I actually thought he was doing okay until he ran out of patience and threw his helmet at the explody drone.

It’s a good thing that Russian troops are so poorly trained.

Correction: Looked like a self propelled gun.

Currently looks like chunks of smoking debris.

Hmm, good question.

I spot checked 3 articles on parents, kids and Frozen, and found 3 different writers.

Bob Ross’ show ended 30 years ago, and PBS and NPR funding has declined even more as a proportion of operating costs since then.

Although I do have to add that the NYTimes has umm, a weird obsession with Frozen, moreso than other mainstream news orgs that I read.

There’s a collection of related articles at the bottom of the article page with titles like:

“My Son Loves Elsa From ‘Frozen.’ I Had to Learn to Love Her, Too”

“The Kids Who Love ‘Frozen’ and the Parents Who Love Them”

“Achieving Transcendence on the Millionth ‘Frozen’ Viewing”

That’s what NPR and PBS were supposed to be, but they’re so perpetually underfunded that they’re almost commercial stations. edit: with corporate sponsors and viewer funding pledge drives.

Some public stations have been taken over by right wing orgs that came in with massive funding.

For those interested, before the Very Special Military Operation, the 83rd Airborne Brigade had about 40,000 men.

Without fuzes, which are only screwed in just before firing, modern artillery shells are really difficult to set off.

If you think about it, the act of firing a shell out of a cannon and sending it miles away is pretty violent, but the shells don’t explode in the cannon.

Without the correct fuzes, the shells won’t even explode when they land.

I don’t get it. Is Pembrose the couch?

Good knowledge, but these guys with skulls displayed on their spears don’t look like shrunken-head type headhunters.

Maybe they keep their shrunken heads in humidity controlled, UV filtering display cabinets off camera.

I guess I worded it poorly.

I meant to cleverly say “Don’t hate your nose” and apparently failed.

My apologies.

My advice on contouring makeup: don’t.

It’s like one of those perspective illusion paintings. It only works when viewed from one direction, and looks somewhat unnatural when viewed from any other.

I prefer just making my skin look less flawed with foundation, then following my natural blush areas, adding a little blush color to make the foundation look less pasty.

p.s. Your nose looks fine! Don’t do a Michael Jackson!

This is one of my favorite strips!

But thinking about it, how much of his head is flesh?

His face isn’t much bigger normal.

Unless his jawbone has a 1.5 foot chin, most of the head under his mouth is going to be skin and fat.

And if his skull is normal sized, his neck bones must be extremely distended, and his neck muscles must be extremely strong to support the weight of the entire head.

The strip is just better to contemplate as a fanciful idea and move on.

The official reason for the introduction of the six-day work week is that there is a shortage of skilled workers on the Greek labor market as the population keeps shrinking and the country losing scores of thousands of workers who fled during the economic and austerity crisis in search of jobs in other countries.

So “The austerity and beatings will continue until morale improves.”

Don’t blame the writers, some of whom are long dead, and some titles are long out of print.

Might also be a sign of a stalemate this is in this area.

That’s got all kinds of disturbing implications.

Clearly the toe went to market of its own free will, and left a note behind as a courtesy

1. Selling something that has free will is slavery
2. What are the legal implications of owning somebody else’s digits?
3. Toes are courteous and have free will?

Another opinion from a random pro-Russian idiot’s website.

What is going on with the tankies posting here today?

What is this?

Shit News Source Day?

This one didn’t work…

I think he was trying to do the Warner Bros cartoon thing where a character’s head turns into a pan shape when hit by a pan…

Larson doesn’t capture the zeitgeist of that toon trope, and the figures being arrested are too small.
