Letting Dave Whamond lead off, despite a couple of hesitations. One is about the connection between the shooting and football, but my main quibble is with “How could this happen?” because, come on, who’s surprised anymore? Which is his point, so he should have reworked it. He does make up for it with the looks […]
I don’t know if today’s Non Sequitur (AMS) counts as “fortuitous” timing, since nobody in Vermont or the lower Hudson Valley is calling much of anything “lucky” at the moment, but there’s certainly a load of synchronicity in it, since I’m sure Wiley did the strip some time ago but today a lot of people […]
I’m really sorry the Dominion/Fox trial isn’t being televised. As Ed Hall says, it’s going to be a slam-dunk for Dominion to prove that Fox intentionally, knowingly lied about them, and it would be good to have it all out in the open for everyone to see. But, then again, let’s not forget the OJ […]
I agree with Adam Zyglis that Second Amendment zealots are killing the “living document” of the Constitution. I just wish they were the only ones involved in the crime. As noted here before, the discussion of guns is not about guns but about politics, in which guns have become a measure of loyalty to competing […]
It was a bit of a coin flip, deciding whether to start the day with Jen Sorensen or T.S. Eliot, and they don’t really qualify as a Juxtaposition because they’re nearly the same. Sorensen wins because this is a cartoon feature and not a poetry corner, but we’ll add the rest of Tom’s commentary at […]
Non Sequitur (AMS) addresses the crucial question of life on Earth being obliterated by a meteor, the odds of which, I would note, have not changed simply because we are better at tracking space objects. Though they may become slightly lower, since we’re working on ways of dealing with it. Not that we haven’t been […]
I can counter-quote Mr. Boffo: You coulda had class. You coulda been a political commentator. You coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what you are, let’s face it. Being a grown up ruins everything. Juxtaposition of the Day (The Argyle Sweater – AMS) (Too Much Coffee Man – AMS) F’rinstance, I’ll admit […]
That cargo ship wedged in the Suez Canal may be a disaster for international trade, but it’s been a boon for political cartoonists. Don Landgren isn’t the only one who has used it to comment on Republican efforts to stop voters from voting. The blockage of the Canal only impacts about 10 percent of […]
In the fury of reactions to last night’s outrage, Pia Guerra responds with such quiet eloquence that there’s a temptation to simply run her piece and call it a day. Here we are, and the pickup truck behind her might be that of the murderer, judging from what we see on the bumper and what […]
