  • The punchline is entirely self-referential. Or rather, there isn’t a punchline. This is a really basic exchange as could be found in the real comment sections of basically any woman posting photos of herself online.

    Except that the person who draws this comic uses it primarily to advertise her OnlyFans, so somehow she’s connected annoyance with the constant promotion of her terrible joke-free comics with the same thing that that means all criticism of her is incel fury and not, yknow, people wanting comics to be promoted for how good they are rather than how entrenched her subscribers are.









  • Yes! EVs still have a smaller ordinary car battery in them. It charges from the main battery in the same way in a ICE car it will charge from the alternator. If the main battery is dead, or just for some reason not charging the small battery, it can effectively act exactly as if an ICE car has a dead battery.

    Fun fact, you can also use that fact to use existing car battery to mains power gadgets in the case of a home power outage without the more complex dedicated reverse-charging that only some cars (and chargers) support, but without running an ICE in/outside your house for hours.



  • Yes. I specifically mentioned ISIS came from American misrule in Iraq. The people aligned with ISIS were on America’s side during the Iraq war.

    I can picture the pitch to an EU that has just accepted a massive long term project of trying to lift Eastern Europe out of post-Soviet destitution. OK bro, divest bro because obviously the techbros are going to turn America fascist once the boomers implode the world economy in a few years. Just do it bro. Match American military spending bro. You need it bro.


  • Until 2004, the EU was a western European entity, with Greece alone possible to describe as being anywhere near the Middle East, and lacking a land border with the rest of the EU.

    The Iraq war did not cause and international migration crisis. People were primarily moved internally and to other (unfriendly) ME countries.

    What really started the migration crisis was ISIS and the Syrian war, 10 years later. Where a Russian ally fought the byproduct of American misrule in the Middle East, and Russian allies directed migrants into Eastern European countries unready for them financially or culturally.

    Quite what the EU, a non-military force that primarily overlaps with NATO, was supposed to do differently there I don’t know. Should it have predicted that the US would essentially lose to Assad, to the Taliban, and that they would then switch sides and ally with Russia while still in NATO?
