Plenty of time to build catapults.

I see we have a true connoisseur of siege weaponry in our midst.

Awww come on, the more the merrier!

I like the comic. But also, in what world is waking up with the sun visibly up in the sky "the early bird"? My wife and I are up at 4:00 a.m. everyday, not because I want to be. That's just the early bird life. And you know, the job of people who serve breakfast (she does).

He's not talkin about the time of day, but the fact he's headed out for the purge three days in advance.

[mentaledge@sopuli.xyz]

Culture. Culture endures. You can kill reddit, but you can't kill an idea.

[doingthestuff@lemy.lol]

That's fair. The visual of waking up with sun that high with the phrase was what caught me. Even in the longest days of the year I'm up before the sun 90% of the time.

[doingthestuff@lemy.lol]

That's fair. For me it was just the combination of that visual of the sun relatively high with that phrase. Even during the longest days of the year in summer I'm up before the sun 90% of the time.

Maybe that is supposed to be your reaction on the first panel, but by the fourth panel it makes sense. Maybe you didn’t get to the fourth panel before commenting?

[doingthestuff@lemy.lol]

I guess yeah, but in a sense he wasn't the early bird in any sense of the word. He woke up late in the day and showed up late to the purge. Also three days early with probably not ebough gear to camp out that long. I know I overanalyze everything but I'm also a backpacker. Maybe he has a bunch of ultralight gear and some dehydrated meals in that little pack.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for composting elon, but that alone won't change much.

Never forget - we are many, they are few, there is enough composting to go around, but more importantly, we need to already be creating the foundations for an alternative, better, society, so that when we abolish the systems that currently govern ours, we have a solid and equitable framework to fall back on and build from.

I hope he can get his spot back in the bread line.

[danc4498@lemmy.world]

I think you just keep explaining the joke. He’s not an early bird is the joke.

[saharamaleikuhm@feddit.org]

It may not change much, but damn would it ever feel good.

[saharamaleikuhm@feddit.org]

4am is still late bird territory. I don't accept anything before 5am as early bird.

[doingthestuff@lemy.lol]

Yeah. It's Monday and I worked all weekend but I'm also a little crispy. I'll get there.

[nopper@lemmy.world]

That could be any Elon.

[zugyuk@lemmy.world]

Why do we need to wait for the purge?
