Hello fellow Far Side fans!
About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.
The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side
Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!

Note taken! When I think about the doomer attitude, I really feel it depresses people. I'm more of an optimistic mind, or if all goes to hell, yeah let's have cheese and party!
And yeah that's me, I had a hard time (found out I'm allergic to nuts, but before that I was crazy tired for years, on and off, and that had some impact on my life to say the least) but since the start of the summer I'm back (burning in the french heat waves 🥵) ! I also picked up painting so I'm more of a Renoir guy than Moebuys dud nowadays I guess. Giraud still rocks though 😋!
You did a Tintin spin off right? Angered some anti-AI luddites IIRC, what are you up to now?
Yeah, I feel that. Life is short, and I don't see the point in being gloomy if one can possibly help it.
Oh, nice. I do remember you sharing some art samples a couple years ago.
Haha, I did that once and only once, when I was discovering the possibilities of ChatGPT. I learned a lesson about sharing, but I do still use GPT all the time as an information / lookup assistant.
Anyway, I'm still curating EGN. Still going strong after 3+yrs...
