Dammit, is this one of those times where the bonus panel is better than the comic?

How did you find the bonus panel? I don't see it on the page anywhere

This red button

The design is a bit overloaded and it's not really clear what the button does.

Oh cool, yeah I never would have clicked that given it's surrounded by social media garbage, but I'm glad I learned. Thanks.

You can block social media garbage

I have noscript set to block everything I don't whitelist and ublock origin with pretty aggressive filters already, but the icons still show up, and the button was among them, so my vision just passed over it. It's an unmarked red button surrounded by Twitter and Facebook icons. The scripts and trackers are already blocked on my browser.

Also... I forgot to paste the img url on the first comment.

Fixed.

I’ve read Logicomix: An Epic Search for Truth by Apostolos Doxiadis. The protagonist, Bertrand Russell, is my favorite philosopher now.

Scan on Internet Archive

I picked it up for the math but it turned out to be rather glossed over. Nevertheless, the epic storytelling kept me hooked throughout.

I found a copy for 2.50£ on https://www.vialibri.net/ (LPT, great site/meta search for used books). I am totally going to read it online before.
