  • Every dollar printed affects the value of every dollar already in circulation. Where that money goes changes who feels it. Printing money to blow up and then subsequently rebuild infrastructure in Iran is going to hurt basically all Americans, although some people (guess who) are probably going to see their share of the pie grow even more because their assets are not held in USD.

    It’s all so goddamn stupid. If I allow myself to turn to illiberal thoughts I begin to feel like perhaps anyone who supported this clown should have their voting rights permanently stripped. He’s the worst president in maybe 150 years. I guess Trump supporters should be thankful the rest of us are so goddamned liberal.



  • It works well, until it doesn’t. That first part lulls people into complacency. I rented a Kia last year that had automatic cruise control and lane keep assist and it kept me on the road far past when I should have pulled over and taken a nap from being sleep deprived after a redeye flight. Dangerous? Yes. Skill issue? Maybe. What I took away from the experience is that it is frighteningly easy to get used to a thing “just working” and forget about its limitations when it is convenient. I also learned that I do not want lane keep assist or automatic cruise control in my personal car.















  • Eh, it’s a distinctive style. If you workshop it and you like the result, great. If you don’t, thats fine too. They’re funny and now that I know what to expect I can read the nose for what it is. I happen to like your comics quite a bit even if I have been wondering why your characters are so smug and/or content all the time. I thought it was part of the humor ;-)

    For me I think part of the problem is my brain fails to notice the nose in panels that have mouths, and therefore I expect to see a mouth but not a nose in panels woth no mouths. Idk if that helps or even makes sense
