Holy **** thought I'm sitting here thinking about Calvin and Hobbes is the most important pop culture thing of my entire life and trying not to heave into my backyard as if that somehow won't be relevant but of course Calvin would be an alcoholic.

"Talk show hosts, political candidates, news programs, special interest groups... they all become successful by reducing debates to the level of shouted rage. Nothing gets solved, but we're all entertained."

How the **** can this **** continue when Calvin and Hobbes so succinctly made it all so stupid? Cause we really are so stupid I suppose.

^Love Calvin and Hobbes. I read all of those strips countless times as a kid. Some of it went over my head back then.

Unrelated, I came here to post this article about mind bending infinite universe stuff:

C&H is iconic indeed. Taught me as a kid not to have faith in adults and that some things are unjust and dont make sense and never will.

Taught me that being an abrasive, narcissistic weirdo makes you vastly more cool than all those milquetoast normies. I'm honestly not sure how my self-perception would have evolved without Calvin & Hobbes giving me a rare sense of validation.

Yeah, I've always loved Calvin and Hobbes. It's one of the biggest instances of comedy being a lot smarter than people give it credit for, while also able to simply just be funny.

I'll be honest I stared at that a good thirty seconds but my mistrust of Frown won't let me believe him.
