By the time I got back from walking my youngest to preschool it was time to turn around and go get her1. So now she’s getting an extra episode of Daniel Tiger while I put together this package of
COMICS
all for you. So, as you should every single day, whisper a word of thanks to Mr. Rogers and his legacy of kindness and weird puppets.

Whew. Berbine doesn’t mess around.
I’m moving a little closer towards test-driving a new format for this, but I haven’t had a ton of time, what with moving and having to reevaluate my purpose in life2. But I’m still working on it, slowly but surely. I'll let you know so you can tell me if I'm wasting my time. I mean, I'm already wasting my time, but, you know, if it’s even MORE.
Uh oh. Daniel Tiger is over. Gotta run.
I’ll be back, when the WEEK is new, and I’ll have more COMICS for you. And you’ll have things you’ll want to COMMENT about. I. Will. Too.
Bye neighbor.

I exaggerate! But only a little. Also, I’m still grateful. What’s a word for being both grumpy about something and still grateful? Gratepy? Thanks-grumpish? Privileged?? Needs some workshopping, but that’s my main emotion these days.
We have to actually PAY for our housing now, like the rest of you plebeians! So I’ve applied for a job and there’s every indication I might actually have to GET one. I KNOW.
