Sherman's Lagoon by Jim Toomey for November 16, 2024

Zortak is not attracted to creatures who look like Kim Kardashian. Would humans be attracted to some of the women on Zortak’s planet?

Oi! If I wanted to see a cartoonist express hatred of humanity, I could go look at Pearls Before Swine. I read this strip to see childish humor, such as Sherman roaring “ABKHAZIA!!!” while spraying saliva everywhere.

Kind of like The Day the Earth Stood Still. “Stop being destructive, or we’ll destroy you!” What a lovely message from the superior races in Space!

If humans don’t do it to themselves first.

LOL!!!!!!!

Hawthorne, I don’t think you’re helping your case.

I agree.

Most definitely.

We don’t need interplanetary destruction. We can accomplish that all by ourselves.

When the oceans are dead, the atmosphere is polluted, the ground is sterile, the wildlife is extinct and humans have resorted to cannibalism, will we admit there might have been more important things than money?

“Beam me up Scotty. There’s no intelligent life down here”.

Signs of Life

Song by Steven Curtis Chapman

Come in base, I’ve landed my ship on a planet here in space

This is the one they say is inhabited by the human race

And I’m going out to look around and see what’s here

And I’ll tell you what I find

Confirmation on the inhabitants, they’re running everywhere

And their technology is beyond what I’ve seen anywhere

But I’m trying to communicate, and they don’t hear me

It seems like for all I’m finding

I can’t find the most important thing

Where are the signs, where are the signs of life?

The love that proves there is a beating heart inside

Where are the signs, where are the signs of life?

The compassion and concern that makes this world turn

Where are the signs of life?

With nasty cretins like nick fuentes and rfk jr. running around, human extinctions sounds like a very good idea.

What happened to Earl? I went back and checked and the story ended with the mayor abandoning him…..

Strike four!!! LMAO

The entire genre pretending that reality is only for keeping up.

Zortak sounds a little like Bill Gates and his ilk. Depopulation should start with them.

“The Dumba$$ians”!

Beam me to your planet, Zortak!

Zortak has good taste.

But isn’t eradicating an entire species an equally heinous crime and the galactic council will have to destroy themselves as punishment?

At least it will be quick.
