Not my OC. Just wanted to bring attention to a little underated comic strip. Great artwork. Different tone and topic to what's commonly posted here. Enjoy.

I'm going to over to your place, take over the nicest room, lock a few people in the basement if they complain, and you'll be going to work everyday to pay for this. Sound good?

lol that's like using household finances to describe how government debt works. Not an accurate analogy at all.

I guess I can head on over.

Edit: the reason you should not use household finances as an analogy in this is because households do not control monetary policy and most people don't really understand national and international financial policy (or their own finances half the time).

In this case, a neighbor making an unprovoked takeover of your house in order to take advantage of the people living there is exactly what happened. The invasion hinges on "might makes right" so it stands to reason that should be fine in the locale of your home if it's ok for a Ukrainian's home near the border.
