'Baffling Capitulation to Wall Street': Harris Breaks With Biden on Capital Gains Tax
"Harris seems to be making a policy choice based on the disproven, failed ideology of trickle-down economics, and giving petulant billionaires a gift in the process," said one progressive advocacy group.

How the World Works
A four-panel comic strip by War and Peas. Panel 1: A tree, depicted with a face and carrying a bag, walks on a path towards a university building. The text above reads, "Tree wanted to learn how the world works." Panel 2: The tree is in a classroom, looking shocked as a teacher points to a blackboard that reads "TREES = PAPER," accompanied by simple drawings of a tree, an axe, and a paper sheet. The word "Gasp" is shown near the tree. Panel 3: The tree sits among other students in a lecture hall, still looking shocked. One student tears a piece of paper from a notebook with a "RRRIP" sound, while the tree exclaims "Gasp." Panel 4: The tree is outside the classroom, looking even more shocked. Two students walk by, one saying, "We're out of toilet paper." The tree has the word "GASP" near it.

Trees are poems, that earth writes upon the sky. We fell them down and turn them into paper that we may record our emptiness.

We got several requests by our readers to bring back the vampire girlfriend from an earlier strip. So here she is 😎😎
This comic strip from "War and Peas" consists of four panels: In the first panel, a woman with pale blue skin and long hair stands at a window and gazes out at a landscape with mountains and a full moon. She says, "There's nothing quite as beautiful as a full moon over the mountains." In the second panel, a witch with a black hat leans out of an adjacent window and replies, "I could think of something." In the third panel, the blue-skinned woman blushes, looks flattered, and says, "Aww... hihi. You're sweet." In the final panel, the witch, with a sinister smile, says, "The terror in the eyes of a man begging for mercy when his life is in your hands!" The blue-skinned woman looks taken aback and responds, "Ookay." The comic concludes with the title "War and Peas" at the bottom.

Shows by Desilu Productions were recorded on film. That made many years of reruns with great visual quality possible. I loved Lucy and Desi for that. Few other early television productions survived once professional videotape became popular.
