She asks:
Why are there medieval peasants (circa 1300) talking about the French Revolution ( 1789-1802)? I get the comment was supposed to be wryly funny, but I can’t get past the characters.
I guess the cartoonist is fuzzy about how revolting French people would have dressed? Maybe AI involved, “Draw me some people from long ago”. Srsly, it’s an excellent question, and an unnecessary distraction from the point of the cartoon!
Tomlinson is from South Africa, but I don’t think that gets him a bye on this detail.

A Geezer Alert? I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen a scale like this one. If you have, do they still use pennies?

The monument on Ali’s grave in Cave Hill Cemetery, Louisville. Ali’s original quote is “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth”

Jack Applin wants to make us think, aided by these two comics that ran the same day: “I’m certainly inconsistent when I try to separate the artist from their art. I can no longer watch one actor for his stance in vaccination, and yet I enjoy the music of another performer despite his dubious actions concerning minors.”


From Dirk the Daring:
Meow? It’s a New Yorker cartoon so, you know…Nonetheless, what?


This worked for Jeremy’s older brother Chad, who hasn’t had an on-panel appearance since 2006 (although occasionally mentioned). I think Chad is in the Marines, though.
