BEING OF SOUND MIND AND ONE ACCORD
Morning,
Ken-Dogger: Morning Buttons, a question?
Buttons: Yep, it’s March…
Flowers, Spring coming?
KD: It will this month, maybe we’ll actually enjoy this Spring.
B: You’re vaccinated now, will make it more enjoyable for you.
KD: And more vaccine becomes available, we can overcome this.
B: Great, all we need to do now is act in one accord.
KD: You just spoke our biggest obstacle, acting in one accord.
B: Do you want to beat this or not?
“If an embryo is a person, a bag of dry cement is a patio. Where was it in the Constitution that it talks about cryogenically frozen blastocysts, again? Doesn’t matter; the Alabama State Supreme Court gets its legal authority from the Bible now. Where was it in the Bible — that compendium of settled case law — that it talks about cryogenically frozen blastocysts, again? According to the ruling, that would be Jeremiah 1:5 (yes, really). Remember when we just worried about Sharia law?”

CONTROLLING ACCESS
Ken-Dogger: Hey Champ, what up?
Champ: Dude, I’m not liking this door.
KD: I’m hip, but it does control our living situation.
C: I’m looking for access, not control.
KD: Well, you see now, that’s a problem…You say you want access, but I’m hearing you want control.
C: Yes, I want to control my access…
KD: That’s heresy, thinking those who have access also have control.
C: Not for those in power…
KD: I starting to see why you want to control access.

Nick Anderson cartoon
“Trump is a strange bird. I often see him as a dangerous, demagogic fascist. Other times he seems like a goofy buffoon. I think he's both, and today I decided to do a mashup image to capture this strange juxtaposition. He's a fascist, but one who also tries to capitalize on his gaudy brand with tacky products like these ugly sneakers.”-NA
