A piquant comic by Kris Straub

I wrote a column for the Indy this morning and 1000 words of fiction, as one does, and now I face a choice. I can either write a whole blog post for you good people, or I can go on a hike with my brother. I think you know from this preamble which I have chosen. There is no Combat! blog today, because I will be alone with my thoughts again soon enough. While I retreat to lived experience, how about you enjoy the timely comic strip above? I think it’s more common—and perhaps stronger—as only the first three panels, which expose the essential absurdity of a lately popular argument. Those of us who still log in to Facebook occasionally may find it useful. We’ll be back tomorrow, probably, with something more substantive.

Combat! blog is free. Why not share it?
