Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for November 26, 2023

That’s going to leave a mark.

The cockroaches are just upset because it’s also going to incinerate all of the Twinkies.

Cockroach #2: “And they call themselves an intelligent species…”

“Oh, well, at least it won’t be boring. Care for a Twinkie?”

The rockets are hiding the pods of dolphins leaving the planet (So long, and thanks for all the fish!).

Intelligence often outpaces wisdom, and like one leg outpacing the other, they never finish while growing further apart.

This is what happens when you give a bunch of dumb apes all the power with no sense of responsibility and hint of entitlement.

KABOOM!!!

Darned cocky Madagascar hissing roaches!

Did Elon Musk launch some more of his malfunctioning rockets again?

Reminds me an old Sci-Fi short; the aliens were scouting planets. Got back home and made their report which said stay away from the one called “Earth”, the idiots there test nuclear weapons in the atmosphere!

The human race is acting like a virus growing out of control with no checks on growth until …..

I had to scroll down to see all of this, and it’s stunning that way. Congratulations.

Looks like Iran got the money from the US and put it to use.

Don’t laugh. Around 1988, there were 17 nuclear warheads aimed at Moscow.

Wow! Great graphics. Really amazing effect as you scroll down. Had The Count guessing, boy howdy.

Thankfully Israel has the Iron Dome or all of those Hamas and Hezbollah rockets would have killed thousands and thousands.

Some days ago, Kathleen Parker wrote a scathing article for the WaPo, moaning and groaning about foreigners coming into her southern town and destroying its ambience. The “foreigners” were from the midwest U.S. . . .sigh

This month’s Scientific American’s feature article is on the new arms race.

I enjoyed growing up in the cold war when humankind was always 40 minutes away from extinction.

I wish I couldn’t see that happening. Hopefully not in my lifetime.

Are those the thousands of Hamas missiles sent to kill Jews?

wow …

Right?!

Most of us have an “we VS them” mentality; whether it is sports, religion, politics, even the cars we drive. Makes you wonder how we got as far as we did and is there a peaceful future? Can there be a peaceful future?

Don’t worry, boys. By this time next century, you cockroaches will have the planet all to yourselves.

The reason aliens don’t make contact. They’re afraid were contagious.

(imagines a different version of the dialogue of this cartoon)

THEY SHOULD STOP CALLING US AN INVASIVE SPECIES AFTER THIS

that is powerful, wow!

Someday (soon) this will all be yours

North Korea in a few years

A mouse would never invent a mouse trap.

the only dumb animals are humans

Yes. What oakie817 said.

La cucaracha, la cucaracha,

ya no puede caminar

porque le falta, porque no tiene

marihuana pa’ fumar.

Ya murió la cucaracha

ya la llevan a enterrar

entre cuatro zopilotes

y un ratón de sacristán.

I’m going out on a limb here and guessing this was drawn shortly after Oct 7.

Bet they will be alive after the dust clears—-

The funnies don’t seem all that funny this morning.

Sad but true.

Another war to end all wars….this one may work.

On the other hand, you guys will probably be one of the few still around after we’re gone and have taken a bunch of others with us.

Peace through violence; when will we learn….

Deterrence works. None of us have ever seen a nuclear exchange of ICBMs.

I’ve read that you need one (or more) of those missiles of the atomic variety to kill cockroaches. I believe that. They may be invasive, but like the meek, shall inherit the Earth.

Endtown the early years

Wow. Stunning.

I note that nobody has mentioned WHY the Israelis want ALL of the gazan citizens out of gaza………..

Ha! All those warheads and you still got bedbugs.

Be patient the world will be yours again soon

Ron Perlman narration in 5,4,3…

Brilliant perspective … drawing perspective, not necessarily socio/political perspective, but maybe :)

Oh my God, this ART. The subject matter is all too depressingly true, but it gives me joy that some members of our invasive species have this kind of artistic talent. (And scrolling down and seeing it “unfold” makes the art even more powerful.)
