Thanks for the support, I've created "donation" and "subscription" buttons on the right-hand side of this website, beneath the comic strip. You can choose to either make a one-time donation in any amount, or become a subscriber at $2.99 per month. With newspapers closing every few months, this is the best way people can ensure that the comics they like will still exist even after the papers are gone.

Thanks for that excellent post. It's inspired a storyline I hope to get to in the next few weeks!

He\'s just seen something even scarier...

You're welcome, glad you liked it.

I sent this to them very last-minute, last week when the foundation defunded them.

I agreed with that until a couple months ago. I was one of the harshest critics of VOY at trekbbs.com when it first ran.

But a couple months ago, after running through every sci fi show I could find, I finally ran out of stuff to stream on Netflix, and decided to watch a few VOY episodes just to remind myself how awful it was. After a few episodes, I found myself wondering what this show was, and what had it done with the Voyager I knew and hated? This show was actually... good (with the exception of "Threshold," which was even worse than I'd remembered).

If (like me) you haven't watched it since the Nineties, I suggest you give it another look. You might be surprised to find out that it looks like a different, and much better, show.

Yes, that's exactly where he gets it from. If you search for the issues he raises, all you'll find are links to right wing blogs and Fox News' Sean Hannity. First they demonized Planned Parenthood, now they're demonizing the very concept of a medical referral. Not to mention they seem to pretend they've never heard of cervical cancer, something else Planned Parenthood screens for on a regular basis.

Incidentally, I wanted @jackass.com, but the syndicate said no to that and .net because they're actual websites. I thought this was better than their suggestion: "@im-a-jerk.com"

The WHAT tag?

That just proves Poli Sci is for slackers.
