It was more of a knock off of power rangers if anything. (I think. Obviously it's been a long time.)

I heard buying local is fine so we got some sandwiches from a local restaurant, but other than that, we just stayed in. So success on our parts I think!

Thought I went colour blind for a second

Haven't unlocked that part of the shop yet

Let's try to spread messages of how, then. There are a lot of ways!

My tact is going to be to get much more involved in my local politics and my community. I'm going to start going to city council meetings. I'm going to keep an eye on the various committees if I can. These meetings are all open to the public. I never once went, but I will now, so that I can make sure my voice is heard, where I feel it needs to be raised. Later on, once I get a better grasp of who does what in my city, I'm going to see about trying to encourage other people to communicate with our mayor. Maybe let my neighbors know I'm willing to talk on their behalf.

I'm also hopeful this will help me understand things better to start communicating with my governor, senators, house rep better. I'm sad to say I'm pretty ignorant on the chain of command at a local level. I want to fix that. If my mayor reports to my governor, and I establish that rapport, I can let her know that she should be leaning on the governor on policies that I don't like. And up the chain it goes.

It's absolutely miniscule. It affects nothing on a federal level. But it's where my personal impact will be strongest. I can do my best to try and ensure my city is a good one and hopefully encourage other people to be involved too.

I think when we die, we rejoin the essential je ne sais quoi of what makes reality what it is. It wouldn't surprise me if that essence is reused in other things. It won't be me, as I am now. It'll be parts of me and parts of everything else, making something entirely new.

You're welcome, thank you for being receptive! I did like the style of the comic overall!

Font's a touch hard to read, FYI.

I'm guessing a humorous exaggeration? I've accidentally cut bread off a loaf into weirdly thin/wedge slices but bagels I tend to nail pretty consistently.

Happy to report that Zip has been quite enjoyable.

I hold your power in awe. I have the exact opposite of this. I cannot picture spatial dimensions in my head at all.

Haha was about to say the same thing, this image never fails to evoke anger wherever it goes.

Does make me wonder how many people are trying to affect local change. That's not going to get notice by anyone online, after all.
