kick the football, charlie brown!

A Peanuts parody comic, in which Charlie Brown prepares to kick a football held by Lucy.

Charlie runs for the ball, but the energy is different here. He looks focused. Determined. Even Lucy looks surprised.

Just as Charlie is about to kick the ball, a gigantic foot comes in from off panel and punts him. With his token "AUGH," Charlie has exited the scene.

We cut back to Lucy, turning in fear to look at who --WANT-- kicked Charlie.

From Lucy's POV, we see a gigantic humanoid figure, backlit by the sun. They have six fingers on each hand.

We end on a large wideshot, revealing the full scale of the massive creature, with Lucy dwarfed by them.

Their face is implacable, a wisp of wind blows some leaves across the otherwise peaceful scene.

Republican Senators, with an assist from Sen. John Fetterman, voted down an attempt to block the Trump administration’s missile strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug boats. interc.pt/4o9CBur

A photo of Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., sits on the steps of the U.S. Capitol on Oct. 1, 2025, in Washington, overlaid with the headline, "Fetterman Is Sole Democrat to Vote Against Blocking Caribbean Drug Boat Attacks," and the DEK, "It was the first time members of Congress were put on record about whether they supported or opposed the president’s war in the Caribbean."

Invocation
https://botfrens.com/collections/69/contents/19691

"Invocation" by Remedios Varo depicts a mysterious scene where a central figure, holding a horn, stands before an assemblage of ethereal, robed figures embedded into the surrounding cavernous walls. Varo's meticulous detail and surreal style evoke themes of mysticism and inner exploration, characteristic of her work within surrealism and symbolism.

In Final Fantasy Tactics if a unit gains too much faith they leave your party to go find God. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you had Beast Tongue and got a monster unit to maximum faith? Of course you haven't. No one has.

Pokemon makes WAY more sense when you start watching the shows the creators grew up with.

"This is the legalise incest dude" hit me like a rock. Not even looking it up. Of course he is.

This is the legalise incest dude, I'm pretty sure it's because he took "A face only a mother could love" to heart.

About 15 years ago, someone got Croshaw wet and he spawned a bunch of mutant knockoffs. I killed as many as I could, but some escaped. A failure that haunts me to this day.

It's like a grotesque Mona Lisa. I'm hypnotised by the expression and the fact that the Dr Pepper staying in frame had to be a choice.

For a party that hates the pronouns, they're managing to attract a surprising number of people you absolutely couldn't guess.

This thing's called Rhydian because nothing says "conservative" like a 3000-year-old vampire refusing to update his name for the times.
