Chris Cuomo is trying to make this atrocious little mustache happen even though it looks like he drew it on with a ballpoint pen

I haven't posted an update for while, but I'm actually very close to the finish line of my musical murder mystery game Murder at the Birch Tree Theater! I just finished plugging in all the clues into the final level, which is more than twice the size of any previous level.

OMG. I was wondering that as the tariff numbers made no sense, but this is even dumber than I thought. I mean, this is "fail your econ 101 class and have to go meet with the professor" bad.
hmmvryintrstng.bsky.social hi, no thanks @hmmvryintrstng.bsky.social · Apr 2
james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country

"...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."
Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us. So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

I’m sure watching the ball drop is nice, but I beat Final Fantasy VII Rebirth at 12:01 and it’s probably the most satisfying New Year’s Eve I’ve ever had

today’s comic is inspired by a price tag i saw in a clothing store several months ago. when i was drawing this i looked for reference for the price difference in clothes, and found NOTHING. i started panicking, so i switched to books. same problem. i tore up my bookshelf looking for US vs. UK prices

Read the comic on Comics Kingdom:

Rae the Doe is holding a copy of the book “Sand” (a very clear parody of Dune), which has a cover depicting a giant worm, a desert, and two moons. RAE: Oh! I wanted to get this book! Let’s see how much it costs… Close-up on the book’s barcode. The US price is 22.99 and the UK price i’d 18.99. Rae approaches the bookshop’s cashier. Her book is on the counter. RAE: ‘Ello, gov’nor!

BTS: the 9/12/19 orchestral overdub session of my favorite Sack Lunch Bunch song, the Nyro/Bacharach homage “I Saw a White Lady Standing on the Street Just Sobbing”. @mikepettry.bsky.social’s beautiful arrangement soars all on its own.
