In a collection of woke vignettes, Passmore covers topics ranging from the debate over Confederate monuments to the proper and preferred use of pronouns in this day and age. Most wonderfully, the title piece is a graphic depiction of only just some of the dumb things white people do and say. Passmore gets his point across with style and humor. ~ Reviewed by Hanna Yost

This bizarro take on Garfield shows what life would be like if humans and cats switched places on society. Humans (seemingly all male here) are lazy, grumpy, shouting little nuisances, and cats are stuck at dead-end jobs in cubicles. After Manfried escapes his slacker-owners window, he goes off on his own adventure, full of oncoming traffic and cat fight clubs. ~ Reviewed by Chris Linendoll
