This week’s main story is about Twitter. Or β€œX” if you’re a hall monitor. How it went from bad to worse under Elon Musk, how it’s impacting us all, and why there’s exactly one account there that we’re still fine with.

I bet there's a lot of weird stuff in the Girl Scout Cookie graveyard. My favorite was the Rah Rah Raisins but they came in such a small box compared to the other cookies

This week marks the 41st anniversary of CHERRY COKE, a brand responsible for more incredible designs than any other product I can think of. Here’s some of their finest work: 1985, 1990, 1992 and 1996. Which was your favorite?

We’re back! And a lot has happened since we’ve been away. This week’s main story concerns unrest in Minnesota, murders committed by ICE and CBP agents, and the massive entity overseeing it all: the Department of Homeland Security. Plus, some stuff about Business Shrek – sorry, β€œTom Homan.”

4-panel comic. (1) [Person 1 unrolls carpet outdoors while Person 2 with short hair pulls cart full of more rolls.] (2) [Continuing uphill.] (3) [After going over a bump that takes them downhill, both people catch carpet roll that’s falling off the cart.] (4) PERSON 2: You’re *sure* we started installing the wall-to-wall carpet on the right side of the wall? PERSON 1: The other end of the room *must* be getting close by now.

it drives you insane how much erosion of freedom is justified by concern for kids when the people who actually hurt them will never face consequences

The image is a six panel black and white comic. 

Panel 1- A therapist sits on a chair, legs crossed. "We're going to try something for your anxiety today. I want you to imagine some place that would bring you a sense of peace."

Panel 2- The person sitting across from them on the couch repeats back, "Some place that brings me peace?"

Panel 3- They put their hand on their chin and then think, "Some place that brings me peace..." 

Panel 4- Eyes now closed, their thoughts fade out "Some place that brings me-"

Panel 5- The person is now laying on what looks like freshly cut grass.

Panel 6- It zooms out to reveal them laying in the old Windows xp default wallpaper, a green field with blue sky and clouds, a picture refereed to as 'Bliss'

Boo: Squeek
Largo: Where we gonna hang that batwing dude?
Piro: Down low in back.
Asmodeus: Hey!!
