I work for this scientist... I dig up graves, fetch brains, mop the floor-general stuff... you wanna see the lab?
blah blah blah... and you?
Looks like they updated the comic at some point to make it more clear. Today's post has a little strip of white that's not there in the original.

A few days after this cartoon was published, I started getting a considerable amount of reaction from people who enjoyed it. But I found it interesting that, without exception, they were enjoying it from a different standpoint from the one I had intended. If you look at the enlargement of the two little calves, you'll see that one of them is doing the old hoof-behind-the-head trick to its sibling. Apparently, it was just too subtle in the original. (In fact, it sort of looks like the one calf is just wearing a ribbon.) I wish now I had developed this into a series of places the Holsteins had visited. ("The Holsteins visit Three Mile Island" would have been interesting.)
For anyone that's unaware, Cyanide & Happiness does a lot of shorts in addition to their webcomics. For some period of time (maybe the whole month of June?), they're doing daily shorts of Blue vs Green:

Our boys Blue and Green are gonna be duking it out in a new animation EVERY DAY. Whose side are you on?
The creators use this picture on a lot of other sites:
The link wasn't working for me, it seems PieFed doesn't like capitalization differences in the links? Lemmy ignores capitalization. This works, at any rate:
I don't see the new post on my instance at https://discuss.online/c/[email protected], you might want to check that it's federating properly. I've heard that recreating communities like that can make things get into a weird state.

"Look at that... Man, in our day, Bernie, we could skeletonize a cow in less than two minutes."
Transcript (commentary):
Just about every time I've heard or read anything about piranhas (as you might imagine, I'm drawn to the subject), it's always mentioned how quickly a school of them can skeletonize a cow. I'm not sure why a cow is always the standard unit of measurement for this sort of thing, but pondering it eventually led to this cartoon.
I found out that geese will eat cottonwood fluff, as pictured. At least that goose does, maybe it's bullied by the other geese for being weird. It doesn't seem like it would have any nutrients, but what do I know, I'm not a goose π€·
Neat, are you involved in activitypub.rocks? What sort of updates can we look forward to?
The biggest reason is that @[email protected] runs it really well. It's stable, updated frequently as Lemmy is updated, and he's really responsive to issues like trouble uploading images. I'm also a Lemmy admin on here, and since lemm.ee is going down in large part because of not enough admins, I think it's good to rehome the community to somewhere that I can help fix that issue if it crops up again.
Yeah, it's a moth. I'm sure there's some other small flying insect attracted to lamps that starts with "M", but The Far Side was written with your average newspaper reader in mind so generally isn't that obscure
