Jack Applin wants to make us think, aided by these two comics that ran the same day: “I’m certainly inconsistent when I try to separate the artist from their art.

National Snail Day is May 29, a day is dedicated to appreciating snails and their importance in the ecosystem.

Slide into My DMs!
Boise Ed sends this in: “I have no idea what’s going on with this playground.”
When your editor thinks of DM, he thinks of District Managers, which is no help at all.
“DM stands for “Direct Message,” which is a private message sent between two users on a social media platform, messaging app, or online community” (Merriam-Webster)
“Dating/relationships: “Slide into my DMs” is a common phrase for initiating a private conversation, often with flirtatious or romantic intent”.
That sort of helps. So the slide is flirting with the swing set? Is that it?

Mouseover text: “Usain Bolt holds the record in the 100 meter speedrun.”
TedD sends this in: “explainxkcd.com has the answer for this, but I’m curious how understood this comic without an explanation”
Not your editor, for sure!
A Fool and his Money

Fish
Is it as simple as Sluggo not understanding, after all these decades fending for himself, how to attach a worm to a hook? Is Nancy scaring the fish?
May-I
Phred and Boise Ed sent this in: “I definitely didn’t get this until I read the comments on the page… Certainly fits the bill here.”
