People keep saying every year that this summer is the hottest one on record, do they expect me to believe it just keeps happening AGAIN???

Oh so there's literally an actual specific mug? I guess I'm living under a rock but I liked the comic more when it was boldly taking an anti-skub position against an inscrutable trend.

Some right-wing outlet ran a piece this week on how she might "sneak her way" into the race. Or at least that's what the headlines say, I'm not giving them a click.

"hi i'm melinda, i go by she and her"

"SHUT UP YOU'RE LETTING THE ROBOTS WIN"

There's a generous interpretation of the comic in which Horsey is totally fine with Melinda and the people who object to her are the ones ushering in the robot apocalypse.

Ishida's very comfortably settled himself into the pop culture mashup niche where an artist can whip up combinations with zero context like a (spins wheel) [MY LITTLE PONY] wearing a (spins again) [STORMTROOPER HELMET] and [DR WHO SCARF]. Except one or both of his wheels always lands on 4chan.

It's still Biden's fault though because he didn't unilaterally change the holiday to avoid a conflict:

quote:

Charles Moran, president of the Log Cabin Republicans, described the president's Easter post as disrespectful in an exclusive statement to Newsweek on Sunday.

"Time and time again, the Biden-Harris Administration shows that it's utterly tone-deaf when it comes to the priorities of average Americans," Moran said. "Yes - this Administration has been marking March 31st as Transgender Day of Visibility for several years now. And yes, Easter moves around. But I'm awe-struck that nobody in the White House thought that it might be prudent to possibly move the trans proclamation up or back a day, so it didn't directly conflict with the most important holiday in the Christian faith."

He continued: "This entire episode shows extreme disrespect to Christians, or extreme malpractice upon Biden's advisors. Either way, it's a bad look for this Administration, creates unneeded division in America, and shows that LGBT voters should seriously look elsewhere for leadership than the failed Biden-Harris Administration. They're needlessly making it worse, not better, for all of us, with stunts like this."

God this is so vapid. Trend thing bad! You should no like trend thing! What is this even supposed to be about?

I dunno, maybe it's because I'm getting old but I'm getting really tired of people whose output is a constant stream of cynicism.

The metaphor seems pretty clear to me? Not just a generic Latest Fad but tech/automation trends pushing out journalists from their jobs, which seems like a valid thing for a journalist to be cynical about.

I really dislike this guy's style. What's even happening with the lower half of the protestor?

At first I thought it was a gag about those youths wearing baggy jeans (latest fad), but on closer inspection the protester is actually a puppet on the hand of an arm labeled Antisemitism.

That's not fair. There is also the folks on reddit making Prettyfest edits.

I once went looking to see who else was discussing Sinfest online. I found a thread in the Bad Webcomics Wiki forum that started out with "what the hell has been going on with sinfest lately" but by page 2 or 3 the OP had disappeared and it was just two users chuckling back and forth about how much the latest comic had owned the libs.

Ben and Tina got their marching orders I guess. Here's a cartoon and blog snippet from when RFK Jr first entered the race:


quote:

Nearly all democrats are pro-war these days, but not RFK Jr. He’s old school. This is what the Democrat Party needs to survive. It needs to reject insane woke socialism and the servicing of globalist billionaires and instead return to the party to one representing the working man and freedom—especially freedom of speech.
...
Again, RFK Jr. is different. He’s much smarter than his uncle Teddy and he had the focused discipline to pursue scientific scholarship and study vaccines for many years. You’ll notice the media cannot refute his research; they can only smear him. His recent book, “The Real Anthony Fauci” exposed a criminal bureaucrat, but somehow the corporate media still supports Fauci in the face of many damning facts.In addition to warning us about medical tyranny, RFK Jr. is also anti-establishment, anti-war, and anti-corruption.
