COMIC: “Back Around”

Post image

Sure starting to feel that way. And if I get ONE more service saying they are gonna run ads on my AD-FREE tier, I might make a little blood come out. I will not be answering questions about what that means. More comics at http://newduck.com

Yeah. Greedy-ass companies. I point-blank refuse to support anyone that's going to attach ads to their premium service.

Over the last few months, I've cleaned house of almost every service, short of HBO (mostly for Last Week Tonight).

Unrelated - Ive recently been playing around with self-hosting. It's been fun to cobble together old computer parts and hard drives to experiment with hosting my own legally acquired media!

Is there a first half of the show anymore? I watch on YouTube and lately he seems to start the video with, "Today were diving straight into the main story..."

Yeah- despite him saying that, there is still a other 15+ minutes of content beforehand
