Friday is (mostly) for children
Family Circus, 9/10/21

A lot has changed for me, both in my life and vis-à-vis my relationship to the comics, since I started this blog in 2004, and definitely the one change I would've been least likelty to predict is that I would come to have an occasional grudging admiration for the Family Circus. And I didn't even have to become a parent for it to happen! Yes, the strip is like 75% darnedest-thing-saying and reused art by volume, but every once in a while you get a great image like today's, when Daddy has very clearly just had the epiphany that he could be doing literally anything else right now.
