I think there should be a screen time category - there seems to be a lot of comics with this trend -Donthaveusernametalk

The title text seems like a reference to the movie Airplane! Barmar (talk) 00:19, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

I'm not finding the connection, although I'm not familiar with the movie. Could you please explain? Nk1406 (talk) 02:13, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

It's probably worth knowing about the fake collecting boxes for ballots. Robert Carnegie [email protected] 162.158.154.215 09:56, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

You're referring to the California Republicans' "unofficial ballot boxes"? Worth knowing about, yes, though I don't see any particular relevance to the comic. BunsenH (talk) 15:33, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
I suspect this is a direct response to the comic. With all the confusing illegal stuff happening, voters need to focus a little extra on the news, so they don't (for example) accidentally drop their ballot into a decoy ballot box labeled as "official" --172.68.132.161 16:48, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

Seems to me that the transcript should be text-only: "[Short blue bar-chart bar]", or something like that, rather than an actual graphic bar. No? BunsenH (talk) 15:02, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Agreed. Text describing their relative size would be good too.
