Fighting games after the patch drops

When I was young, it felt possible to read every single interesting comic book and graphic novel published in English.

Now, it's not only impossible to read them all, it's not even possible to know about them all.

This is the golden age of comics.

If they were going to do that, they'd have fully mined the strait already instead of only mining it a little.

2 panel comic

Panel 1 is titled β€œClient Feedback (2012)
Red Guy sits at his desk typing on his laptop. There is a bubble on the right hand side of the panel showing his screen.
A small text panel says β€œand the”. There is an arrow pointing to the bottom of the words with a correction box that reads: β€œText is slightly misaligned. Please fix”

Panel 2 is titled β€œClient feedback (2026)
Red Guy is slouched on chair typing into his phone. His phone screen shows a panel of text that is complete gibberish. This time the correction reads β€œnot alphabet but who give a fuck”

my general theory in Trump/Iran is that Trump had the thought, 15 years ago or more, that going into Iran would be broadly popular, has never reevaluated that thought, and is currently shocked about how all this is going, while also possessing none of the skills necessary to stop it

on the bright side i can't imagine losing a democratic primary against ilhan omar as an ICE lawyer is much work at all

This isn’t real. Someone is doing an elaborate bit.

Enshitification ratchet or realignment is basically the ballgame.

Which can come down to this question: can a critical mass of the electorate (both by churn and persuasion) change its preferences?

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

One Irony of their Only Decapitations, No Attrition strategy is that they keep killing the people who could credibly stop the attacks

really feeling the racism of clash of civilizations bullshit as this American government seemed to genuinely convince themselves that Iran was not going to fight back, and is now in shambles figuring out what to do

We will see our friends again someday, so we will care for this world they left behind. And I know they will be proud of us.

Hays Code was self enforced! So was Comics Code Authority! These weren’t laws and look what still lasted DECADES and destroyed careers/freedom of expression. US comics industry never recovered from it bc comics aimed at adults still aren’t a thing, that’s why manga filled the market gap.

They're trying to do the latter as a way to do the former. Obviously.

At some point Trump may decide to unilaterally stop bombing Iran, but does Israel? Does Iran immediately stop hitting the bases and ships? Does Trump admit defeat (because it would absolutely be defeat)? There are a million things that pull him further into the vortex and not many pushing him out.
