This is the single best metaphor I have ever read. I taught Shakespeare for years, and he never came close to this! I need to write this down (with attribution) so I never forget it!
I’m an Eagle Scout too, and Hegseth is garbage.
God, I forgot about the random number and letter username from Twitter, and always the same insane rambling.
I’m really excited for a new Backderf comic!!
I went to Sunday School in the Lutheran Church, but I guess I never read the actual 95 theses before.

I’m not a golfer, but this post made my whole day! Thanks!
I agree with you absolutely!
Thank you, Derf! I needed this!

The bootstrap metaphor began in late nineteenth / early twentieth century to indicate impossibility. “A poor man becoming a millionaire? You might as well try to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps.”
What awful people! And they are the same who hector us about some War on Christmas!
I totally agree with you! When I was an English teacher, I’d write for my students as examples of what I was asking them to do and share my writing process. Since I retired in June, I start my day writing for myself, but AI never touches my work. I want all my flaws as a writer to be my own.

MTG Welcome to the Resistance?
JHC, I campaigned and voted for this POS!
When I was a kid, the jazz in Charlie Brown specials depressed me. Now it makes me feel realllll mellow.
When I was a Boy Scout in the ‘70s, we had red berets, and I hated it with a passion. Sliwa celebrates my childhood trauma
Well *that’s* the reason everything sounds so familiar.
Maybe they can dust off the old Facebook poke function?
Maybe he asked grok?
I’ve had a few non-genetically related uncles and aunts, including a dude a couple years younger than me
Even though I never followed Cilizza, I just went and blocked his dumb ass.
I write a lot of short stories, not to publish or share, just for myself and some friends, but I’d never freaking use AI. I’m not great or even particularly good, but I have too much self-respect to use slop. My flaws are my own. BTW, you are a great writer!
I’m watching it right now!
“[Randolph] Carter did not wish to meet a bhole.” I mean, should we tell him not to reach around?
