I think, in the end, that the various Reasons people give for why it's good and fine that they are very aggro on this here internet and actually this is upholding the true and the good and the beautiful are always a bit less persuasive than: no you're not, you're just being weirdly mean, stop it.

If you’re a cartoonist and feel like you don’t know how to make a short comic interesting read three adult Osamu Tezuka manga and realize that you can do any insane plot twist in your comic without explaining the Lore first as long as it’s fun to read

Love a Wikipedia entry with comic timing
Thus, he was freed from death row, after less than three years in early October
1955. Taborsky appeared appropriately humble, stating, "You can't beat the law.
From now on, l'm not even going to get a parking ticket."

Comics have somehow ducked unionization for 100 years. This is more publishing house than artist related, but its a huge step in the right direction.

A Star Trek TNG title card. It Reads: So if I'm understanding this right. Dr. Soong built like 12 Datas that all look like him but only the last couple actually work sort of? And the last thing he did before dying was to perfect androids by making an immortal android body for his wife's brain...memories...something??? And while all this is going on he has a fucking SON who looks like him?

Higher-level writing programs should include a botany/plant identification class, being unable to describe the natural world in language places limits on one's visual imagination in ways we only dimly realize

Leaving aside the use of AI slop to make a point that could have **easily** been made with five minutes of drawing (a big thing to leave aside), AI takes away your control. Here Snoopy has a look on his face like he's about to disagree. Was that intended? Bc that's what this cartoon is telling us

I hated it for so long theb someone said to skip ahead to season 4 before watching 2 and 3. Season 4 is among my favorite Star Trek seasons. Its both goofier and more realistic, and it plays to Bakula’s strength playing a dude who is only dimly aware that he is out of his depths.

As a death penalty abolitionist, "Trump bringing back the firing squad" seems like a pretty big strategic win for our side. Feels brutal, barbaric and cruel to normies despite being significantly less cruel than lethal injection as practiced in the USA is.

Some drawings related to the cartoon below: last panel/sketchbook doodles/original art.
A panel from the cartoon quoted belowSmall sketchbook doodles in black ink showing a small child, cloaked figures, an isolated house and a forest.A strip cartoon drawn in black ink.

Two hooded figures with lamps approach a moonlit, isolated cottage.
A woman answers the door.
We have come for the child, says the hooded figure
So soon? she asks
It is time, says the hooded figure.
The woman is distraught. We should never have got him a library card!
What is done cannot be undone, says the hooded figure
We couldn’t see the harm! We just wanted him to enjoy reading! 
For most, it ends there, says the hooded figure, turning away and walking into the wilderness
Oh lord, What have I done! says the woman,
the child walks past her and out into the darkness with them.
Do not cry mother. 
I am a writer now.

I believe the current trend of mixing various candies in popcorn is leading theatre patrons to dig deeper and more aggressively into their bags for perfect candy/popcorn ratio fistfuls and is thus creating bag ruffling volumes higher than previously known to theatrical experience
