I read something just the other day about how weird and creepy Cerebus became later in the run.

The creator eventually just started using the character as a mouthpiece for misogynist complaints that developed into what he seemed to believe was a new religious revelation (one associating everything evil with women or homosexuals and everything good with bitter dudes who draw cartoon aardvarks).

None of this was parody, and he became increasingly alienated and isolated from his friends and the comics industry.

I never finished reading the series but when I bailed in the mid'90s Dave Sim was already a MRA before the term existed.

I don't even want to think about what he must be up to now.

Compared to what we're faced with right now, he did.

Anytime I feel down now, I get to chuckle a little at Trump being given the dead-last slot in "Presidential Greatness" by over a hundred and fifty people who are theoretically qualified to judge such things. 45 out of 45. I hope someone showed him that. The history he's creating is already doing him justice.

Does Trump have a dog? I just watched a Norm McDonald special where he pointed out that Hitler's dog thought Hitler was the greatest man in the world.

Yeah Trump doesn't strike me as a pet guy. He's incapable of showing love or compassion for another living thing, and the pet would only serve to take attention away from himself.

"The man who wrote the explosive book about the Trump White House @MichaelWolffNYC joined @BenFordham this morning. But unfortunately, our interview was cut short due to 'technical difficulties'. It's a shame we didn't get to hear the answer to that final question... #9Today"



"An update on our interview with Michael Wolff earlier this morning. This footage from our London studio reveals that there were no audio problems and Wolff could clearly hear @BenFordham's question!"

More fake news from the Trump tell all book?

While it wouldn't surprise me if Wolff was just trying to dodge the question, I'm not sure what that London video "proves". Having worked in video production, there's lots of things that could potentially end up going sideways during an interview. What people in the control booth hear has nothing to do with what the subject may or may not be hearing through their earpiece.

That said, the fact that he waits until the host stops talking to say "I can't hear you" is a pretty good indicator that he's full of shit.

I don't trust Wolff all that far, but isn't it possible that he could have heard that someone was speaking but not be able to make it out? That would explain waiting for the pause to say that he didn't get it.

We've all done this on a bad phone connection, haven't we? Just an hour ago I threw away an earphone that gave me intermittent low-sound/static.
