One of the largest complaints of high school students is the dress code, and this cartoon criticizes student objections by comparing the Bolles dress code to uniforms in the show Squid Game. Uniforms intentionally create a standard of dress that lacks any form of expression, while dress codes, especially Bolles'’, still give students the freedom to choose clothes that they find more comfortable, stylish, and suitable. So, dress codes aren't all that bad, and people should stop complaining when we might find this dystopian alternative way more restrictive.

“You are now muted,” the overly cheery and annoying robot voice of Schoology Siri greets as every user attempts to mute themselves after signing into class. However, Schoology Siri is not wrong in the land of online learning, as many online students find themselves struggling with participating and having their voice heard. Not wanting to interrupt and trying to be polite is detrimental to learning when online, as teachers are often focused on the in-person students and inadvertently neglect the raised hands of their online pupils. This cartoon portrays this situation by depicting students who clearly have questions (demonstrated by both their raised hands and the question-filled public chat) but employs irony; instead of Big Blue Button alerting them that they are muted/unmuted, the teacher is saying, “You are now muted,” symbolic of the seemingly forever state of muteness when online.
