fwiw I think he should have stuck to his guns and called the character Dildog

the fact that he doesn't think the general public would get the joke behind "Dildog" is kinda Scott Adams in a nutshell, really

has he not spent literally years whining about the "very fine people" hoax, surely he could've WELL ACTUALLY'd his way outta this one
or is it like in 2016 where the writing was on the wall and he doesn't wanna be seen backing a loser

(if you don't remember there was a point in 2016 when a dozen women came out to accuse Trump of sexual misconduct and Adams wrote a sad and very sexist post about how not only was Hillary gonna win but we'd never have a male president again)

"He lost my vote. Can he get it back? Yeah."
Hmm wonder if he'll manage to find a way for trump to get it back in the next 4 weeks...

To avoid getting bogged down on the main US politics thread about yesterday's news, just wanted to share my overly generous take on "weaponized autism". I think the idea is that Trump has an army of rain men who are going to sweep into contested cities and use their super counting skills to refute the reported ballot data.

66% narcissism meaning he needs to say something, anything, to have people watch his livevlogs; 24% grift, hoping to convert his viewers to buy his books or subscribe to his "microlessons" app; 10% more narcissism making him think this is a functional joke.

I actually read a few Dilberts today because I saw this strip on Twitter and wasn't sure if it was real:
https://dilbert.com/strip/2021-02-10
reading the last month or so worth the strip kind of resembles those auto-generated Garfields - it's just a bunch of words with no identifiable punchline. in January alone he seemed to recycle the exact same 'joke' several times, a joke that, if you didn't know who wrote it, you'd think was a criticism of Trumpism. its weird because I remember him being funny and when I jump back to 1997 you can see actual cleverness and wit. and its not like he's simply gotten less funny over the years, it's more like he can't even identify what a joke is anymore.
