I feel seen. On the couch, watching my roomba drive around.

idea for next election here in CA: Add a "Prop 51: Demand DC Release the Epstine Files". Would be nice to get CA voters strongly on record on that subject.

Teen Vogue now tried as an adult.

My coworker was in a bad accident years back. The police and fire dept were so concerned with her injuries they called a helicopter to xport her to a hospital. Insurance refused to pay, so she got a $25k bill for the xport.

The seeds planted, and in the people’s minds the grapes of wrath will grow.

Talked to my kid about the SNAP situation and how there might be hungry kids at her school, etc and her first question was “but why would the government do that?”

GREAT QUESTION!!!

I tried to explain that one side wont sign the bill bc the other is trying to raise healthcare by $1000s per month

Don't worry, we'll get it right next time with the next big innovation. Like AI ... wait

In my house we repurposed his name. Exempt: “After coffee this morning I took a giant Trump.” If impossible to be forgotten, may it be such-ly repurposed.

I might run on this same promise.

I learned this in the most recent superman movie. Even Clark Kent can't get out of this rule.

Comic. Two-column table. Column A lists planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Column B has checkmark boxes for whether the planets have rings: the outer planets’ boxes are checked, and Earth has a red check. [Earth with a ring with an array pf points around it. An arrow labeled “Geostationary Satellite Bel”t points to the ring.] [caption] Astronomy fact: A century ago, Earth didn’t have rings, but we have one now!

I’ve been looking at lots in the deepest darkest parts of Nevada - dreaming of having a place i can drive to in a day to go milky way gazing.

Didn’t know you had a Patreon. (I live under a rock). Always love your comics. I signed up at worm level. :)

Similar: those that can’t do simple math get by with a calculator, those who can’t spell get by with spellcheck, and those that can’t think will ‘get by’ with AI as a crutch. But do u want to hire these folks to do your rocket math, write your speeches, or plan strategies for your company?

Even the animals aren’t safe….

Oh, sorry, it’s a term from my industry (tech). It means “Read The Fxxx Manual”. I doubt these guys read the manual. Or … can read.

These are the last people in the world who would ever RTFM.

Thoughts on this drawing of a historical pregnant woman, Mr Speaker?

This is me. And I love that moment when the attendant asks me to lower my window shade so others can sleep. They get the side eye, and I turn back to the window. Those Greenland glaciers aren't gonna watch themselves!!
