The moment you have to work extra hard, you don't have to work at all.

Transcript

Panel 1

Olivia and Gustopher are at the library. The Library is having a special event for books that have been banned in the past. Dora the librarian is stacking books with titles like "BOOK", "Boogers", "Tales", "Can you", "read this" and "Word". Olivia has a great interest in forbidden knowledge and has been browsing what's available. She's found a book called "Salt Box" and has an important question for the librarian.

Olivia: Miss Librarian! Why was this book banned?

Dora: Vulgar Language.

Panel 2

Dora makes a shocked expression and holds her hands to her face. This is the only way she can express how depraved the book is.

Dora: The word "butt" is used.... FIFTEEN TIMES!

Panel 3

Dora looks down to the children to gather their reaction. Internally, Gustopher is wondering if Dora meant "but" with one "t" or "butt" with two. Olivia immediately assumes it's the latter.

Behind them is a poster promoting banned books week. There is a cartoon book that's smiling and saying "I'm forbidden!" He's booky the banned book. He was specifically banned for being made using the darkest of magic. He's also kind of rude.

Panel 4

Olivia is excited about the book. This leads Gustopher to assume that "butt" was indeed spelled with an extra "t".

Olivia: Now I have to read it.

Dora: Oh noooo... I'll help you check it out.

Kim Seong Min risked everything to escape from North Korea The activist, poet and broadcaster died on September 12th, aged 63

North Koreans are repeatedly told they live in heaven on earth. For one hour twice a day, 365 days a year, Kim Seong Min told them that, on the contrary, they were slaves to a dictator.

We remember the life of the exiled broadcaster

Panel 1: "Grappler Type Relationship". It's a man in a suit with their hands up in a powerful stance. He has a bouquet of flowers in his left hand, and his right hand is open. He has sunk into the wedding altar he's in in this stance, sending some chunks of it into the air. Sliding into him is a woman in a wedding dress, but she is equally yolked, and honestly coming at him like a bullet train.

Panel 2: "Zoner Type Relationship". It's a girl in pink and purple, and a guy in green in blue. They are standing far away from each other along a sidewalk, giggling and blushing while looking away, and throwing gifts at each other. Flowers, candy, a teddy bear, a wrapped gift, and ice cream are flying through the air. A man with a dog stands in the background, looking.
