Tango

You know, it never occurred to me that most pornos depict an inherently friendly world. Everybody wants to introduce themselves to their new neighbors, everybody tips the pizza guy, everybody’s willing to cut poor people a break by accepting alternative forms of payment, different races get along famously, teachers are able to dedicate time to one-on-one tutoring, blended families are very accepting of each other, etc.

When the part of your brain that feels guilty for wanting to stay in starts nagging at you, then metaphorically speaking, whose voice does it speak in? By which I mean, who do you think instilled that sense of guilt in you? For me it’s my mother.

One of the ways you can tell the artist is human is because the character’s poses get reused with new faces drawn on. That’s a hallmark of classic human laziness. An AI is unlikely to render two images the exact same way unless specifically told to.

I’ve found that in some cases it’s the opposite. Sometimes, if somebody makes a joke like “I suck, hahaha”, you need to take it more extreme, like “who told you??? hahaha”. Depending on a bunch of factors, sometimes if you respond to an “I suck, hahaha” with “no you don’t, you shouldn’t think that”, they’re gonna start wondering why you couldn’t tell they were joking and start worrying that maybe they actually do suck.

There were Gilligan’s Island remakes?

O Wise Owl, if the habits of a lifetime make it difficult to keep to such resolutions, how can I give myself every advantage to be better able to keep to them?

That’s explicitly what the song is about. Ditching work in the middle of the workday because fuck 'em, and proceeding to get shitfaced.

I can’t really say this comic is funny if it’s just repeating the exact meaning of the song at face value.

So it appears to be a 1:1 straight remake, but with modern graphics, better sound and probably some improvements to the UI.

I’ll be honest though; I preferred how all the characters looked in the 3DS remaster. Oh well; I don’t have a Switch 2 anyway, so it’s not like I was gonna get this either way.

Russians also describe 1990s Russia as an economic wasteland where all of Russia’s wealth and resources were gathered up by oligarchs. So yeah, pretty apt analogy.

That reference is a little too “inside baseball” for me, but based on the context, I assume those were companies that operated in the so-called Third Reich?

Really? I was under the impression that Trump had made it a law or something. If not, then what did that executive order actually do?

Prostitution

I hate to be all “fragile masculinity”, but this comic seems to imply that men are somehow profiting from the situation and I really don’t think we are. Probably not what the artist intended to imply, but I figured I’d mention how it comes across.

“What is a vague and carefully unfalsifiable way to slander an entire continent?”, Alex.

I think a lot of politicians are pleasantly surprised that there was still an American that both sides of the aisle could agree on admiring.

I’d be more worried about Joe Pesci.

I dreamed I saw Dolly Parton last night

Alive as you and me

Says I, “But Dolly, you’re 24 hrs dead”

“I never died” says she

“I never died” says she
