[a three-panel comic by Tom Gauld for New Scientist. The top border of the comic shows a two-dimensional, side view pattern of different cars lined up in traffic. The first panel panel shows two people talking. Person A is holding a book and saying, “It’s hard to get excited about these new electric vehicles when I’ve seen much more ambitious possibilities in fiction.” Person B is replying, “Sci-fi fan, huh?”. In the second panel, Person A is looking at their book and going, “uhhh…yeah. Sci-fi.” The third and final panel reveals that Person A is reading a book from the Busytown series, and it depicts a mouse driving a pickle-shaped car, a worm driving an apple-shaped car, and a pig driving a hotdog-shaped car.]

Holy mother of God. Mrs. Butcher is a damn Resident Evil miniboss.

Edit: I missed the obvious pull. She’s clearly a relative of The Butcher from Diablo.

Pigs are aware of how delicious they are.

The scarier thing is that pigs are aware of how delicious we are.

thankfully they are also aware of how delicious potato peels and general kitchen leftovers are, and that rolling in wet mud on a warm summer day is absolute bliss.

I was wondering if indirect cannibalism (human eating pig that ate human) would be dangerous… then I realized indirect cannibalism is always because we all return to the earth as we are fed by it.
