An homage to a panel from the Achewood web comic. Phillipe, a young and eager otter, who is wearing a shirt and tie and a helmet for some reason, is happily singing a song to himself as follows:
Born... in the USA! I went to school and I got an... A!
I ate a hamburger and said hooray!
Maybe it will happen today!
The final line is obviously my addition. The art was redrawn by me and is not just a copy of the original panel. Done in black lines and halftone shading on a toned paper background.
You do not need to trouble Chris Onstad about this.

Crenshaw occasionally tried to speak to the conductor about the runaway train. But having bought a ticket, he was always reluctant to either jump off or do anything that would actually slow it down.

Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas
Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...
DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

The slurs somehow have more agency than the Republicans.
The “NYT actually assigns agency to the people doing the thing” headline challenge remains unwon.

One million percent. Access junkies that don't understand technology AT ALL were easily snowed by hucksters. Silicon Valley used to make cool shit but once "the internet" blew up, big papers and pubs hired dopes who could write flowery sentences but didn't know jack shit to cover the scene

Wemby and Fox this time. Just such a deep squad. The NBA was too big for Carter Bryant for like 3 weeks and now the kid just out there having a blast.

These are the 4 things AI can do well:
•Clean up your email inbox (badly)
•Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party
•Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself
•Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday
You can see why we need to base our economy around it

Maybe this is just me, but I kind of think massive military operations, in which we're demanding unconditional surrender as the outcome, probably should be authorized by Congress.

US Employers Unexpectedly Cut Jobs, Unemployment Rises
February data call labor market stabilization narrative into question
Congrats to everyone who voted for Trump and a Republican Congress "for the economy." This is what you get, a sputtering job creation engine that can't make progress like before and keeps rolling backwards.
