Ugh, I hate Bernice. She’s a terrible character, and she’s not even remotely qualified to do all of the so called “counseling” she does, under the guise of being a psychology student.
Hiring back someone you let go is always a bad idea. I only did it once in over 20 years as a manager, and it blew up in my face. i never did it again.
I used to love this strip when Mark was doing it. I could handle the new art style and direction, if the story lines or characters were better, but I’m always disappointed. I check back every few months to see if it’s gotten better and sadly it hasn’t. I don’t think I’ll bother anymore.
Corvids are insanely intelligent. They dont just make tools, they construct them from multiple parts. Man and the great Apes are the only other ones to do that. They also communicate complex and abstract information between themselves, few other species can do that.
When we were kids, my little brother and I were fishing off a small dock. He bent down to tie his shoe and his line twitched just as he started to stand up. He lost his balance reaching for the pole, which he had leaned up against a piling. He windmilled for several seconds like he was in a cartoon before he fell in the water. I laughed so hard I was crying. Fish got away with his bait too. It became an inside joke between the two of us for decades.
