4-panel SMBC comic update. A man and his young son are standing on a hill at night beneath the stars. The son asks what's the key to a happy life, to which the father responds "achieving your dreams." He explains "so, while you're still young, still ahead of all your crossroads...

This is so deeply unserious. Even setting aside the hitherto-undreamt-of levels of fecklessness, the destruction of freedom of speech and of the press isn't even coming from Congress! It's absolution of Trump dressed up as condemnation!

Do you want the Eugenics Wars? Because this is how you get the Eugenics Wars

Videos of the property of these white collar criminals being confiscated and arrest videos of the men who victimized the women in the Epstein files would provide ideal social media content for a future Democratic administration...the flip side to the sadistic ICE sizzle reels produced by this one.

Baking set to opera. Found this weirdly satisfying.

I already know that time's inexorable advance is grinding me to dust, I really don't need the constant reminders

Epstein’s reply: “I know both well.”
