930, the year Peters died, the word calorie seemed to roll off people’s tongues, and even some schoolchildren were fluent in calorie counting. In 1927 one home economist observed that “in this country the calorie is a familiar word in the vocabulary of practically every adult, and anyone who doubts the possibility of popularizing it should observe a group of ten-year-old children counting their calories.”

Tiggum posted:Daddy's Home I had to check that this is a real syndicated comic and not some weird rear end Dustin parody. I like it that in the first panel they are outdoors with a tree in the background, in the last panel they are standing by a bar counter and in the middle panel the worlds switch (maybe a nuclear explosion) and you can see the tree and the counter at the same time. So existential.
