Where does Alice watch “Dynasty”?

In regard to “reading her blankets”, I think it refers to homeless people using newspapers for blankets, to cover up & try to stay dry & a bit warmer?

I wonder what Alice & Mr. Schwartzmann talked about.

As a bachelor, I find that she is right, my married friends never talk to each other it seems.

If Joanie is considered beautiful, than she needs a new artist to draw her as such.

That’s a pretty idiotic thing to say and might make you feel happy or superior to others, but bull all the same. Also I never got the racial vibe from what’s in the strip. That’s over-reaching a bit.

People who “look decent” and don’t attract attention while they quietly stuff merchandise into their pockets are the ones who commit most of the trouble in stores.

Didja ever stop to think that the profiling that happens in this country is initiated in the media? When was the last time anyone heard about some white guy protesting police violence or some white guy (other than Dugger or Trump) being a social deviant that captures the worlds attention? We’re all puppets dancing on strings managed by Fox and CNN. Gaaaa!

Or, at least, are arrested for the trouble they commit. White kids might get off with a warning. That’s also profiling.

@summerdog re Joannie’s looks: just wait a while, her looks will only improve with your age
