the City dwellers are the perfect electorate for the current German government 😂😂

Exactly the local public broadcast here: "There is no heatwave, we really love 38°C and the hotter the better, record heat yeah!"
in reply to David Revoy

Not understanding your reference for there's no fire here if , the fire is about south Europe. but if about fire in the Middle East then it makes sense
in reply to David Revoy

je pense que la dernière case va pouvoir resservir en réaction meme ><
in reply to David Revoy

damn, I'm sorry.

I know you understood the joke related to your previous post:
framapiaf.org/@davidrevoy/1169…

But I can't help but think that this might have caused some quick distress before getting to the ”/s” at the end. Sorry about that.

And stuff like this just make me wanna support your awesome work (in nature, process ans output):

So I just went ahead and ordered the Pepper & Carrot collection (was on my wish list, just needed a nudge!) to read to my kids.

Thanks for your inspiring work & ethics!

I literally peeled off a fasch sticker today insinuating that the climate collapse is "green propaganda" and a hot summer is all fine and dandy, so this is frightingly timely 🤢

@jfml I feel it. I wrote this one after being confronted also to situation on my trip back from Paris.

How some people respond delusionally to any stressful 'global' situation... In this comic, the first guy diminishes the effect, the woman in second solves the problem selfishly with money (the higher class dodging the issue with their resources), and the last dog-man blames a minority (racism).

in reply to David Revoy

ah, I thought it’s a symbol for „Lügenpresse“ (mendacious press)

A huge amount of art will be created by future generations just to process what the hell happened to us right now.

I mean, think about how much has been done and written about all our past self-inflicted disasters. That's us now.

"Well okay, there are some scattered flames... but that's all part of the natural cycle! We've had fires before and survived, and anyway it's not our fault and there's nothing we can do about it."
in reply to David Revoy

I know you're talking about global warming, but one time at my job at a picture frame shop, there was a massive fire on the same block (not our building, but about three storefronts down) and my boss wouldn't let us go home early or even make a plan to evacuate the art.

Spent all day telling customers over the phone not to come down because the road out front was completely blocked off with fire trucks.

in reply to ✨pencilears✨

@pencilears Oh no. Yes, the allegory is about Global Warming/Climate Change, but it is also broad enough for many topics. The real main topic is about the delusional response of people refusing to see the emergency, so your experience totally matches that.
in reply to David Revoy

@pencilears Normalcy Bias is a serious problem with a complex cause.

It is at its most disturbing when it occurs without deliberate effort for promoting it by malicious parties and without the individual affected being typically so inclined to ignore problems, instead their cognition just clearly visibly skipping a beat.

Thank you for this very apt piece of social commentary.

Nothing to laugh or smile about this time. Beautiful drawings, as always.

"But ... don't you see it?" hit hard.

in reply to Hardy Erlinger

@hardy Thank you for reading. I probably experienced an overwhelming emotional response over the last day. The smoke from a forest fire 300 km away filled my valley, one of my cats had to go to the vet because he has a weak heart and the heatwave almost killed him (he's fine now, this is one: davidrevoy.com/article1075/diy…). On the train back from Paris, an old man said, "It was like that in 1976 too".
I just took my laptop and furiously typed out this story...
in reply to David Revoy

I completely understand. Good thing for all of us that you were able to turn what could have been an angry rant into something beautiful instead. Highly appreciated.
in reply to David Revoy

@hardy oh not the '76, I'm so done with people mentioning '76.

Basically every year of my life has been a record summer yet it's always been ‘well it was worse in 76’ ‘we did okay in 76’ ‘it's barely warmer than 76’ .

Like okay we get it you had **one** hot year when you were a kid or whatever. _Its hot every year now_.

Once in a century has become an annual event how do you not see this is a problem????

in reply to David Revoy

I like the last panel with the cat sticking its tongue out
in reply to David Revoy

Oof! I feel so bad for the people in Europe when the weather gets like this. It used to be so rare, and now it seems like it's happening every year, sometimes multiple times. The people saying, "Just get an AC" feel so callous.

This reminded me of a commercial I see a lot on my left-leaning TV channel. I think you might appreciate it.

in reply to C. Knodel

@knodel Yes, the part where she leaves away flying is the total fiction in this comic. Sadly, we have to endure those @$%#@

Pas fan de la dernière case, ça n'a rien à voir avec une quelconque "folie", laissons les fols en dehors de ça voulez-vous ?
in reply to Zoidberg For President

Au contraire, je pense que c'est un phénomène de délire de masse pour divers raisons et pathologies non traités (eg. des psychoses ordinaire sous jacente et différent niveau de paranoïas)

(edit: ensuite, je respecte votre gout de pas être fan, pas de soucis, et je n'ai pas voulu offensé quiconque en cours de traitement ou concerné par le signe du doigt autour de la tempe. Ho la que non.)

J'vois pas l'intérêt de verser dans la psychophobie pour démontrer le non sens du bouzin, c'est tout. bizoo
in reply to Zoidberg For President

@ZoidbergForPresident Je vous rassure, pas de psychophobie ou psychoshaming ici (loin de là, même la démarche inverse).

Satire has to run fast to keep up with reality these days. (the photo shown in the link is destined to be iconic)

in reply to Tony Fisk

@arfisk True. This photo was taken on a nearby region where I live; the smoke filled my valley during a full day. The media here are in loop about it, I listened to that while painting this comic...
in reply to David Revoy

We know all about the smoke in Australia! It gives me serious flashbacks to new years day in 2020, when SE Australia was an inferno, and hundreds were trapped in the coastal town of Marlo. (Fortunately the main front missed the township proper)

The only good that came out was a lot of foxhole conversions.

in reply to David Revoy

I'm tempted to put the last panel as a comment to every news about heatwaves, drout, wildfire etc. - it's such a bad "told you so"-moment for scientists worldwide. And in Germany our gov is killing renewable energies... again... 😭
in reply to David Revoy

i love this comic tackles multiple things at once haha good work as always!

"pure elves' propaganda" lmao

in reply to David Revoy

once you add police punishing you for using word "fire" - you'll get Putin's Russia.
