line drawing. A man is faced down at a bar, his right arm raised with a glass in it. around him are various bottles and glasses. Text at the top reads "You might know about Dry January, but very few people know about the secret month known as Pickled Cubiwery.

A word balloon pointing to someone out of frame reads "What'll you have now?" The man responds "Yes."

On the wall behind him is a calendar showing Cubiwery, with a picture an arrow pointing at a wine bottle, with "YES!" written next to the arrow.

This is a.i. The reporter has two hands behind her back and still has a third hand free to hold her mic. Looks like the text was intentionally placed to obscure the third hand. Report for misleading content.

Botober Day 10: 1/4 can cool soup

There's a halfway decent joke buried in this somewhere.
www.ga2so.com/blog/2025/10...
#botober #drawing

Line drawing. At the top are the words "CSI: PANTRY." Below that is a can of gazpacho wearing sunglasses. The top fourth of the can is torn off and sitting to the right of the bottom. Text above the torn top reads:
"The victim is Jimmy 'Gaz' Gazpacho, a second shelf staple. Our unsub is a person with an extreme dislike of can openers."

"HE'S A DMAN MONSTER!"

"You need to cool down."

Text below reads "BOTOBER 25 10: 1/4 can cool soup"

I got the COVID & flu shots today. The last time I got them at the same time I was out for a day, so I booked a sub. I feel fine and can't cancel the sub this late, so I guess I'll have to go for a bike ride tomorrow instead of working.
