In California, thieves have three choices: They can go to prison, Sacramento, or Washington D.C.

I had a really bad day. First, my ex was run over by a bus. Then I got fired from my job as a bus driver. Bummer.

AWwwww! ❤💖💞😥 Adopt a rescue and get your pets spayed and neutered. So many unwanted animals out there both cats and dogs. (and probably loads of birds and other species too). 😦

Almost all of ours have been rescues. My kids were always bringing home mangy little strays, knowing that I was too much of a softie to say “no” when they asked if they could keep them.

Mimes are a common trope for cartoonists — likewise matreshkas, piñatas, potato heads, crash test dummies, clowns, pirates, and cavemen. Cartoonists, like comedians, have fallen on lean times, as the list of things they can joke about keeps shrinking… but at least for the moment you can still joke about mimes etc. without all heck breaking loose.

“Mimes are a common trope for cartoonists” — cartoonists, yeah, and mimes are ready targets in any other comedic form. Well, not radio.
“Anthropomorphism” of critters in comics is understood – Micky’s a Person but Pluto is an animal – don’t think about it too hard.
You found two comics which “cross the beams” of those two tropes. “Invisible crate” was a good riff on a common mime routine. “Going for a ride” was a great dog-mime routine. 😜
Thanks for all the smiles every week.
