Brazilian bars like this sometimes have whimsical illustrations on their walls. This place is playing on the fact that it’s barely anything more than a watering hole, selling cheap alcohol for the locals to inebriate themselves with.

Maybe it’s a vineyard from really far away.

I think it’s actually pretty neat. The aquariums are cool. The restaurant at the top has good catfish and a great view. I wanted to sleep a night at the hotel just to see what it’s like. It’s all swamp cabin themed.

Caption this picture!

I’ll go first: “You better not be taking pictures of me topless!”

All the Linux distributions on the way to Mozilla’s gulag now.

Ding ding ding!

Unsubscribing from comic strips did the trick a couple days ago, thanks! And just now I’ve subscribed back and everything is normal. So feel free to subscribe again.

Letting you know I no longer see the issue. Thanks, Sal!

Close, but no cigar

Out of Rohrbacherstrasse, I could pronounce Ro, ba, and strasse. German has like 5 different R sounds and I can pronounce 2 of them. And yet most of you can’t pronounce the vibrating R in my name.

And I hate English’s TH as well, both sounds of it, and especially the insistence in using it next to S. How am I supposed to pronounce “clothes” with any grace or dignity left?

No, my mother tongue isn’t Germanic, but Celtic-Latin with a lot of Banto and Tupi thrown in for mellowing.

So they can stop receiving that toxic narrative and start receiving a new, positive narrative?

German pronunciation rules are awesome. If only you could get rid of some of your consonants, I’d be able to pronounce any German word.

Like, how THE FSCK would I know that a geoduck is pronounced gooey-duck? Also geo-duck sounds like a Pokémon, so that’s gotta be right.

No, they’re not. Unless you like making messes. Then they’re right up your alley.

Close enough.

That’s a lot of sandcasters. Beautiful piece.

I’d like to see such a map for mass shootings in the U.S.

Bravo.

Thanks for all your work keeping the lights on, Sal!
