Karma

I don’t really think this strip is blasphemous, but then I think God has a sense of humor. Indeed, this strip could have been a lot worse longer. When it comes to Godly jokes there’s a lot of low-hanging (forbidden) fruit out there (see God’s Bluesky feed) when it comes to humor. Which means, given the work that went into creating his presence for this strip, he’ll probably make a return visit. (Sort of a second coming in the secular sense of the phrase.)

Karma. Whether you call it “reckoning,” “midah keneged midah,” or “talio,” it’s coming for this Administration and the ICE and Border Patrol thugs. It may come in the form of impeachment hearings, criminal trials, or divine justice, but Karma points out that it’s coming. Let’s hope (or pray, if you prefer) it comes sooner rather than later.

sketchier

P.S. I am told by Claude AI that “reckoning,” “midah keneged midah,” and “talio” are close translations for karma in English, Hebrew, and Latin, respectively. But I think “karma is a bitch” lands better than “talio saeva est.”
