We don’t have enough children, our birth rate is too low. Yet allowing young immigrants to come in? Terrible idea for some reason.

Maybe I’m explaining the joke, but Jon is supposed to be an Everyman.

I’m a huge long-term fan of the Garfield comics. Lyman basically ditches Jon with Odie. It’s never explained in detail because it’s a 3 frame comic. More optimistically, and “cannon” Jon was enthusiastic about inheriting Odie while Lymon left for unexplained reasons. Jon thought owning a dog would help him meet women.

As for the quote you referenced. Garfield has thought bubbles. Jon talks. Lyman exists because he can talk while Garfield can only “think”. Jim Davis originally thought it would be confusing to have thought clouds and talk bubbles interacting. Like how does a cat talk with a person? But that quickly became the norm in the comic. Once talking and thinking could interact, Lyman no longer needed to exist.

Rare appearance of Jon’s friend Lyman, who doesn’t appear in hardly anything after 1980.

The metric system is a tool of the devil! My car gets 40 rods to the hogshead and that’s the way I likes it.

The article makes it sound like he was tied to the trunk of a tree, not hanging from a branch, and also that there was no knot in the rope. I’m definitely having trouble putting those details together into suicide or murder or lynching, the whole thing is very odd.

What was the rope for if it was a suicide? Seeing that we know he wasn’t hung by it.

I can see why the sheriff doesn’t want to rush to call it lynching when there isn’t evidence of lynching specifically. BUT it appears to be a horrific and violent crime that surely should be their first priority. Sheriff’s statement is downplaying the whole thing.

Damage already done. But I’m happy to see she’s sorry.

Prior to Trump it was mostly fringe candidates like Storm Thurmund (1948), George Wallace (1968), David Duke (1988, 1992), Pat Buchanan (1992, 1996).

In terms of major candidates, there are some questionable endorsements for candidates like Nixon and Reagan. But you have to go all the way back to Woodrow Wilson to find a president who was openly happy about receiving those endorsements.

They announced the Moana live action remake before they announced Moana 2.

Update from a few weeks ago:

Falling Down (1993), Freeway (1996) are two that I saw fairly recently and the 90’s were jumping off the screen.

Pauly Shore had 90’s career. Encino Man (1992), Jury Duty (1995), Bio-Dome (1996). His only movie of the 2000’s was Pauly Shore is Dead (2003) which was about no one caring about him anymore.

Who’s making you use it?

It’s useful for lots of things, but it requires a proof reader.

That’s for employing me for 8 years!

That’s pretty much the plot of King Kong.

That’s just normal left.

Why do you think immigration is only a huge deal in election years? No one even talks about it unless there’s an election coming up or unless it’s Fox News complaining about Dems.

I wouldn’t call that centerist because you’re not claiming to be in the middle on any issues. Too many of these “ideas from both sides” are at complete contradiction to each other. One of the parties is overtly racist and says diversity is bad. Being a racist pro-choicer doesn’t make you a centerist.

Also about news bias, it should be the default to be least biased in my opinion. The news should be boring and should just tell you what happened without telling you how you should feel about it.

Yeah would be great. That sort of reporting died a long time ago.
