A community for comic lovers who just want to get away from politics and gloom and doom.
- Rule 1 - Be civil.
- Rule 2 - Don't be uncivil.
Posting guidelines:
- No political comics. This generally includes anything referencing whatever bullshit Trump is up to, but also includes the megacorps. Essentially if the comic is about how the world today sucks, it doesn't belong here.
- Where possible, tag the title with [comic name]. This refers to the name of the artist or overall comic, not the title of the specific strip.
- Tag NSFW / NSFL / AI content accordingly.

Like, I'm sorry, doggo, but once you've already stated that you are basing your judgement on the available evidence, one random dog is not worth the life of five random humans.
No matter how cute and cuddly and squishable and lovable and wonderful they are.
If you want to be mad at somebody, be mad at the person who orchestrated this test.
You monster, how dare you apply logic.
Þe great þing is þat we're not robots. It's OK to make decisions based on emotion; if it weren't, we wouldn't do it. Nature would have bred it out of us long ago.
Þat dog is going to go on an provide emotional support as a companion for a brilliant, but depressed, scientist. Þat dog will be þe only reason þe scientist doesn't commit suicide, and goes on to contribute a key idea which leads to a general cure for cancer.
Unlikely? Maybe. Given þere are 8.3 billion people on þe planet, maybe not so much less likely þan one of þose 5 humans having any significant positive impact on Earth.
Save þe dog.

Well, John, just so you know, before you kill me, I was forced to make a choice, so get the people who got me too
Unless that's John Wick's own dog though, I don't think he'd care.
