Boise Ed notes: “Seriously CIDU. We have a man on the shore, watching a diving whale and what looks like a giant, flying Covid virus. Some commenters thought the latter was a mine, slapped by the whale who somehow avoided being blown up.”
Or a small Death Star? High-tech whale watching (or hunting)?
Sometimes Life on Earth will seize on some setting or prop or situation to use in several daily panels, without any clear intent to take them together as anything like a narrative sequence or theme-and-variations. All I can come up with about the examples below is that they all involve the game of chess, in one way or another.

Teresa Burritt, creator of the GoCreator designation & pin, has been practicing what she preached, and showed up in the GoComics comments for the “Strip Chess” one. She noted that the guy with the one red sock apparently had matching underpants. Hey wait a minute, just how nude is this guy?!

This would be my choice for “one of these is actually funny”.
Ghosts can die? Their ghosts have ghosts? The ghosts’ ghosts can be further killed by ceiling fans, even though they are noncorporeal?
Here’s one sent by two readers, Boise Ed and James Riendeau:
Ed limns the puzzlement for us: “Grimm appears to be writing on a notepad. Goose is on a landline call. Is ‘sneaking notes’ some kind of cell-phone thing? I’m totally lost here, and none of the [GoComics site] commenters got it, either.”
It turns out that this isn’t a CIDU once you see the followup, but Kilby quite rightly flagged the first of the pair:
The sequel is here:

No, no way to sum up who these boys are and what their take is.
But what’s up with this band they have decided to follow, The Whom? It’s not a good fit as a parody on The Who. And the collection of covers isn’t doing a Wrong Hands number, either. But can you make out more than a collection of singleton jokes?
Tim Harrod sent:
Not one clue here
Who or what (and where, and why) are these birds and monsters and things?
CIDU: Here’s a chance for some early-riser readers to explain for others the allusions to a certain (probably false!) famous Hemingway anecdote.
LOL: But also, all can just enjoy these (somewhat sour!) joke mini-strips.
Seen on social media, with the speculation that this probably came from gunshowcomic.com, a static archive site for k c green’s old work. Other sites with their work are given in the tags. Their current panel feature called “God’s Hands” runs on Comics Kingdom as well as webtoons.com.
