It's weird that this looks like an edited picture to bypass dupe detection yet it's from the actual Far Side website.

The bottom-left boards of the ship and water touching it have clearly had changes made. Also the three portholes in the middle. And in the sky at the top there's some writing that's mostly been brushed out.

I didn't spend a tremendous amount of time looking, but I found a copy posted to Pinterest that looks like the original and more closely matches Larson's usual style:

I could imagine wanting to remove the water spray droplets in case they wouldn't be clearly printed in a black & white newspaper, but I don't know if the new stuff was ever intended for that and it's also odd that the cheetah in the porthole was also removed.

That's one hell of a URL.

What policies does Steam have that warrant inclusion in this privacy list at all, let alone under the "brainwashed" category?

You would be punctilious in assuming that.

Saved this comment from somewhere, probably Reddit:


I've actually been using the cars analogy for a couple months now and I think it's very fitting. Imagine if you were a mechanic who owned an auto shop and your average customer call went something like this:

Customer: My car isn't working and I need you to fix it immediately, this is an emergency
Mechanic: Alright sir what seems to be the problem?
Customer: I don't know, I tried to use my car on friday and it didn't work, now it's monday and I need to get to work and I can't and this needs to be fixed right now.
Mechanic: Can you start the car? Can you even get into your car? Does it make any sounds when you try to start it? Are all 4 tires there?
Customer: I don't know, I don't know what any of that stuff means, I tried to get to work and it wouldn't let me and you need to fix it now because you changed my oil 6 months ago.
Mechanic: Alright well what kind of car are you driving?
Customer: I don't know, a green one, why does that matter?
Mechanic: Please take a look at the back of your car and see if there are any letters or numbers that would indicate a vehicle model or manufacturer
Customer: Ok, my car is a SV2 87K.
Mechanic: No sir that's your license plate. My records indicate that you drive a Nissan Altima, can you confirm that the key you're using to try and get into this car says Nissan on it?
Customer: My key says Lexus but I don't see how that makes a difference, I've been using this key on this car for years and it's always worked, what did you do to my car?

I actually just finished putting together a jigsaw puzzle featuring this castle a couple days ago! It was missing a piece but fortunately not in a super distracting area :)

That engine is definitely woke. I had 269 hits when I searched for "trans" in my car's manual!
