Kedamono sends in this questionable sculptural decision — which, luckily, the Egyptians did not make.

Mark Parisi posted: “It had to be done. (On my Patreon page I drew the view from the other side. I then sent that to my editor asking if it was too much to be published in daily newspapers. He suggested it could be newspaper-friendly if it was shown from the other side. Smart.)”

It’s kind of fun (to me) that “scuttlebutt” was in fact sailor slang. Here it’s “butt” to mean a barrel. A scuttlebutt was the water barrel on deck. It became a term for gossip for the same reason water coolers are associated with gossip today.
Also that Sphinx photo combined with the cartoon makes me think of the dog in “Brazil” with its butt sealed shut, and if I’m stuck with that mental image then so are you. I guess at least it wasn’t bricked over.
