SUPERSEDING UPDATE

Sorry there’s no new comic this week! I was supposed to finish it today (Wednesday, the day of Odin), but multiple days of little sleep have left me unable to draw more good lines than lines I have to fix over and over again. This is honestly why my output has been so slow this year, and I haven’t gotten any feedback from my sleep study yet. I’m left to surmise that my sleep problems are caused by intrinsic memories left over by my cave-dwelling ancestors being afraid of saber-toothed tigers. Could YOU sleep if you knew there were saber-toothed tigers around, ready to challenge you to a fencing match to the death when you had no sword, nor sword-teeth?

I have small teeth, probably because they’re from the 1980s and were afraid to grow too big, lest they become a target in a nuclear war. But I grew up five miles south of Akron, Ohio, teeth! That’s the rubber capital of the world! We were gonna die regardless.

Should teeth be taught about the nitty-gritty of nuclear war? Obviously yes. Do I have a second question that will counter the first by leveraging its rhetoric against itself? Obviously no.

 

UPDATE

For anyone wondering, the Great November Internal Server Error occurred because I switched from a bank to a credit union in the spring, but I didn’t let my web host know about it because it’s run by conniving lizard people. Probably.
