# Latest Comics## Bespoke SpeechBig Walk fucks. Even the *reviews* of the game are good! It occurs to me that this might be ambiguous phrasing. What I mean is that the reviews *themselves* are of a high quality. They can't wait to tell people about it! They had so much weird fun that they have been transformed into repeater stations - they're shedding spores. They've reached the fruiting phase! That's how good it is.## Hostile RadishesMorak and I are on the same page where the Supergirl movie is concerned, which is that it is pretty good and we can't wait to see the children of Krypton together again, but that as entertainment it genuinely can't get out of its own way. The clearest example of this was a last minute series of A/B tests where they previewed two different cuts of the film, and in the end the studio went with its cut over the director's own. If you make things, though - and maybe even if you don't - there's simply confusion in the piece and a schizoid edit that indicates nobody's vision is on display. Also, there's a lotta rocks.## Jimothy ChalametRaccoons in my neighborhood, save one, are *not* spherical. They are big though, off that Seattle trash. They're fat as fuck off Brie rinds and *jamón ibérico* trimmings. Some of these bad boys can deliver near-cryptid thrills. When I was driving home one night, I saw one that didn't even read as a raccoon visually - my mind told me that it was most likely a toddler that had escaped from some kind of toddler… prison. That's what it gave me! Not helpful.## CyberbulliesIt's almost exactly what it says on the tin. Now Sam Altman just said that they were close to inventing a genie that could grant any wish, and that… I mean, that's padded cell type shit. Frankly, it's an SEC intervention at the very minimum. You can't say shit like this - I would say "period," but you absolutely can't say shit like this on the run up to an IPO. But they can say whatever they want, take whatever they want, and do whatever they want. That's the demoralization operation, well underway. It has a shelf-life, though. They can only loan each other money for so long. Then, they'll socialize the losses through nationalization.
