I continue to love your work. This one especially.

may the spirit of the machine bless your devices. Thank you!

This (and 12 seconds to midnight) is actually a different point of view of an event from many decades ago, as originally seen in this comic: https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/14405073

If you are a time traveler attempting to warn us all, blink twice.

[–] pmjv@lemmy.sdf.org 25 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I blinked twice 2 years ago, but if you really want, I can do it again.

[–] gnemmi@lemmy.sdf.org 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Can confirm. I was there when it happened.

[–] pmjv@lemmy.sdf.org 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think there's even a video of the event somewhere.

Hidden knowledge to the mind of the average denizen of western society.

(sorry, couldn't help it either)

Sorry I missed you. Seems I’m headed in the opposite direction.

This webcomic is one of the few stars that still shine bright enough to light my way, in an otherwise increasingly empty sky

I'm reading this while waiting to pick up food and I think I have a really weird expression on my face now ...

"gods gonna sit this one out"

This series is literally such ART in its truest form, social commentary with hidden meanings from a mysterious (to me atleast) author.
I really would like to see this in a history book one day, but I feel like in reality in the end this series will peacefully rest in the minds of thousands without enough attention to get any proper recognition. Honestly it kinda fits the vibes.

I wonder how many people have taken the time to make electronic go bags because of these comics.
