"And why are they so smart and attractive?"
Clickbait headline reading, "Why Do So Many Millennials Look and Seem So Much Younger Than They Are?" accompanied by a photo of a brown-haired woman facing away from the camera, presumably because she's too young to know which way to face

New Petunia! Your Party Is In Another Mountain. #comics #webcomic
petuniacomics.com/your-party-i...
Sir Kyle informs Reggie that Petunia and a puzzleheaded boy entered the dragon's cave but never came out. Reggie is happy that the dragon will be fed and sleepy. Kyle asks if it was a smart idea to put even more commonfolk in harm's way and Reggie corrects him that these are not commoners but CHAMPIONS who VOLUNTEERED to fight the dragon. It's all kosher and by the book!

This is why everyone needed to be a 13-year-old boy when Basic Instinct came out. Taught me a lot about ice!

I won’t say I have the best understanding of the difference between “leftist/progressive/liberal” but it’s funny to me to see people across the spectrum apply whichever label they think is most offensive in the given context. Will Stancil in particular I have seen referred to as all three!
A Jonathan Chait post starting thusly “has anybody seen any self-reflection from the leftists like Stancil who ignored…”

I fell down a Shel Silverstein hole awhile back and wound up creating an account on academia.edu to access an article about him and now I get all of these emails asking if I am a different Georg Pedersen who is researching cool stuff like magnetic correlations in optical lattices
A life not lived: another Georg Pedersen who wrote a paper titled: “Inducing spin-dependent tunneling to probe magnetic correlations in optical lattices”

What's your #comicsdna? The comics and books that were formative to you.
Cover of Son of Ambush Bug #1. Cheeks 4eva Cover of Wasteland #4, a very cool and weird horror anthology that also features lots of crazy autobiographical stories from Del Close Bill Sienkiewicz-era New Mutants! Still the coolest a comic has looked Cover of Batman Dark Knight Triumphant. Kinda scared to go back this mini-series and see how reactionary it is, but cool as hell when I was eleven

I am devastated to learn that a pot of pour over a day is too much for my delicate tum-tum. Definitely the worst thing that will happen in 2025.
PANEL 1: A mysterious and attractive man who is definitely not feeling the effects of middle age grabs his tummy while standing next to a a freshly made bottle of pour over coffee. “AH! MY STOMACH HAS REALLY BEEN BUGGING ME LATELY”. PANEL 2: A close up of the delicious coffee, beckoning. The man thinks:” Pretty much since I started making pour over and drinking MORE COFFEE.” PANEL 3: The resolute man pounds his fist into his open palm. He declares, “I should stop drinking it so much!” PANEL 4: The man sips at a mug of delicious delicious pour over and walks away. “Starting tomorrow,” he decides. Because what harm can one more do?

Quote posting a page from an unfinished comic about dogs (more or less). Hoping to finish it in the new year!
A let’s say creatively cropped section of a comic page from Housebreaking. In the top panel a group of dogs and their owners patiently listen to a woman say, “I know it’s tough out there but we have to stick together.” Next panels show a pair if hands grasping a dog collar and then a woman with a bruised and bandaged face. “We’ve all made sacrifices. It’s time we escalate things.”
