(Linus Van Pelt is standing on someone’s front step as a door to door salesman. A girl who may or may not be Violet sticks her head out cautiously. GOOD MORNING, MISS... I'M SELLING A NEW ITEM FOR KITTENS, AND I… FOR WHAT? (The girl steps out onto the porch to see his wares.) FOR KITTENS...THIS IS A NEW TOY I HAVE DEVELOPED… A KITTEN CAN ENTERTAIN HIMSELF FOR HOURS WITH THIS TOY... THE TOY IS SIMPLICITY ITSELF...I HAVE TAKEN SEVERAL PIECES OF SCRAP PAPER AND I HAVE CRUMPLED THEM UP... (Linus begins enthusiastically miming a kitten playing with scrap paper balls.) A KITTEN WILL PLAY FOR HOURS WITH A PIECE OF CRUMPLED PAPER! HE'LL BAT IT, AND HE'LL JUMP AT IT... AND IF YOU HANG IT FROM A STRING, HE'LL HIT IT AND BOX WITH IT AND EVERYTHING! IT'S REALLY FUN TO WATCH A KITTEN BOUNCE AROUND... (Linus returns to the hard sell. The girl is unimpressed.) WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUY ONE? THEY'RE ONLY FIVE CENTS APIECE.. WHY SHOULD I BUY ONE? WHY CAN’T I JUST CRUMPLE A PIECE OF PAPER MYSELF? (Linus stares into the middle distance for two panels. In the final panel he’s slumping his way back home with his box of paper scraps.) ALL ALONG I'VE BEEN AFRAID THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS IDEA...

November 7, 2020 You know, being 200 years old isn't always so easy, not even when you're a witch. The days go by so fast sometimes. Has it already been a week since Halloween Night? It can be hard to tell whether Halloween is over or not when you live in the heart of Halloween itself.
So I look back at the dream I just came out of and like WTF It's Jack Namazuchan: The one you don't like?

I thought I had an enemy But to him I'm just Nick from school

Lore Sjöberg @loresjoberg • 12/19/20 Do breakfast cereal mascots live in a universe in which other breakfast cereals exist? Like, is the Trix rabbit humiliatingly obsessed with Trix because it's the only option, or is he actively choosing Trix over say Froot Loops? Lore Sjöberg @loresjoberg • 12/19/20 I...may have had a couple edibles. G, The Hungry Reader @TeeAitchAre What if the Cinnamon Toast Crunch "Crazy Squares" got out of the box and found out how many other cereals they could be eating in this shopping aisle? Would their population explode and they'd take over the store? What if all food learned that it could eat other foods? 8:07 PM • 12/19/20 from Earth
