  • I get that feeling from 90% of this artist’s comics, but this one actually made me chuckle. More importantly, I shared it with my mom and it made her chuckle. She is not as accepting of LGBT+ as one might hope, so this was not a given.

    It has all the elements of a joke, most importantly subversion of expectations. I’ll give this one a pass. Save your rant for the next comic ;)






  • I have no personal experience with this, just stuff I’ve heard online and from friends. I may well have some details wrong, but the truth is I’ve always been able to use my Visa credit card for any online shop from any country, including ones which Americans were having trouble with.

    I think some shops (and maybe countries) which have a strong trade/tourism relationship with USA will just go out of their way to support American “non-international” cards. Whether that is the case for you in New Zealand, I can’t say.

    I don’t have much stake here and I admit I could have gotten something wrong.
