IMO posts like this are great. It's way better to post stuff you want to see than complain about what's getting posted. It's also how we get good memes and we could use a few more beyond beans and Nicole.
I doubt a temporary email address would make a difference. I created my account a while back when there was a big backlog and it took a while. There might still periodically be backlogs, because the dev has his hands full with PixelFed. If you don't have an account in a few days, trying joining the Matrix or the Discord (which I can't find the link to again but you can find somewhere)

It was a fan theory that was actually confirmed IIRC, but the Seanchan drawl is equivalent to a Texan accent.
Loosely based on real events, but yep!
Can't tell if your comment is questioning what the joke is or if it's a commentary, but if anyone isn't getting the joke, it's a play on this:
Thanks for sharing, I like it!

Comics are posted daily to thefarside.com, which doesn't give any indication of what date they were originally run in newspapers. The title is today because the comics were posted to the site today
Huh. I was wondering if spiders would still eat them, and apparently some spiders are known to avoid them:
An invasive species of spider from Asia doesn't eat them, and even frees them when caught, but native spiders don't mind at all:
So it turns out that our native North American spiders will gladly eat monarchs, but yet the invasive spider from east Asia will not? Hmm...This is certainly a head-scratcher. It's almost as if the native spiders have somehow learned "how" to eat the toxic monarchs, perhaps in the same way that some birds have - i.e. by only eating the body parts that don't have the cardenolides. Just guessing here.
One other cool thing we learned is that the jorΕ spiders seem to have the ability to detect the monarchs' distastefulness even without physically tasting them!
Trying it out for today's comics, lemme know if that's better
Close enough, you're cool. Here's the actual list though (wiki link):

- Freedom 1: The freedom to study how the program works, and change it to make it do what you wish.
- Freedom 2: The freedom to redistribute and make copies so you can help your neighbor.
- Freedom 3: The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements (and modified versions in general) to the public, so that the whole community benefits.
