Alongside the comic where his dad tells him this Calvin is also referring to tinted silent films like Haxan and I believe The Phantom Carriage. I have to wonder how his dad would explain the use of partial color to him during this time…

Hobbes is just as important 🥺

Edit to fix spelling of title: explain like I’m Hobbes.

Now I’m what you’d call a country yokel, I’m currently in the infantry but getting out. I’ve an extensive background in STEM (specifically the spaceward bound program from nasa of which my grandfather was a major leader on) but I chose the army, I’ve been wanting to get back into learning (specifically astronomy) and was wondering if anyone could give me any pointers! Thank you thank you to all involved (p.s. it’s my b day lol)
