I don't understand Rick's sarcasm toward Jeff's easy, ad-free monetization fix for Rick's (previously unremunerated) blog content. For many retirees and freelance writers, a starting rate of $70-$100/month, steady income, with no extra effort, really would be a game-changer! Jeff is one of the most underappreciated characters in the strip. Unless I'm looking at it from the wrong perspective: is the joke, "Boomers are rich, entitled, and ungrateful"? 

In addition to being the source of Today's SayWhat? comment, Sen. Ron Johnson has now also been quoted as saying, at a town hall meeting, "Standard gargle, mouthwash, has been proven to kill the Coronavirus." Johnson and Johnson (makers of Listerine mouthwash) were quick to respond. Perhaps Sen. Johnson should go back to pushing Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin?

Granted, I agree with Mike's self-assessment as a "moderate Republican." Trouble is, in vivo, merely right-leaning tuskers have been in short supply. From Joe McCarthy to Nixon/Agnew to Ronald "Trees Pollute" Reagan to George 'WMD' Bush, the once (arguably) moderately-right-leaning party of Ike has paved the way for the fascistic superspreader who barges in (inappropriately) stage left. Pity.

Today's strip is a riot (or maybe an insurrection). Laughing clear to my toenails!

Regarding the December 2nd "Say What": Tucker Carlson is just mad that Trump didn't consider him important or smart enough to consult about the January 6th coup attempt.

Honestly, if the anti-vax MAGA-hatters were only killing themselves, I'd be okay with that. The problem to me is that they endanger the innocent and exhaust the dedicated with their foolishness.

Re today's "Say What." I see a huge marketing opportunity for gear displaying the slogan "Every 30 Days." Party on, 'Boys.

SO many factual errors in today's strip. The Roswell aliens were greys, not greens, the flat earth has the North Pole in the centre, and the lizard people in the Deep State are responsible for suppressing the facts about alien visitations so only true Americans are able to spread the truthiness. Wake up sheeple!

Today's strip is one of my favourite Doonesburys.

Here's my take on the perplexing "Retirees" comic of last Sunday. My parents are Boomers in their 70s. Like the retirees in that strip, they enjoy academic research, community meetings, getting together with friends, and staying busy. But certain of their friends are gone. And with them, their great stories, the fun cocktails they knew how to mix, the wisdom of their career experiences, their wonderful community volunteerism...all that they gave and shared has gone. Because they have died. Because COVID-19, loneliness, accidents, and other causes have taken them away, one by one. As Johnny Cash sang so movingly as he and his beloved June neared the end of their road, "Everyone I know goes away in the end." The strip brought me to tears.

Re today's Say What? quote: I would love to hear her thoughts on Voter ID.

Another too-hard-to-make-up 'SAY WHAT?' this morning. ("Here we are. Didn't even look at my fake [vaccine] card lol...Let's just be clear. Asking to see your ID is against everything American." -- former radio host Kimberly Ray, posting from Bills-Dolphins game)  A quick search further and I find this breaking news story just nine minutes old. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hey! I'm male, retired, and still very actively doing work-related stuff.

The Halloween strip was the most thought-provoking edition of Doonesbury...perhaps ever. I would hope there would be much discussion about its meaning. Are men disappearing, dying, irrelevant, or just becoming monosyllabic; especially compared to the dynamic lives and communities of women? 

Sunday's strip reminded me of the historical civic virtue of elders -- experienced, involved, steady with age, now done with commerce and child rearing -- stepping up to donate their now-freer time for the commonweal. Kudos to the women. 

Sunday's strip about the real lives of retired house husbands is lovely. Thank you.

Regarding last Sunday's strip, I haven't been this confused about the meaning or intent of a comic strip since Gary Larson's infamous Far Side "Cow Tools" panel 30 years ago. Can someone please help me understand? (BTW, I'm a Boomer retiree - may be that's the problem here?)

Today's strip on retirees terrified millions of Boomers. No wonder you ran it on Halloween.

Re: The Sunday 10/24/21 "Say What?": It is easier for an octopus-like creature to pass through a hypodermic needle than it is for an anti-vaxer to admit that she or he is wrong.

How fortunate we are, in the midst of these nightmare times, that you bring us these brand new Sunday comics every week! Thank you!!
