Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "For All Pigkind"

From DC's anarchist cartoonist, Mike Flugennock -

Y'know, it says it right there in my social media profiles, so it's time for a little space geekery:


"For All Pigkind"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3241

In the space of about two weeks, I'm hit with the news that 
trillionaire serial worker abuser Jeff Bezos has found someone willing 
to throw down $28 mil for a suborbital joyride with him — and that 
Elon Musk will refuse to recognize Earth laws in his gated suburbs on 
Mars. Doubtless Musk will have some Space Force grunts on-call to keep 
a lid on things out there.

I'm especially bugged that Bezos has chosen July 20 as his launch 
date; I'm sure he thinks he's making some deep statement or something, 
but instead I'm just insulted somehow. Christ, 28 million dollars to 
go suborbital with Jeff Friggin' Bezos. Bah, I'd rather be a stowaway 
on Apollo 13.
