I hate “George Lucasing” on principle, but I’ve caved a few times and tweaked dialogue to reflect later changes — mostly character names. And I later rewrote one punchline because the original was too date-specific.
Now there’s one strip I’m considering rewriting completely, for multiple reasons. 😑

Thread:

The reaction by some to Mamdani’s 10/7 statement is a cold reminder that for too many, advocacy for Palestinian rights has always been a flimsy fig leaf for anti-Jewish hatred.
For this ilk, even the most cursory acknowledgement of Israeli grief is “softening on the genocide”.

Check out this bozo.

There’s something awe-inspiring about developmentally stunted meatheads who throw spitballs at people above their paygrade, like guffawing third-grade bullyboys mocking kids who read.

It’s incredible that stuff like this is written by an adult.

An artifact from what was a more hopeful moment, but also the starting point of the most immediate pathway — the Tea Party — to the horror we‘re facing now.
For both reasons these make me sad.

LOOK at this ludicrous little twat. I have secondhand embarrassment that he even exists.

Jokes aside, I love this version of Gina. I had her in mind for this mademoiselle’s color scheme.
