Maybe your renderer?
Try this:

It would be technically more accurate if they’d landed on top of a 200-foot-high layer of dead tree trunks, but that would be pretty tough to draw in cartoon style.
Wouldn’t it be even more accurate if it was a bunch of algae and aquatic plant life?
It would be even more accurate than that if they landed right next to an oil well.
If they want coal, yeah

Isn’t that the species that they keep flipping in whether it was real or just confused with another species?
Have they flip-flipped? When I was a young kid it was Brontosaurus. But everything I’ve seen since then has corrected it in line with scientific consensus: it was the Apatosaurus.
I love those videos.
If they push long and hard enough, it just might… no, that’s really not going to work.
There’s a lot to say about this comic, but I’m just sad to see ‘shit’ be replaced by ‘shoot’. 😞
What’s the deal with you and others like you being so annoyed by lack of swearing? Like the comments that get voted to the moon because someone didn’t feel like swearing or censored a swear? Like… I swear, sometimes I don’t tho… But like it’s a non issue.
Am I missing something?
Genuinely curious.
Because it’s an annoying stigma constantly pushed by the pearl clutching religious people, they’re after all just words.
It’s the same fight we’ve had against “The pearl clutchers” for like ever now on various things, like women wearing pants or wearing a 2 piece swimsuit.
At this point whenever I hear someone say one of those “pseudo cuss words” like shoot or fudge (I really hate when people say fudge, it’s fucking annoying AF) in a non-professional environment I just automatically associate them as a “Pearl clutcher”/Fun ruiner/HR type person
However, that being said, if the artist does it on their own then i’m fairly neutral on it. I probably won’t want to hang out with you, but I’m also not going to rage against you in the comments or something.
But it’s really irritating when someone else censors it or modifies it from the original of what the artist intended because of their “DeLIcaTe seNSiBiLitIEs” and I’ll call that shit out anytime.
I don’t think of “shoot” as just a toned-down “shit”. If “shit” expresses anger or rage, “shoot” expresses frustration and disappointment. Not the same.
I agree with you on “fudge” though, no one should be saying that unless taking about the dessert.
And to be clear, in this instance the artist just choose to use that word. Seems like the comic aims to be family friendly too, which is a valid reason to avoid the hard curse words. https://www.berkeleymews.com/comic/time-travel/
Oh idk. I’m just a simple man, who wants cartoon characters to emote and use (body) language accordingly. That includes the occasional swearing when the shit really hits the fan, in my opinion.
Nothing got replaced. https://www.berkeleymews.com/comic/time-travel/
No, I mean what counts as “swearing” in the future.
Imagine traveling to the distance past, when the atmosphere’s composition and temperature are so hostile to you that you need a protective suit and helmet, and then you find out you ran out of fuel and are going to die within a few hours or so. ‘Shoot’ would not be a strong enough word I’d like to use in that situation.
So…. That’s what I meant. 🤗After guns were banned worldwide the word shoot became seen as a powerfully dark and terrible word while words describing normal body.functions lost shock value especially as improvements in health and diet made the substances themselves less disgusting.
If it was a mild problem he might have said ‘shit’ like we’d say ‘oh god’ which was once seen as real swearing. the puritanism based around sexuality and misogyny is long since faded in their future so fuck, cunt, bitch, are all out, but to evoke images of the bloody conflicts and brutal murders of the past is a real shock to the system like ‘wow this situation is so bad it makes me want to return to the psychotic olden days when people would shoot each other’
Perhaps he viewed it as a fixable problem.
You want fossils? Look no further than the us presidential candidates. I mean before last week of course.
Where were going, we don’t need fossil fuels!
