In all sincerity, I would've never guessed it was a nazi tattoo. I didn't even know about the totenkopf until the Platner headlines started. It really did look like a generic skull tattoo to me . Maybe that speaks to history illiteracy in the US, but it's pretty damn plausible he had no clue imo. The fact that he immediately got it covered is also strong argument for it.

Also the last panel is a reference to this memeToo many bananas at conveyor belt at Walmart, cashier with a comically shocked expression

This is one of my favorite comics of all time, so lemme do my best to explain why I love it so much. Everything but the last panel sets up this absurdist world like an epic adventure movie. The "camera angles" mimic something like Bladerunner 2049, just very cinematic, all about a hyper intelligent ape trying to find himself and see true freedom. The panels feel very intentionally drawn to imitate a very serious drama film, taking itself very seriously as the story unfolds.

And then the last panel is the rugpull / punch line. Despite the way it's trying to make you think that this is a serious story of discovery and freedom, it turns out all the monkey wanted all along was a bunch of bananas. The journey from silly -> serious -> even sillier is just chefs kiss hilarious to me.

I'm pretty sure yes, if you use ddg news there'll be a lot of results from MSN, owned by Microsoft

There were reports last month of Navy members getting steak and lobster, which is usually a pizza index type notifier that war is about to happen. With over a million people in the US armed forces, there's things I'm a lot more pissed off about then them having a fancy meal

 

What are some of the best alternatives out there to Google Docs and other cloud based productivity software?

I've heard of CognitoForms as alternative to Google Forms, does anyone have any experience with it?
