FYI, I saw “Barbie” over the weekend. There was no mention of Barbieland having a Pope Barbie (or the absence of female popes in the Real World), but it wouldn’t have been out of place.
Too bad all the hard work women put in is being shot down for the sake of “inclusion”……Title IX comes to mind. Sinead O’Connor? Now she’s a martyr? She had issues….she was not well. She said some hateful things…but knowing she was ill may explain it.
Sending encouraging thoughts to Marrin for whatever is going on, whether a happy a vacation or something else. We sure miss you and the gang, and hope you are able to come back when you are ready!

Very interesting. But it is also very correct. Perfect about forgiveness, the power of women and strength.

Can somebody please explain todays strip? I don’t get it. What am I missing? Women are strong? Huh?

Let me guess: Greta, Sinead and Ruth, women more interested in speaking out than dressing up.

Gabby would enjoy that movie.

Come back in late August. In RL most of Rome takes August holiday because the city is too hot and humid.

Sinéad O’Conner and Ruth Bader Ginsburg! This gal’s got her head in the right place.

Either the author is on a very long vacation or this strip is about to end.

At the National Catholic Reporter website there is one comic after this one. That one says that the comic needs a short break.
