Just to add another layer to this. I uploaded the image to the AI and asked what was funny. It insists the snake is wrapped around the telephone pole, the fence or the man’s waste.
I had no idea, so i asked my AI overlord to explain the joke to me.
“Ah, that sounds like a classic Gary Larson twist! Without seeing the specific comic, I can offer a general interpretation of what the humor might be in a Far Side comic featuring a lost 30-foot long brown snake named Ginger.
The humor here likely lies in the absurdity and contrast of the situation. On one hand, you have a potentially menacing, large snake, which people would typically find intimidating or even frightening. On the other hand, it’s being treated as if it’s a harmless, lost pet with a cute, non-threatening name like “Ginger.” This juxtaposition of a dangerous creature being treated in a domestic, almost tender manner is a common type of humor found in Far Side comics. It plays on our expectations — you’d expect a lost pet poster for a small dog or cat, not a huge snake!
The comic might also be playing with the irony of how a 30-foot long snake could possibly be “lost” given its size, making it a humorous commentary on how we sometimes overlook the obvious.
Far Side comics often have these layers of humor, where the situation is exaggerated or presented in a way that’s contrary to what we’d expect in reality”.
Adultificaton is a common racial bias where people see black children as older than they are, it results in a number of problems for those children.
I have fallen for this bias, as a largely unconscious bias we all can fall for it. I think one of the things we can do is self check when it happens to us and point it out when others perpetuate it.
Alright, sure. But that’s still just him being not just willing, but actively trying, to strip your human rights away for this magic economy and you rationalizing his actions as an acceptable compromise.
I would see that as a clear example of disrespect and disregard for my well being and the well being of people who I care about.
This isn’t about finding someone just like you to love, far from it, compromise is normal and differences between people in love are wonderful. What this is about, for me anyway, is that I would draw the line at someone who is actively supporting the deterioration of my human rights regardless of how many dishes they do.
