I’m I the only one who saw the back of the chair as the person’s hair in the first two panels?

But what’s your straight line distance to the Parthenon?

Spending on missile defense is one of the only parts of the military budget I’m alright with. Heck, why not expand it, intercept every missile targeting civilians regardless of who fired it.

It really depends on what it was used for. I almost always turn bacon grease into gravy or mayo, for oil/butter from cooking meat dishes I make pan sauces, but for frying oil I recycle.

Why waste the oil? Turn it into gravy, or mayonnaise, or store it to sell to a recycling center that will turn it into biofuel.

It’s gotten to the point where incel just means “a guy who believes men and women should be equal”.

No, that’s not even remotely true, and it’s not what your previous comment was saying either.

Incels are essentially misogynists with a sexual fixation. Like classical misogynists tend to be more occupied with women having jobs or holding positions of power, while incels tend to be more upset about women’s sexual habits, but both are preoccupied with hating on women they deem to be misbehaving.

I think the part of your previous comment that gave the most ‘incel vibes’ was the bit about women begging for attention after ‘hitting the wall’ in their 20s. Maybe you intended it as a comment on women who regretted not taking relationships more seriously in their 30s, but it came off as a sort of fantasy where the women who transgressed your model of how ladies should act get their just desserts.

And they compared your idea to toilets in Japan, then you got upset because it wasn’t literally identical to your idea.

They said toilet in every comment. Read better.

He’s the second oldest overall, only Jimmy Carter beats him in age.

He’s the oldest living Republican former president.

I think it’s possible that nation states are inherently unstable. An improvement on monarchy, but still vulnerable to oligarchy.

I’m not sure what the future holds, or what comes next, but I suspect that federation will play an important role.

There’s hunter-gatherer tribes that have been more or less stable for over a thousand years. It’s said that the Nez Perce have lived on the Columbia River for 11,500 years.

People will hate on this, but what other breakfast cereal contains dental X-rays in every crunch?

Fair enough, but the backlash from 8 years was already beyond the pale.

What are you talking about? In 2023, solar power alone generated 1.63 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity. Twice as much as was generated by coal, and more than half as much as was generated by nuclear. Solar plus wind out performed nuclear by hundreds of gigawatts.

The only thing holding back renewable power is grid level energy storage, and that’s evolving rapidly.
