Hey it was the ‘80s. Cars didn’t hit a hundred bucks till the ‘90s I think.

I was thinking the same thing. It’s the window frame I think, it’s like strip inside the strip.

Actually I’m not sure. Usually a beat panel is the second to last with no action in it at all. But in this one both middle panels have an action (the car going by and then Calvin & Hobbs running) but the framing with action outside the window isolates us just the right amount to still feel like a beat is being taken between the action of the car disaster and moms realisation.
I imagine if I was drawing this I’d have had the car and Calvin both go by in the second panel and the third just being mom thinking. But Watterson such a great artist he can create that feeling of a moment of stillness without it really being there.

This is one of my favourite C&H strip. The beat panel just kills me.

Cheetah’s went through a genetic bottleneck somewhere between ten and twelve thousand years ago. There may have been less than ten left at one point. Dating the Cheetah Genetic Bottleneck
My totally silly theory is that humans in fact where adopting kits at that time and help saved the species, and that’s why they’re so almost domesticated.

Eh, he’s an Indian-American I’d still take odds he out in the next fortnight. Kegsbreath is doing all the same stuff but as a white male I recon his job is safe until after November.

So he’s having Grok write his sermons now too.

“Underground construction, including of bunkers, bomb shelters, military installations or medical facilities, may proceed.” - emphasis mine
I find the medical facilities part very interesting. It sounds to me like they’re building a Dave style single room hospital under there. A place outside of the very public Reed National where the president can receive serious medical treatments. With Trump in the hospital so often I suspect that this whole thing has been a cover so that Trump won’t look weak going to see his doctor

I think you might be right. I say we blame Seinfeld for Trump, it was the start of making assholes the star on TV.

The quote “Right now, there are 13-year-old kids about to invade Kamchatka in their first-ever game of Risk that look like Carl von Clausewitz compared to Trump.” just about covers the level of strategic planning but I don’t understand how tactical planning is also so poor. I’m guessing Pete’s purges have shredded the upper ranks of everyone who’s not a sycophant.

If like Expedition with Steve Backshall you’ve got check his other works on the BBC. He did several series of Deadly 60 for kids and several Land of the … specials where he travels to other exotic locations. I saw him live talking about his travels and he took questions from kids in the audience and he’s quite charismatic and charming.

The golden age of video games was between when I was 13 and 21 years old. I was old enough to make spare cash to buy my own games and young enough to have spare time and energy to play them. Also my fast twitch reflexes were still good then so I could easily do a platformer or FPS. And this is true for everyone no matter when they were born.

Honestly “regular conservative people” are too embarrassed by the racist morons to be conservatives anymore. If you still identify with the conservative movement today you are a racist moron.

Typical Boomer Doomerism. It’s all hopeless and we should all give up and die eh?

Oh hey now don’t go being reasonable. Didn’t you get the memo? We’re all just supposed to throw up our hands and say nothing is going to happen and then just sit here being angry but not active. /s

This is actually an interesting question that depends a lot on a human perspective and what you define as ‘Generally Blue’ and what’s else is in the container.
I personally would define generally blue as when you have two colours, say red and blue M&Ms, and you reach in the container to pull out 3 you have a 50/50 chance of pulling out three blues. This definition would require that you have 79.58% blue M&Ms in your container.
Honestly this sounds like a bit high to me but probably can be a real bitch, and the test sounds secure to me. Physiological I think 2/3 blue 1/3 red would have most people say it’s generally blue and the ratio would go down as you add other colours. I think 1/2 blue and 1/2 a mix of 4 or more colours people would still say it’s generally blue.

And what happens when you’ve traveled back in time and smoke your weed before you get so stoned and ask this question? 😂

Here’s the thing, I just don’t trust anything that comes from the FBI and honestly I doubt that most Americans do either. DJT has blown up the FBI’s trust and it’s impossible to not think that Keystone wouldn’t say anything to get his boss out of trouble.
