B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for January 15, 2023

Hopefully somebody knows how to inoculate.

Meh.

And it all washed off during the oceanic transit.

Now if it was a Blanket I’d worry .

Wow. Not funny Hart.

Time to get some cow-pox. That’s how they used to fight smallpox.

Rest assured you scared timid readers. The salt in the marine water is a natural bacterial killer. That’s why they call salt a preservative of food.

Well that was dark.

♫ Warning, live without warning…♫

was actually done to indian tribes over the years

I had my smallpox shot when I was about 4 years old. It’s probably time to get a booster shot.

I sprayed this thing with Covid virus and Fentanyl dust. From… “You Know Who”,

Return to sender.

And yet we continue sending messages into space, looking for other civilizations. Those advanced enough to respond, must be on old planets who might be in need of a new one.

And so it starts.

They have floating stone tablets. But haven’t figured out boats yet?

that which doesn’t kill us makes us stronger!?!

Peter, you have it backwards. Your correspondent sees you question as a threat and remembers, “Strike first and ask questions later.”You can hope that time, sunshine & salt water have sterilized.

Oy‼️

“Blankets for your land we agreed. Well, blankets for land is a bargain indeed. And the blankets were taken from small pox diseased dying soldiers that day. So the tribes were wiped out and the histories rewritten. Your fore fathers decided it’s better that way.” —-Buffy St. Marie.(From memory, so might be a word or two inaccurate.)

“What if what you gave me mutates/evolves into a form to which you have no immunity and I return it to you?”

Peter shows more grace than people do today. Today the message would be the opposite- how can I be sure that you aren’t a threat to me?

Still too soon…

B.C., the COVID era.

Smallpox, now that has a vaccine that really works

So he’s been corresponding with C hina all this time.

Spoiler alert, they survive, Just wait for tomorrow? BIG Question, did they just declare war on BC? Yip yip yip yip yip

And contaminated the ocean along the way.

Thoughts and prayers will save him.

8 years ago that wouldn’t have mattered, but then the hard right antivaxxers started to actively hate science. The measles is back, Polio is back, soon you will see diphtheria and whooping cough. The only bright spot is the HPV vaccine, though evangelical are strong against it.

Must’ve landed in China.

How The Western countries were “settled".

Not actually funny, considering how gruesome a disease is smallpox, and how it affected the aboriginal inhabitants of the Americas, including possible use as a weapon of genocide. (See, for instance, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandan.)

The first recorded biological attack.

Zopps! They are more advanced over there and scary dangerous. BC and the others don’t need inoculations since they aren’t fully human, and their bodies are far tougher than humans are. Those across the way are different too but not that different from BC and his people.
