This is one of the most chilling movies I’ve ever seen, and it’s basically just bureaucrats sitting around a table discussing policy. Is it still available on whatever streaming service HBO turned into, or did they axe it too?

We’re restarting three mile island for this?

Love the original, but I really don’t think it needs a reboot. But I guess original ideas are too much to ask for in 2024…

I’ve never had any issues with it, but I haven’t brewed anything this year due to lack of free time, so maybe/hopefully just a bad batch from SafAle?

Whoa, I need to find some hi-res versions of these to print out and hang on my wall!

Where’s Mrs True when you need her?

They were all off their rocker on wizard oil

I’ve heard nannyberries are tasty, but I’ve only ever seen them unripe in the summer. Maybe some day…

Man, just look at that facial expression. That’s a man in deep emotional pain.

Love her blog, one of the few places that actually bothers to dive into the details of the lower profile races.

Hey, wait, are these the same triplets he dove out of a window over in a previous comic? Didn’t realize there was continuity between these strips.

Did people really wear bandages around their necks for a sore throat back in the day, or is that just a comic strip way of visually conveying that info?

Also, damn, he knocked that guy right out of his suspenders.

That would be considered “vintage”. Antique today would indeed be from Everett’s time.

Better than a cat-less man-child.

I actually switched to Ubuntu full-time way back in 2006 when I went back to school (anthro major), specifically to help me focus when using my computer and not get distracted by playing video games. Of course, nowadays with wine and proton on steam, that might not be as effective. But it worked well for me, never experienced any issues with word docs opening in libre office (or rather open office back then) or vice versa. There was once or twice where I had to use a computer in the lab in the library to run some niche program or another for an assignment, but not a big deal.

I Iove that Lemmy is into a 100+ year old comic. What I’m curious about, is this a uniquely Lemmy phenomenon, or is this comic making the rounds on other corners of the Internet right now too?

It’s funnier that way.

we’ve been weakening in that regard over the last decade

That’s the thing, we really haven’t. 2016 got a lot of press because Trump lost by the narrowest margin since Bush vs Gore, but if you look at the actual vote totals, Trump didn’t do any better than the last 4 Republicans, slightly worse than Romney and Bush in 2004, in fact. The only reason it was as close as it was was due to the terrible turnout by Dems for Hillary in 2016. 2020 results were back in line with the norm, with Biden winning by 7+ points. So don’t believe the media’s click bait hype, Minnesota is not and never was in play. (Of course, that doesn’t mean we don’t need to vote, and don’t forget the down ballot races, which are arguably more important. And have you all voted in your primary yet? Early voting is open, election day is August 13th)

Better than Strange Brew?

god was just trying to get Judean citizenship this whole time, and we accidentally made a religion out of it. Whoopsie doodle.
