One thing Garfield doesn’t get enough recognition for is truly bonkers, impressionistic color choices. The sidewalk is pink and yellow. Jon wears purple pants. Every panel is like an Easter basket. It’s often mentioned how the rooms in their house are never any specific consistent color. The switching colors contributes to the ping-pong effect of the rhythm of the dialogue. The final panel here keeps the rhythm going while not being at all logical! Yet it works.

I got one of these UV-C sterilizers, knowing full well I had no way of telling whether it actually did anything or not. (The UV lights don’t even come on unless you zip the lid, so you just have to trust that it even fires.) So, today I’m embarking on an experiment. I cut a strawberry into four pieces and will be testing to see if the UV-C treatment inhibits the growth of mold.

1️⃣ Dosed with UV-C daily.
2️⃣ Dosed once now, not thereafter.
3️⃣ Dosed only if it starts to show mold.
4️⃣ Never dosed (control).

In 6th grade, I ran for student council on a lark. I had only the vaguest idea of what it meant. I then did nothing until, at an assembly, I was informed that I was to make a campaign speech. I got up there and said that student council was probably unable to accomplish anything in terms of "issues facing the school", but that all we could ask of a person was that they try their best in any situation, and I couldn't promise any results except that I would try my best.

Since it's Tax Time and a lot of self-employed or freelance people are feeling the hit of a giant tax bill, I'd like to share a handful of things I've learned about taxes that Independent Businesspeople Might Like To Know. A thread! 1/ First caveat: I don't know what the new Republican tax bill will do to this information. It probably will change it a little bit. Also, I live in California and your area may differ w/r/t local taxes. So please remember to do research or consult a pro for your specific case. 2/
