  • I mean, it’s a different kind of lovable. Capivaras have that “I know what you did and I’m not happy with you but I’m not going to make a scene right now but just you wait until we get home mister” look. Which is endearingly sweet when you’re not the direct recipient, and even if you are, you know it comes from a place of love.



  • And just who are you to presume to correct anybody’s point of view? Because telling me that commies and fascists like to send people to gulags is doing nothing to change anybody’s mind. Let’s face reality here: that doesn’t hit anywhere close to home, especially when you have so much right-wing media spinning it around and justifying it.

    The issues that actually hurt most people, your working class and poor people, are toxic to democrats because they need policies that will hurt their traditional pocket fillers.

    They all chose, a long time ago, to serve their masters, and it’s now coming to the breaking point: people can no longer afford to pay rent and basic necessities with their job.

    This is when all hell breaks loose, the social contract breaks down, and you have incompetent psychopaths elected into power - because people are desperate and they want shit to change.

    You can keep yelling at the top of your lungs that the alternative is awful and horrible and Hitler and gas chambers, but what you’re ever more likely to hear is that “well, at least it ends the despair”.

    But sure, ignore everything and keep being as perplexed as most other democrats as to why people keep voting for that buffoon.


  • I dont get it.

    OPs cartoon makes it clear that the dems are oposed to left-wing policies, so commie guy refused to vote against his interests.

    The problem isnt commie guy, it’s all the other brainless sheep who keep voting for the same two parties who don’t represent them.

    Consider this: if all the people forced to vote opted to vote someone else, then the Dems would really understand why they’re failing, and more, you’d have the basis for an actual third party to from.

    But instead you and other dimwits keep preaching the same old 2 party rethoric who has been fucking you over for decades.

    You really don’t get it, huh?

    People heard that shit last time, and they voted democrat, and Biden won. And ABSOLUTELY NOTHING changed.

    At the end of the day, the rich got richer and the poor got poorer, just like they did with trump, and with Obama, and with every single president who has taken office in god knows how many decades.

    And still you’re here yapping “oh noes the horrors, vote Dems”.

    Bro, the Dems aren’t LISTENING! Get a Bernie up there, or an AOC, or anyone that the people actually believe will do anything other than feeding the same interests they have been feeding.

    And if you’re too thick to realize that, at least you’re not alone, the whole DNC is right there with you.


  • Yep, agree.

    I think it works as a joke precisely because it comes out of left field.

    No one is expecting to equate some dude who needs to share a room with a powerful and wealthy British Lord from 2 centuries ago, but you would expect the ex-roomates to be sour with each other (hence why they became ex-), so you’re kinda of expecting a mildly vindictive jab or two.

    If this was early 1900’s England, it’d be a case for a “ooooph, too soon bro…”, but by now it’s fair play on my book.



  • Avgas (100LL) isn’t banned yet. What is banned, starting may 2025, is importing or mixing the lead additive (TEL) itself, so avgas cannot be produced in Europe.

    This means that avgas will have to be imported from elsewhere, which should raise its price and provide an incentive to move away from using it.

    This is a very soft handed approach, I’ll just say I’m very glad I don’t live close to an airfield…

    Edit: jet fuel doesn’t contain lead. Only piston engine aircraft use this fuel.
