I try to keep politics out of the comic. I want people from every point in the spectrum to feel welcome here, and frankly, I just don't find the government very funny. Also, I suspect the majority of the comics readers have a good idea where I stand. That said, it is election time in the USA.
If you are a US citizen, please vote.

And yes, if you ever visit Portugal, take extra care when ordering a hot chocolate. It does not help that “choco” means “cuttlefish.”
Also note: The diagram on the trashcan in the lower right corner always looks to me like a kid protesting as their parent throws away their mobile game device.
