I know far side isn't exactly political, but I'm an arts guy so I'll say that absurdism is an inherently political choice.

They don't have to be old school either, but since the form has mostly fallen out of favour, the golden era of the top quality stuff is in the past.

I just love reading funny little cartoons. I guess they were the precursor to memes. I don't even care if they're lib or right wing bullshit, I recently read a collection of Pat Oliphant's work, and even though most of it wasn't very politically accurate, nor was it particularly funny, it was still enjoyed ironically.

Any picks?

lol, the age of total homogeneity is underway

the age of endless simulation

it's even in communism colours

there's got to be old propaganda with maos head on a train

wholly unsurprising

Struggle session over MOTY

'An advertisement warning that U.S. fighter jets were ready to respond to provocations showed up on a dating app in Lebanon.

The warning appeared online last week in Arabic beneath pictures of U.S. warplanes: “Do not take up arms against the United States or its partners,” it said, noting that America “will protect its partners in the face of threats from the Iranian regime and its proxies.”

And to underscore the message: Central Command is “fully prepared” and ready to employ F-16 and A-10 aircraft “currently in the region.”

Séamus Malekafzali, a freelance journalist based in Lebanon, encountered Tinder advertisements purportedly from U.S. Central Command warning against joining Iranian-backed militants on Aug. 22. This ad was linked to a Central Command post on X, Malekafzali said.

Similar story all over Britain. Fuck sake.

Do I not get it or something?

It just felt like an individualist white middle class mans fantasy of how he'd totally outgrind and outsmart the prison system by doing epic taxes and being a good person

just befriend the prison guards!

play beautiful cultured classical music to these poor barbarous inmates as an act of # la resistance

then, totally own the corrupt system by exposing them to newspapers... the police and judicial system are otherwise perfect so the prison commissioner will kill himself rather than face the HARSH HARSH CONSEQUENCES that one could receive in America for money laundering... notwithstanding that the money laundering is chump change in comparison to the slave wage labour that the inmates are made to perform...

Morgan Freeman speaks in hope platitudes for the entire movie

Is this movie not just about how all you need to do is grin and grind to escape your hellish life?

Then people jerk it off for 'showing the humanity of prisoners for the first time EVER in cinema and not treating prison rape as a joke' - surely you can only find such a thing to be true if you have only ever seen about 5 movies in your life? Or is that just a pure indictment of the Hollywood system - that it only ever makes garbage visible?

Am I being cynical? Was I just in a bad mood?

Utterly cheesy and without charm.

• Chair of Hunting Kind says he has built legal case to obtain same protection as Roma and LGBTQ+ people. They have prepared a legal case to try to prove that hunters are an ethnic minority whose hunts should be protected under equality laws.

• Ed Swales, the chair of Hunting Kind, claims he has been advised by a leading human rights lawyer that hunters unequivocally qualify for legal protection under the UK Equality Act 2010.

• Speaking to the FieldsportsChannel podcast, Swales said: “The qualifications of an ethnic group, there are five of them, and we hit everyone straight in the bullseye.”
