Posted by: Zombie Robbo the Llama Butcher at September 15, 2020 09:39 AM When I was in college, I used to swim laps in the deep end of the school's Olympic-sized indoor pool. One day, I forgot to take out my (hard) contacts before I jumped in to swim. After completing my laps, I got out and realized they were gone. A friend of mine got in the pool to help me look for them. I gave up and was already back in my dorm room when I got a knock on my door. After looking for about a half hour, my friend had actually found one of them down near the drain!

I like it!
O/T but art related: According to an early review for the book, titled Troubled Blood, the storyline centers around a cisgender male serial killer who dresses up like a woman to murder his female victims. Activists, reviewers and people in the transgender community are pointing out that the book has an anti-trans plotline that could be harmful to the community. Holy smokes, she it totally calling their bluff. Sounds like she is using her fiction to demonstrate how trans activist demands re: allowing men in women-only spaces can be abused by men pretending to be women. Nice.

While that's the Far Side I think of in terms of the punchline most frequently, there's another multipanel cartoon of an alien trying to teach a pet tricks and the pet struggling to do the last one. The frsutrated alien owner yells, "Kakaphooney! PHOONEY!" at the little pet and it gets it right. There's something very universal about that one.

Calvin and Hobbes was always good, but it really became art after the Sunday format changed. Instead of two rows of framed cells, the format expanded to break out of the edges. Watterson could use the entire space to showcase his formidable artistic talent and create a deeper strip. I really liked how he made Calvin's imagination scenes more realistic than his "reality".

Late to the thread, dammit!
Larson painted a lot of riverscapes with powerful, stormy waters and endangered ships. This one is restful, almost serene. The various shades of blue, none overly harsh, are relaxing. The viewer can almost hear the creak of the ropes and soft sounds of water against the hulls and shore. The line of lights in the water shows just how calm the area is. It is very effective. Thanks, CBD. What an enjoyable, pleasant scene to start the day. Posted by: JTB at September 15, 2020 10:13 AM (7EjX1) 230

At one point, he had gotten all of his teeth removed (had damage from a years-earlier car accident) and despite the evident pain and no teeth, he still read me the comics.

Take 1000 20 somethings, confine them to their dorm rooms and limited excursions within a 25 mile radius for 6 months over the summer and be shocked when there are incidents. Then make everybody get counseling.
Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at September 15, 2020 10:16 AM (dNzKv) Heh. Glad I'm retired. I was always pissed when on a post of 20,000 troops, one gets in an accident while on leave a thousand miles away and the CG decided every vehicle must be safety inspected before any future leaves and every holiday. By the Company Commander no less. Each inspection was about 10 minutes plus driving to and from. Do the math. How many wasted hours? Gawd.

'I need help': Pennsylvania mayor makes desperate plea after fatal police shooting of Ricardo Munoz in Lancaster
"I need help. We need help,"Soracesaid, calling on leaders across Pennsylvania to help forge a solution to shootings involving police officers."I am clear beyond a doubt that we lack the tools, the resources, the expertise andthe capacity to do this on our own here in the City of Lancaster." Sorace was blunt when a reporter asked if she expected more violent protests tonight. "You're asking that question that quite honestly makes me want to throw up. It is my fervent hope that there will be no more violent protests tonight," shesaid. How stupid do you have to be to vote for someone this fcking worthless?

The other strip they tried to cancel once was Mark Trail. And that set off a huge negative backlash as well. Not nearly as much as Peanuts, but enough that they kept that strip in too.

The FEC should be given an EO stating that all mail in votes must be postmarked at least five days before Election Day, and that none received after will count.
The entire push for mail-in voting is an excuse to keep counting indefinitely, so that bags of ballots with no chain of custody will magically keep turning up until they win. They're been doing this in Phoenix, Atlanta, and South FL (Broward) for years. DeSantis only managed his narrow victory by sending in poll watchers to shut down the shenanigans.

The problem with lefty "entertainers/content makers" is they can't see anything funny about the people on their side. You could easily had some fun with Barky's vanity or lack of sportzball skills, or the whole umbrella thing or the 5lb half lunges.... but nope it's all "Yeah Barky ain't he the awesome at everything?"
And then the corollary of that is that their "humor" devolves into bashing strawmen of the people they disagree with. Not even funny just bashing them as stupid and mean and stupid.

According to an early review for the book, titled Troubled Blood, the storyline centers around a cisgender male serial killer who dresses up like a woman to murder his female victims.

I have it - they had it at a very reasonable price at Costco a few years ago, so I bought it for Christmas. One collection worth getting is 'History of the Far Side', because it shows some of his cartoons in their developmental stage. There are also some flubs, where a cartoon was printed with the wrong caption. And sometimes Larson himself just has reflections on his cartoons, years after he drew them. One I like is a group of surgeons, seen from the back.

They know the system is rigged, and not enough people are paying attention, or they don't care if these people do even the BASIC requirements of their jobs.

271 For Better or for Worse.
The whole damn lot of them always were insufferable other than poor, neglected April, then Lynn Johnson got all SJW, then the strip wrapped up with the worst finale in the history of things when Elizabeth the Golden Vagina home-wrecked Blandthony's marriage in order to marry him herself and everyone in the strip acted like this was The Best Thing Ever, while readers reacted in horror and disgust. Ugh, that strip got bad toward the end! It also coincided with Johnson's husband leaving her to run off with his longtime secretary. I think he just couldn't face the prospect of life with her once she retired and was home full time. There was just one bright spot in that final year: Grandpa was sinking into dementia and eventually died, but for a few days he was reliving his WWII experiences, and the strips were pretty well-done scenes of combat, all in a sepia tone. That was nice. We got to see him as a vital young man doing heroic things, not just an elderly husk lying in bed.

The Office of the Inspector General that independently oversees the Justice Department is examining the sentencing recommendation for GOP operative Roger Stone, a DOJ source confirmed to Fox News. The inspector general's investigation, which was first reported by NBC News, comes after Assistant U.S. Attorney Aaron Zelinsky testified before Congress in June that a DOJ decision to recommend a lighter sentence than originally suggested was politically motivated. Zelinsky, a member of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team, resigned from the Stone case after being overruled by DOJ superiors.

My own recollection of Jill Stein's partial recount in MI in 2016 differs from the conventional wisdom here, i.e., that Stein's partial recount uncovered massive fraud/discrepancies.
I checked my recollection online briefly, just now. Stein turned up a net new +135 votes for HRC in MI. Trump's campaign successfully sued to shut Stein's MI recount down. Stein's recount did show that some Detroit precincts hadn't maintained their paper ballots properly, so no recount was possible in those precincts, but that seems to me like garden variety inner city incompetence. Recounts in other states in 2016, such as NV, turned up absolutely nothing of significance. About 9 extra votes for HRC & 6 more for Trump. If I'm wrong about what Stein's recount uncovered, please correct me. Posted by: mnw at September 15, 2020 10:50 AM (Cssks) 478

I expect Trump and his campaign team remember it. His campaign is 100% more staffed and organized than it was in 2016.
He only had one part time staff in Minnesota in 2016, he has an entire team in that State this time around. Had a pair of PDT campaign workers knock on the door of stately Casa Backwardio last week. Had a nice conversation with the two ladies whom I figured were Mom and Granddaughter. That didn't happen back in '016. I'm cautiously optimistic that this will be a greater win for the Golden Scalp Weasel (said with love, sir, just in case you're lurking here) this time.

And that's another thing, I'm just a caveman, your laws are strange and scary to me, but how is it Little Mike Doomberg can pledge $100 million to try to get Biden to win Florida?
How is that legal? How was Dinesh D'Souza convicted of a felony for donating to somebody, when Doomberg can basically try to buy an election? Shouldn't we be skinning that little pissant alive?

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at September 15, 2020 10:54 AM (WkPC9) Exactly. When it's "brave," it's weaselly. When it "confronts," "grapples with," and "takes on," it is a timid recap of all totalitarian slogans. When it is "new," "progressive," and "forward-looking," it is the same tired she that is the only thing anyone has been allowed to discuss for 3 generations. Boring.

On Sunday's Meet The Press, moderator Chuck Todd said that Trump doesn't "have shame" when the press call out his misstatements.
On the show, guest Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of the Atlantic, rued how the media have not figured out how to counter Trump's supposed deliberate policy of misstatements. Todd then said: "The only way to understand this is to realize he doesn't have shame about it. And when we lose our ability to shame a politician, we lose a lot of our power. That's for sure." Posted by: SMOD at September 15, 2020 10:54 AM (3aI0K) I think I see the problem here. You people should be ashamed of YOURSELVES. If your nonsense isn't causing the politician to be ashamed, maybe there's nothing to be ashamed about.

Posted by: Insomniac - Ex Cineribus Resurgo at September 15, 2020 10:57 AM (NWiLs) It sounds like a one liner, but it is exactly true. The entire issue of campaign finance issue is intentionally corrupt that it beggars description. The only way to even roughly understand it is to accept that current Campaign Finance Law is set up to make it very illegal for an average person with no special knowledge to try and run a campaign against the status quo. However, if you have enough money to hire a host of campaign specialist lawyers and money managers, who will daisy chain your contributions through a series of 501c4 organizations and the like, then it becomes ridiculously easy for a wealthy person, or organization, to give as much money as they like to anyone. The law is intentionally written this way. Posted by: Tom Servo at September 15, 2020 11:03 AM (Kpl3J) 542

No, no paywall. You have to click the Comments bar thing though; and I guess they have a 'subscribe to reason' popup that you can just X close to remove. BTW, the great Libertarians got rid of no-hassle open commenting to go to a registration system instead due to spam but the spam is worse now than before and they never remove it, ever, as can be seen in those two links.

D'Souza essentially proved after the fact that his prosecution was a political vendetta. No one cared. If this had happened to a leftist activist it would be conclusive, actionable proof of "fascist" republicans and there would still be MSM features about it.
