8 panel comic. 1. Pony tail is looking at a phone and walks up to No hair, who is sitting at a computer. Pony tail says "You know how I blocked all news sites at the start of 2021 to avoid spoilers for Avater 2, and then forgot to start checking them again?" No hair replies "Yeah, we've been meaning to talk to you about that…" 2. Pony tail says "Well, I just checked the news for the first time, and why is the economy tanking?" No hair replies "Uh, the president is mad at other countries and imposed lots of tariffs." 3. Zoom in to Pony tail "What, who's the president now?" From off panel no hair replies "Donald Trump." Pony tail says "…still???" From off panel No hair replies "No, again." 4. Pony tail asks "Ok, fine, what's a tariff? Why is he doing this?" No hair says "You know that pizzeria your company orders from? They don't buy anything from *you*, right?" Pony tail says "Why would they? We do geotechnical landscape surveys."

You refuse to let the delivery driver past your security desk unless they venmo you for an equivalent value of lidar scans" 7. Zoom in to Pony tail who says "Wouldn't they just stop taking our orders?" No hair replies from off panel "Perfect, balance restored!" 8. Pony tail says "Ok, I still want pizza." No hair replies "Can't you just make one? You have all that gear." Pony tail says "I don’t think a pizza made with lidar diodes would be very good." No hair replies "Ugh, why is everyone so picky about toppings?"

🏳️🌈🖖🏽A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.
