I had a friend who made a crop circle once. UFO experts came to investigate, and declared it was impossible for any human to have made it — it was radioactive and all of the stems of the plants had been bent with electromagnetic waves.
“…And Having Writ” by Donald Bensen. Great science fiction comedy. Four goofy aliens crash land in 1908 California. They decide that the easiest way to accelerate Earth’s technical innovation is to start a World War…
So if you want to comment about this cartoon on social media, it must be done on “Space X” and not on Just old “X” formerly known as Twitter, if you want the aliens to read it.
Reminded me of the Jeraptha aliens in the “Expeditionary Force” books, who were largely motivated to help humanity because of all the “juicy action” they could enjoy betting (with other Jeraptha) on human sports and especially “fantasy league” sports.

If any character in this strip knows about social media, it would have to be Agent X, formerly known as Agent Twitter.

Oh no – I think the translation of that symbol is the notification of a super highway being built directly through Earth’s path.
