I'm reminded yet again why I love "Nancy." Sluggo is a good boy (some of the time).

Nancy By Ernie Bushmiller February 19,1966

HOT DOGS

Do you need some beautiful music right now? Don't we all! I'm listening to "Midwinter Swimmers," The Innocence Mission's latest album (Nov. 2024). It's lovely. Check it out. theinnocencemission.bandcamp.com/album/midwin...

Good day, friends. When I considered returning to social media, I hesitated for these reasons: endless bad news, snarky takes, useless moral outrage, and adding more tsuris to the world. I so easily succumb! So, instead, I bring radio, Nancy comics, Good News, and Helpful Things to Do. See below.

TUNE INTO NANCY AND SLUGGO THURSDAY

The AFL-CIO is collecting stories from workers and working families who are affected by the Trump administration’s new policies. If this is you, or someone you know, please go here and share it with others. act.aflcio.org/forms/share-... Thanks to @laustan.bsky.social for the tip.

A reminder that all skiing in Vermont doesn't require you to deal with rich schmucks. Thanks, @vtdigger.bsky.social for this great story! vtdigger.org/2025/02/11/a...

Thanks, everyone, for "following" me and being interested in my radio show. It's probably a good time to mention this: if I don't know you or recognize your handle, I probably won't follow you back. If you would like to change that, then please introduce yourself. I'm actually pretty friendly!
