Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for July 28, 2016
Transcript:
Pig: Hey, Goat. This is my pal, Linda. She's never been promoted and her employer doesn't appreciate her attempts to break the glass ceiling. Goat: They're sexist? Woman: I work in a greenhouse. Pig: She just can't stop throwing rocks. Man: It's fun to break those little panes. Goat: I get it, stop.

Does Pig have a secret green thumb? Does he frequent (or should I say more plainly “stalk”) greenhouses? How did he get to know Linda? There is so much back-story that needs to be filled in here, while the broken panes of glass are being replaced….

On the subject of promoting women, I can name three women I know that have advanced technical degrees who were advancing in their fields and when they had their first child decided to totally quit working and stay home. And people wonder why companies are cautious about putting resources and time into advancing women.

People who work in glass houses should not throw stones.

I remember the Saturday morning children’s show Isis, which was about an archaeologist who turns into a super-heroine.:I’m now glad I don’t try to find “Isis” fan sites.

(followup to earlier message) The last time the strip “Ordinary Bill” mentions his girlfriend’s name (Isis) is May 25, 2016. http://www.gocomics.com/ordinary-bill/2016/05/25 . Not that long ago.

So can anyone clear up who or where it was “banned” from exactly? Just GoComics or somewhere else?
