Ah, thank you kindly, I tried that first, but was worried as the preview did not actually reflect it --- because I just copy/pasted the url, and forgot to prefix [url]https://[/url] to it, which explains it.
Also the whole thing about the page says that img,timg and video tags are forbidden, made me a bit unsure.
They only work if the images are already hosted on the SA servers.

Well, img, I dunno if timg or video will work.

Hm, I guess that explains how some people have giant avatars sometimes.
Since if it supports SA hosted content, then you can just img-up previous avatars as well?

e: Yeah, it totally does, that's neat.

for me that's always been a strength of his art. i feel like the way farside is presented mimics being a work of art, the framed single panel with statement underneath mirroring that of an old painting, framed, with title embossed beneath. it asks you to consider it not just as a piece of art, but as art on display, as a museum goer to the absurd, unreal, world it inhabits and documents. the frozen images of his subjects conveying that we aren't intended to be the first-hand witnesses of these accounts, aren't peeking into this world ourselves through the work of the artist, but are instead fully reliant on the artist to capture it and put it on display.
And that circular hooting mouth he does is absolutely perfect.

I only have excellent ideas
Dykes to Watch Out For #120 (1991)



As amigolupus mentioned the other day, one of my favorite things about DtWoF is that Mo is difficult in a very believable way. Her friends love her but they aren't rhetorical doormats, her curmudgeonly ways have consequences and people push back on her in interesting and dynamic ways. Here we see her lovely mood about Thea crashing head-on into the simmering subplot about her relationship Harriet.

"You used to think I was adorable when I panicked" is kind of a big red flag but an almost heartbreakingly human and relatable one. I think it's obvious that Harriet flagged Mo's flaws right away but perhaps naively thought she could "fix" her in the same way that Mo thought she could "fix" Harriet's liberal streak. This whole long subplot, while ramshackle and progressing in fits-and-starts, feels very very compellingly like break-ups I've witnessed and break-ups I've been through, where everybody involved is a good person and everybody loves and cares for each other, but the romantic relationship is just corrosive over time.

I cannot find a recipe for "sweet and sour soybean succotash," but I can imagine that it's pretty good, presumably a succotash mashed up with sweet and sour tofu. If I remember and if my wife is game I will try to invent this dish out of vegan Frankenstein parts and report back. I like sweet and sour tofu and I like succotash so gosh I bet Mo is partying.

U.S. District Judge Gerhard Gesel dismissed all charges against Oliver North on September 16th, 1991, so this is another fairly easy strip to date. We're getting close to the end of Dykes to Watch Out For: The Sequel, or the fourth volume of Firebrand Books' reprint series. It ends with everybody getting ready for New Year's Eve so we'll have a nice crisp transition into a new volume and 1992.

I don't know the exact font, and I suspect CK has their own house fonts, but I usually use Action Man, and that seems close enough. It helps make it look more natural if you replace all the text in all the bubbles too, but I usually don't.

Blambot has always been a good resource, but not all of them are free.

If Brandy had an ounce of sense she'd run for the hills the instant she read that 'it's you I'm addicted to now' line. But this is MW so I expect it to be framed as so romantic.

Did something happen with China at the start of November 1978? The paper I'm getting these from has had a week or two of China-related articles on or near the front page every day.


China had been moving away from the Soviet Union for most of the '60s, culminating in Nixon's visit to China in the early '70s. Additional diplomacy largely went to the back burner following Mao's death and the power struggle that came afterwards. In January of 1979, Deng Xiaoping visited the United States in the first high-ranking Communist Party official to come to the United States. While the visit wouldn't be announced officially until December, discussions of it and talk of bettering relations with China would like have been a prime topic of news in late 1978.
