> FERDINAND II.
And so your PLANT shall henceforth be known as FERDINAND II.
The thought of needing to inform FERDINAND I of his having a namesake makes you a bit ill, but you are already hard at work devising several plausible excuses for the gesture. Something about how you've named it after the one most invested in its naming, or how it is similarly prone to drooling. Yes. Yes, you will be able to deflect quite easily, should the need arise. It has nothing to do with your fondness for FERDINAND or your desire for a substitute in his imminent absence, no—again, you are not so prone to sentimentality. It's about the drool.
Well, anyway. Best to move on with your day and think about something else, lest you grow maudlin or cultivate further affection for the PLANT. May the GODDESS be merciful and never cause you to develop inclinations that could be described as paternal.
Now that your plant has received sufficient care, it is time for COFFEE. You set to making your morning brew. By CHANCE, there happens to be sufficient water remaining in the kettle for FERDINAND I to have TEA, should he wish it.
Per your TIMEPIECE, it is now a quarter to eight. You have made excellent progress on your PRE-BREAKFAST TO-DO LIST thus far: the only remaining task is to remove FERDINAND. You are starting to get rather peckish and would like to be rid of him quickly, but over the past week, you have found that extracting the man from YOUR QUARTERS is a more arduous task than it ought to be.

"if I was rich I'd cure world hunger" well if I was rich, I'd buy out every single billboard along every major interstate and put my favorite newspaper comic on them, one panel per billboard. Double up on the wordy-er panels so no one misses a punchline. No more ads. No more clutter. Just poof, overnight, gone. You never looked at that Perkins billboard off exit 13 anyway, and now you get three and a half jokes on your commute. Going on a road trip? Buckle up, pal, you're getting 4+ hours of Calvin and Hobbes

Thanks to this post on Reddit, I realized when one (1) unreliable narrator Jason Peter Todd was born. Is it any surprise that it was when he died :)))))))))
Your whole life??? I can count on one hand the number of times you got angry. Right now you’re hoping Sheila will make it to Heaven after she got you killed,
And you still consider her your mom. You lived and died an angel.
You had no clue what was going to happen. You were a child who never should have been left alone by his parent.
You and me both, Boston.

it is fascinating seeing ppl say "if you still vote biden just bc he's protected trans rights youre putting your own rights above that of the other people he'll kill" bc i'm like. well that operates under the assumption the Not Biden Option won't be killing those same other people Plus Trans People and given the history of presidents i would say that is a. how should i say this. wild fucking assumption? like idk framing it as "hello transgender, would you rather kill a bunch of non-americans or a bunch of fellow trans people. oh, you don't want to kill trans people? so you personally want to kill non-americans? racist selfish piece of shit" seems uhhhhh disingenuous at absolute best and a psyop at worst

I'm not sure if anyone has asked this before and I am just too stupid to find it but how exactly did Nomu!Zawa die? I read something about "being taken" I would love to know the details to this heartwrenching good AU
No you’re not stupid!! 💜 I haven’t actually revealed the specifics of that yet; so far the only details of The Taking I’ve tossed out there are where and when and who saw it happen and how they all felt afterwards

Silver is capable of catching bullets and missiles fired at high speeds and very large numbers as well as grabbing multiple things while he himself is flying so I don't think Silver has a problem with moving targets.
I'll put these two asks together since they focus on the same topic, and I think both of you bring up good points as well. Perhaps in IDW it gave Silver more struggles because what's-his-name (Neo Metal Sonic turned dragon) suddenly jolted to fling everyone off, and some of them would absolutely have fallen to their dooms if Silver hadn't intervened? So with such a sudden stressful situation, I figure it could be more straining for him. Though, he is shown to be explicitly struggling in the panel afterwards, and I do think that is somewhat exaggerative considering the points you bring up. Silver's indeed carried far more than ten of his friends floating in various directions, and also far heavier items in similar high-speed hectic situations.

I wanted to do a terrible stick figure comic to accompany the Bugsnax fanfic I posted last week, but like usual I got too tired to finish it in time. So here it is now! The only relevant context is that Floofty is nine, and they're stuck at the nurse's office because their little brother doesn't want to leave his injured friend yet.
I like to think that young Grumpuses really do look like strange bean bag creatures, stick figure or not.
Doing image descriptions down below instead of in the alt text this time, because I'm still not sure of how long alt text descriptions should reasonably be.
Description:
Panel 1:
(A younger version of Floofty is sitting on a chair and looking upwards)
Floofty: I can at least take some comfort that this phase of Snorpington's will not last forever
Panel 2:
Caption: VISION OF THE FUTURE'D!!!
(Floofty levitates in surprise)
Panel 3:
Off-panel voice (green): But Bro, we do everything together! What if someone happens to you while I'm gone?!
Off-panel voice (yellow): Me?! I'll be on this lovely beach! What if something happens to YOU?
Floofty: (squinting) Is that Snorpington? ...Why does he have a cake on his head?
Panel 4
Off-panel voice (purple): Yes, yes, you could both be struck by a meteor at any moment. Honestly, they do this every time Chandlo goes to check the mail.
Floofty: Is that me?! I'm hilarious!
Panel 5
(Extreme close-up of Floofty squinting, in the same stick figure style)
Floofty: And... made of tin cans, apparently?
