To Escape The Shackles Of The Old Forums, We Must Reject The Tribal Negativity He Endorsed

yeah, jim may have licensed his characters for every product under the sun, but he hasn't (as far as i've seen) went on a rant genders, "superiority", nor publicly listed his incredibly long list of being scammed

jim davis has zero artistic integrity but seems to be a decent person. he sold his company and semi-retired a few years ago, but until then he was very focused on structuring business deals to ensure they brought money and jobs to his podunk small town that otherwise didn't have much going for it.

nah but for real i’ve been trying to deal with ibs for a couple decades and finally kinda discovered that loperamide just fixes it. idk how, because if there are things going thru me that irritate me, how does slowing it down totally fix every symptom?

i’ve worked out the trick is to take two loperamides if you need to take a dump, and then you don’t need to poo poo for a couple days or more, the solution is that simple

Scott is claiming he is canceled for his politics but in reality the papers are all owned by one company that is just saving money but eliminating comics.

one of his books had the pro-tip that if you're the messier one in the relationship you can just: stop cleaning. your partner has only 2 options, either clean or let their standards relax, either way you don't have to do anything!!!! those are the only two options!!!


btw the woman he was married to when he wrote that divorced him? idk why tho

IIRC the chapter with the size-doubling pseudo-gravity also involved Adams asserting that evolution would be disproven in his lifetime, which is... a remarkable claim. I don't even think he had an argument for it besides "question everything, maaaaan!"

that's one of my favorite examples because he said that the mechanism by which it may be disprove in because we might disprove linear time.
