    No one ever checks the windows. Or looks up, for that matter.

        Using ones penis is unsanity. You just leave them a note saying, “Something in your room has been in your toliet. Good luck finding out what.” I know any college dorm person could go relatively insane trying to figure out just WHAT you put in their toliet.

      I hadn’t thought of that. They would have known each other as kids, right? I mean, if Billie and Walky are still childhood friends, and Walky and Sal weren’t separated at birth…

      Crazy theory that probably has no merit whatsoever: Billie had something to do with the convenience store incident, but Sal ended up taking all the blame.

        Yeah. Besides, she went to elementary school with the Walkertons. Even if she hasn’t seen a lot of Sal lately, “like Walky but a chick” would be a pretty good guess.

    I didn’t recognize Billie without her glasses at first. For an instant I thought it was a fatter Robin waking up from a Cadbury Creme Egg bender (just after Easter, you know).

    Also, is the first frame implying that they live on the top floor? If so, I’m very impressed by Sal’s wall-climbing abilities.

“last fall I had this idea for a zine about Dilbert quitting his job and trying to learn to be happy and coming to terms with the fact that he’s trans actually” (posted 4/18/2022)
A sketch of Dilbert sitting at his desk, looking worn out. “There used to be a light inside of me,” he thinks, “when did I let this place snuff it out?”
Dilbert, now with slightly longer hair, eyeliner, and earrings, is putting on a scarf. After wrapping it around her neck, it springs up like her tie did in the comics. She smiles, her mouth visible for the first time.

very into these inconvenient, extremely long and pointy shoes that spread across europe in the 14th century and made everyone so horny and effeminate that the church went full on moral panic mode and a bunch of kings made them illegal!!! also everyone got bunions
They were a controversial fashion and faced criticism from several quarters. In 1368, Charles V of France issued an edict banning their construction and use in Paris.

Sometimes I forget I have an original Sunstreaker! During Shortpacked! times I was gifted a giant pile of G1 from a fan, and this guy has trouble finding purchase in my memory. The tooling was lost/destroyed decades ago, so he's never been reissued.

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that. The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one. This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

I work as an elder and hospice caregiver, which I am oddly passionate about. I can love on them shamelessly and no one complains about my codependence. It's a win-win situation. 

Many of my caregiving colleagues complain about the repetitive questions and, sometimes reactions, of the elderly, especially when those patients happen to read the newspaper, especially with the current downward spiral of our country — as if these people haven't lived through enough horror...

I love my dementia peeps, but sometimes wonder if there's a Guinness Book World Record for how many times an hour a dementia patient can repeat the same question — it's got to be in the hundreds. At least with small children, they ask different questions. Dementia patients will get stuck on one short question and ask it until you can interrupt their train(carousel) of thought and successfully redirect their attention. That carousel is pretty manic sometimes. 

A couple days ago, I picked up my mail from the post office and drove over to the nursing home to take (let's call her

Tried printing Amber leaning back, hoping fir a cleaner face, as she's looking down and all the supports wrench up in there. But her soles might not be flat enough to stand this way, so we'll see.
