OK, sorry, it’s very funny that Wilbur’s instinct upon stumbling onto this perfectly insane scene is to address not Belle, his girlfriend/sex partner/whatever who is capable of understanding and responding to normal human speech, but rather his fish, who is not. I guess he really does love that fish and/or is untethered from reality, ha ha! Speaking of which, check out those pinprick constricted pupils on Belle. Clearly she was neither kissing nor preparing to eat Willa, but was rather somehow getting high from interacting with the fish, using some advanced technique currently known only to Florida men and women.

Ha ha, it’s funny because the Bumsteads are in a financially desperate state, and Dagwood has turned to gambling in a last-ditch effort to pay the family bills!

Family Circus, 5/11/25

My favorite part of this strip about a husband taking exactly one day to help with the domestic labor his wife does all year is how, in Thel’s fantasy, Big Daddy Keane is perusing an 8 1/2 by 11 piece of paper with “PIZZA TO GO” written on it and smiling warmly. “Pizza? To go? Restaurant food, available to take back to my own home? I guess I was wrong when I said that these Italians had nothing to contribute to American culture.”

My least favorite part of this strip about a husband taking exactly one day to help with the domestic labor their wife does all year telling his wife she can put off her typical domestic labor until tomorrow is how the Activity Police officer has a gun on his belt. That undone laundry basket is going to get done, and we can do it the easy way, or the hard way.

Six Chix and Blondie, 5/3/25

We have I think pretty conclusively established that the Blondie team mines National Day Calendar dot com when they need an inspiration or a peg for any given day’s strip. That’s why I regret to inform you that, while Six Chix was happy to riff on the very real and very cool holiday of National Paranormal Day, which is today, Blondie just gave us one of the most vapid and toothless “Ha ha, you know what sure are crazy, is current events! I’ll be giving you no further details on that” strips I’ve ever seen. Today could’ve been the day we saw Dagwood eat a bowl of chili so hot that he gains the Sight and can see through the veil into the next world! Instead we get this bullshit!

Hmm, that crooked smirk … that domineering attitude … is bad girl Kelly back? Is bad girl Kelly going to show up at Niki’s to formally inform him that he was dumped approximately six weeks ago, with her new tall boyfriend in tow? This is a groove that I am very excited to see her get back!
