I started a blog series (Which will be accompanied by a video series soon) on schemes. The first chapter is on classical algebraic geometry, and the first notions of a generalisation to arbitrary rings. Unfortunately, since tumblr doesn't have LaTeX integration yet, I decided to do this off-site on Functor Network, so that means you will have to go through the mental anguish of clicking a link:
I hope it's worth it.
Edit: Associated video going live tomorrow on youtube:

Yeah, the OP is straight up wrong and I'm not sure why.
Don't be sorry for the correction, or I'd have to be sorry too for knowing this is the strip from November 16, 1986 – one year into C&H and long before he was able to begin experimenting with the panel format.

May I introduce you to my favourite Calvin and Hobbes strip which only got funnier when I got hearing aids.

Did anyone ever like attempt to document and compile the variations of Barney the dinosaur murder ballads across the elementary school system in the early 2000s. Like legit it has always fascinated me as a phenomena and I would love to know if there were like traceable regional variations or what.

There have been a bunch of articles about Hannah Cairo disproving the Mizohata-Takeuchi conjecture. They've been mostly focused on her age (she's 17) but her work is incredibly interested on its own account.
If you have a math or physics background I highly recommend her video lecture about constructing the counter-example. (If you don't have a math or physics background, it's probably too technical-- speaking for myself, it's right at the limit of my understanding.)

My favorite genre of self-portrait is cartoonists being bothered by their characters while trying to draw

Bill Watterson – Calvin and Hobbes (1986)

Hergé – Tintin (1947, Tintin Magazine)

Jeff Smith – Bone (1993, Bone Holiday Special)

Walt Kelly – Pogo (1950, Maclean's Magazine)
And a bonus:

Berkeley Breathed – Bloom County

The "No. Now." is sending me. 1980 Billy Joel I am concerned for you.
#very on the nose considering what we learned about that specific song from the documentary#adding the article link you made so I can remind myself where it is#and also because everyone should reread it#billy joel
