    What if the knife is turned to one side?
    The mushroom hat on the Poofti, shades
    of Mario game perhaps?

        Jill biden had already appropriated the table cloth for her next dress.

    Panel 8 – bit of an understatement. Islam has proven itself
    incompatible with ALL societies. Simply because it adheres to a
    “my way, or death” attitude.

    Poofti’s hat – from Toad, of Mario’s world. Somehow, I find that
    appropriate. Toadstools usually indicate something rotten
    underground.

    Ah, nice fact about the dagger then, Missy holding it in her hand
    while talking to the room and the accused, and then lays it out
    in the appropriate manner. After which Dumcan either breates a
    sigh of relief, or wishes he was wearing the brown cammo.

    If the Poofti was any “poofier”, he wouldn’t walk around, he’d roll
    around. I’m glad they are shipping them off, terrorist cells are bad
    news, ask anyone from the Towers or the Pentagon. Sadly, They
    may not have a choice but to bomb the Poofti’s palace, or this will
    happen again. As always it’s the leaders, not the people that’s
    the problem, their “sacred duty” to honor Allah.

    Too bad Teresa isn’t wearing the Polish Hussar wings.
    That would be totally AWESOME!

          (gasp with surprise, rolling with laughter)
          Not what I had in mind, but considering
          the Empire’s origins and Teresa’s abilities,
          I like it. I just hope the real dragons don’t
          go all “Karen” about “wrongful assimilation”.
          (that last was a joke, son, a joke, I say)
          I’ll get on a real computer later today and
          send you a picture or three of the real thing.

          Several links, so I don’t expect this to post without admin intervention:
          Some history of the Polish Hussars (w/pics):
          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_hussars

          And a pic (or several) of the modern parade that made me think of
          Teresa facing off against Poofti:
          https://www.reddit.com/r/ArmsandArmor/comments/rpx34t/polish_women_dressed_like_the_winged_hussars_in_a/

          There was a better pic of them on parade, but I can’t find it right now. Tsk…
          So, PC, ya done good in translating Teresa into a close approximation
          of a Hussar. TY.

    I hope Teresa has battle plans “A”, “B”, and “C”
    in case the Grand Mufti (Poofti) decides that he
    wants to play “taqiyya” (lie in order to advance
    one’s own agenda).
    Myself, I’d give warning to play nice, or there will
    be three mosques destroyed.
    The first one would be small and out of the way.
    The second one might be the Blue Mosque.
    The third one might be the Kaaba, in Mecca.
    But be prepared for a major backlash.
    Maybe a Sword of Damacles threat would be enough.
    Or a trade blockade and embargo.
    This will be interesting to see how PC handles
    this windbag.

      Battle plans would be left to Navy Intel info and
      the Leaders of the military, Teresa has said many
      times she stays out of battle plans and such
      matters as much as possible. She’ll say what she
      wants, and they come up with the plans, only to
      make sure the plans fit her choice. Like with CSA,
      they only took out the government, a few as
      possible of the civvies.

        Teresa is smart enough to know she is not qualified as a military
        strategist unlike some national leaders (Hitler, LBJ) in the last
        century. (Can you believe we’re almost a quarter century away
        from the 20th?) I believe a good part of why Viet Nam went as
        badly for us as it did was because Johnson fancied himself a
        military genius and micro-managed the war.

          Never fails huh, that and focusing on the
          high school grads didn’t help either.
          (It’ll make a man outta them!) Then Nixon
          took office and bungled it even more,
          including the extraction.

      If they’re going to start blowing up mosques, they ought to limit
      it to areas the Grand Poofti controls (Europe). Taking out major
      historical sites would only serve to rile up other Islamists not
      currently at war with the Empire and its member kingdoms.
      No sense making any more active enemies than necessary.

      I notice Teresa is back to her regular hair color. Funny but
      to me her hair seems tidier when dark than when natural.
      I can tell it’s the same hairdo both ways but it just looks
      more unkempt when natural. Am I weird for noticing that?

        Ah, yes, strong soap will make the hair get rough.
        Wavy hair more so. Not at all Bill, my wife has fine,
        straight hair and to this day she uses 3 different
        hair products on hers. (grumbling… damn costly crap…)
        Me? Generic “Head and Shoulders” 😛 I don’t have
        enough to worry about 😉

    Well crud, my monitor is dying. I came back from the bathroom
    and the display is so dim I can barely read it. It’s flickering a bit
    too. I’ll check with my son to see if he still has his old one,
    otherwise I’ll have to wait until next month to replace it. Worst
    possible time too. What I get for buying a cheap TV I guess.
    It’s a 32 in “dumb” TV i bought about 7 years ago, so I guess
    I can’t complain. Kills me though, the old tube set we started
    out with worked up until we couldn’t buy tubes for it anymore.

      I bought this one back in July to replace a 42″ that I’ve been using
      because having such a large one on my desk was… overpowering.
      https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZP9TYLB?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
      I’m happy with it, and the curved screen is nicer than I expected.
      Normally I buy from a trusted pawn shop. I’ve had my 27″ 4K Asus
      for a couple of years now. Cost me $90.00 and still working fine.

        My son has pretty much the same thing, but with my eyes I need the
        bigger screen. My wife reminded me that I had gave my old 14″ TV
        monitor to my father, which he never uses since we moved his 55″
        TV to the dinning room wall where he could see it better. Sadly
        while the 14″ is a decent TV, the best resolution it has is 1268
        where my old one was 1894. I found one at Wal-mart for $88 that’s
        1080p where the 32″ I did have was only 720p.

          I’ve purchased several from Goodwill stores. They usually cost about $35

            When My wife and I moved in together, all we had was a 13″ bl/w TV until I
            was driving through a “rich” neighborhood and noticed a 23″ console TV by
            the road. I loaded it up, took it home, replaced 3 of the tubes, and we had
            a TV. Our first decent tax return I upgraded. That was 3 years later when
            our first was born. (That S.O.B. was HEAVY!)

            I thought about that, but the Goodwill stores in my area are all in the low-income areas,
            you have to pretty much camp there to find one. I’ve been burned too many times on
            E-bay to consider it, so I’ll opt for this: https://www.walmart.com/ip/seort/1302917896
            still $10 less than I paid for the last one and twice the TV.

    Found one PC, as a medallion.
    https://www.printables.com/model/787433-the-vitruvian-man
    I can extrude it up and add the name you asked
    for and I’ll send you the finished .stl file.
    Do you want it to stand alone or add a base?

    Hmm, not sure that the fact that there are some islamist extremists (which, I admit, did pretty
    bad stuff in-universe) means that “Islam has proven incompatible with Imperial society”.
    That would be just as if some conservative Christians protesting violently against the now
    allowed polygamy, or maybe against the fact that the head of state is a woman, means
    “Christianity is incompatible with Imperial society”.

    (Personally I think all religions are garbage, but I won’t force that on anyone else.)

    Beside, the fact that you basically force people to abjure their faith (or emigrate)
    will just create more future conflicts.

      If any sect came out against those things and demanded violence to achieve their desires,
      then yes, they would be incompatible with Imperial Society.
      That is what ALL of Islam teaches, and it specifies in the Koran that any Muslim that doesn’t
      live up to that teaching is not being true to the faith.
      There are no moderate Muslims. There are only those who follow the teachings of Islam,
      and those who do not.
