Niece is left handed to emphasize how sinister she is

[–] don@lemm.ee 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I wonder if her sinister nature affects her dexterity.

[–] jungekatz@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So much so that the french call it gauche ?

[–] don@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Maybe even Rive Gauch, depending on her artistic preferences.

I unironically love sad girl books

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'm not big on Sad Girl books, but it's a genre of music I listen to quite a lot.

[–] Chapo0114@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Sad Girl music like Daughter and Julien Baker?

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Daughter is new to me, but I love some Baker. Apes of the State, Boygenius, Billie Eyelash are a whole bunch of great musicians, imo.

[–] Chapo0114@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Youth by Daughter is a great taste of their style. Love Boygenius and like Billie, will have to give Apes of the State a listen.

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks for the rec on Daughter. It's amazing stuff and I'm honestly amazed I somehow missed it.

[–] Chapo0114@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

Apes of the State have a cool sound, will have to dig more into them.

[–] JuneFall@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is there some emotional opposite of that, too, you know of?

Like happy people?

[–] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

I think Kero Kero Bonito's Bonito Generation fits the bill! "Try Me" is one of my go-to pick-me-up songs, "Heard a Song" is good vibes, and "Break" is maximum comfy.

Looks like this cishet is ending on a Hot Girl Summer.

[–] aebletrae@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Even though I know incongruity is a part of these things, the combination of small roof and gable end—making the house look British—with an AC unit labelled as "trusty"—implying a long history—bothers me. Does anywhere else have houses like this?

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This looks like a yoloswag or whatever his name is comic

[–] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 27 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Isn't that comic heavily influenced by Kelly comics?

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Could be, I just see Kelly and Yoloswag in passing, not huge into political cartoons anymore. I always thought they were riffing on Garrison, but this feels like Garrison anyways

[–] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

They're both riffing in Garrison for sure, but Kelly comics satirizing conservative political cartoons actually predates Ben Garrison. Seems the Onion has been publishing them since 2006

[–] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Kelly's shtick is a satire of political cartoonists in general, who as a group lean right. I'd say Garrison's idiosyncrasies don't have all that much influence. Even the excessive labelling is just a genre trope.

[–] ZoomeristLeninist@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

naw they’re riffing on garrison. all Kelly comics are exaggerated conservative takes for satire

e: atp not much exaggeration is needed, so it sometimes comes off as genuine

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

Ok so this is a bit that makes sense lol, this comic was so fucking funny I had a hard time believing it was genuine.
