Quoting wikipedia, "Calvin and Hobbes is a daily American comic strip created by cartoonist Bill Watterson that was syndicated from November 18, 1985 to December 31, 1995. Commonly cited as "the last great newspaper comic", Calvin and Hobbes has enjoyed broad and enduring popularity, influence, academic and philosophical interest”. This magazine celebrates this superb comic strip which is filled with imagination and humor. Official site: https://www.calvinandhobbes.com/about-calvin-and-hobbes/ DAILY POSTING INFO: The daily strips I post (I being the mod SpacemanSpiff), are posted on the (approximate) date they appeared 20 years ago (2023 = originally published in 1993). The date isn’t precise because the days of the week aren’t the same, so in order to post the Sunday strips on Sunday I need to adjust either forward or backward a few days depending on the year. STORY ARCS: If the currently running daily’s don’t have a story arc going, I like to supplement my daily posting with an arc chosen from anywhere in the strip’s entire library. I usually try to make the title fun as if you’re following a serial installment in an actual magazine. I’m always open to suggestions for improvement. Welcome! And I hope you enjoy! :)

I have younger kids. This panel, and your message, really get to the eternal struggle. It can be challenging when the same individual consistently demonstrates the same behavior without a willingness to change, but if someone expresses self-reflection it's hard not to be supportive.
