Learning Day: Nathen Mazri’s Political Career 🌭

When you work for 1900Hotdog, you have to keep track of your maniacs. Roughly once a year, for the last three years, I’ve reported on the movements of a man driven to madness by the loss of his one true love, a Garfield licensing deal.

So, what’s Nathen Mazri, failed GarfieldEats restaurateur, been up to lately? Well, he’s taking his fight for Garfield straight to the top. He’s running for political office. Ladies, get a man who fights for you the way Nathen Mazri fights for Garfield. He will become the Prime Minister of Canada to get his ex-back.

I know you’re probably thinking that this isn’t about Garfield and I’m being a silly little goose when I say it is, but it’s very explicitly about Garfield. He says it’s about Garfield. It’s been four years since he lost the license to sell Garfield merchandise and two years since he actually stopped selling Garfield merchandise…

… give or take some NFTs of him and his Garfield frozen lasagna. The point is, he’s still WAY not over it. He’s making himself the Garfield candidate of Canada’s far right.

What does the People’s Party Of Canada stand for exactly? It kind of seems like they’re a far right party that’s trying to present itself as a middle-of-the-road Sensible Joe party. They do have one policy point that seems pretty radical: “Approve Trans Mountain.” I too think we should give Trans people their own mountain. Whether it’s a theme park, a restaurant, or a secret dojo, do it: Approve Trans Mountain.

Oh, sorry, that’s about oil drilling, boo. Apparently, Mazri is a huge climate change denier. In his opinion climate change can’t be real because God wouldn’t let us drill too much oil, or something.

His main platform seems to be talking about corporate corruption, which, in his opinion, means he wanted to start a business and found out it’s actually pretty hard. Sometimes things happen that are totally out of your control, like Paramount gets mad when your tweets sound like you kind of want to fuck Garfield, so they take your Garfield license away, or no one wants to buy Scooby-Doo Lasagna because that makes no earthly sense, Scooby-Doo isn’t a big lasagna guy. So, that’s government corruption.

You can tell someone from The People’s Party Of Canada is working hard behind the scenes to scrub social media in a way that makes him seem less weird. They managed to delete the post-Garfield phase where he was rebranding celibacy. Good note, but sorry, the internet is forever, People’s Party Of Canada.

However, they couldn’t pry the Garfield thing from Nathen’s lasagna-covered hands. His knock-off Garfield Jesus podcast, The Nathfield, is still up, and it’s going strong. He’s posted one nine-minute long episode in the last two years, probably due to government corruption. He even released a sad country theme song about Nathfield fighting the apocalypse, or at least something called a grease storm? Which seems like a very climate change-based apocalypse scenario, but maybe I’m wrong? Let’s check out those lyrics. They’re probably normal.

Yes, the theme song mentions Nathen Mazri by name and how good he is at licensing, which is not a skill, multiple times, at one point referring to him as “Nathen Mazri, The Wizard Of Dreams.” There aren’t many theme songs bold enough to take a long pause in the middle to compliment the person who wrote and produced them. “Spider-Man, Spider-Man, Paul Francis Webster can slam dunk a basketball” just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Nathen Mazri has made Nathfield, the Garfield knock-off that Paramount can never steal from him, an integral part of his identity, and he’s made himself a character in Nathfield’s world. So, does that mean the People’s Party of Canada is part of the Nathfield universe? Well, in the Nathfield Discord, Nathen invited people to send in fan art of the character, and this was one of the responses.

The Nathfield Twitter has a People’s Party Of Canada cover photo and tweets a lot about politics but in a far more radical way than Nathen Mazri does on his own profile. His profile has a lot of political interview clips of people he idolizes, like Tucker Carlson. Meanwhile, on the Nathfield account, he’s still taking out personal grievances, and not just Garfield-related grievances either. He had the orange cat that’s going to save our world from grease call his sister a “butch raging lesbian.” As far as I can tell, Nathfield’s butch raging lesbian sister is not a character in the cartoon.

He also went through a phase in 2024 where he kept predicting the end of the world every few months using cat food-brained numerology, and never deleted his predictions when he was wrong. Nathen! You can delete things when you’re wrong, and no one will ever know it happened! Like when you jumped up and down in a CELIBACY IS SEXCY shirt. But he is right about one thing: 48 + 8 = 57.

The deeper you dig into Nathen Mazri, the more his political views turn to conspiracy theories. The Nathfield Discord has members who believe Apple is using airpods to steal your thoughts so they can advertise to you better. I wanted to let them know that Apple doesn’t want their thoughts. Apple doesn’t care enough about you to waste the server space combing through your irrational fear of stingrays and desire for a pastrami sandwich, guys.

The main Nathen Mazri account does have nods to Nathfield as well. His AI-generated action figure comes with an orange cat sidekick! It’s cute, but don’t ask what it thinks of its sister, or things will get real dark.

What about that new podcast episode that Nathen dropped earlier this year? Surely, he knew he had political aspirations in mid-January when the episode was released. It looks like he announced his candidacy a month later. Did he do anything to tone down the podcast’s weird religious themes or untamed Garfield rage? Sort of! It did get less religious! Way angrier, though; in exchange.

In episode four, Pig Bill and Nathfield finally meet and fight! This is huge for the Nathfield universe which has so far been mostly a commercial for another unsuccessful Nathen Mazri business, an app called egeez, and characters monologuing about how corrupt the world is. It’s the first real action in the Nathfield universe, and it attempts to explain what a grease storm is!

Pig Bill, a “dangerous cybernetic troll and hack pig,” is attacking the people of Toronto with a Nano Blaster 5G, a device that releases a massive hacker attack clogging digital lives with grease. I think this means he’s stealing information from people’s phones, and the grease is more thematic or metaphorical, and more about the fact that Pig Bill is a pig that makes bacon, which is greasy. It’s also important to note that in this cornerstone episode, Nathfield has a new voice actor. Can you guess who it is?

If you said licensing wizard and world’s youngest Garfield Licensee, Nathen Mazri, you’re correct! Nathen gets some real zingers in on Pig Bill like, “Give up already! Just like the Metaverse, no one’s joining your 5G greasy nano lame-o squad.”

This is such a convincing argument that Pig Bill is absolutely hobbled by it and quickly retreats on a “hoverboard made of frying pans from Walmart.” It’s a nine-minute episode with one minute of theme song, so not a whole lot happens, but everything that does happen is now officially tied to The People’s Party of Canada for life.

This is probably going to shock you, but the People’s Party of Canada currently has no member seated in parliament. They ran 312 candidates in 2021, and none were elected. I don’t love Nathen’s chances of beating the odds and winning his election. Remember, he is running to go after the people who took Garfield away from him—he says that explicitly. This final failed bid for Garfield’s love could put him over the edge.

I’m just kidding. I’m not that worried about Nathen. He’s got a new sidepiece, and it’s The Smurfs.

He’s supposedly been in talks with them about the app he says he’s launching in 2025. It will help small companies secure licenses to sell official branded merchandise from corporate IP holders. I hope The Smurfs love Nathen in a way Garfield never could. If not he will run for Winnipeg City Treasurer and show them who’s boss.

Learning Day: The Walnuts 🌭

“I too am not a bit tamed, I too am untranslatable.” – Lisa Simpson

I forget which episode that’s from, but it always stuck with me, much like every line of every episode of The Simpsons Seasons 3 through 9. But I didn’t call you all into the parlor to talk Simpsons, or even because by converting my entire studio apartment into a parlor it has become the default option. In fact, I discussed The Simpsons in a previous column and do so regularly for a living – emphasis on “disgust.”

Point is, like Lisa I contain multitudes, and most of them are Upsetting. Unfortunately I listened to too much John Mayer in college and now I’m constitutionally incapable of staying inside the lines, so today I present a Learning Day column where we’re going to learn about something very Upsetting together, and I sincerely apologize about the fact that this was unavoidable and for how it will make you feel. No one asked for it, you got it – it’s The Peanuts comic book porn parody!

Again, very sorry. Here is a column with Cheech and Mr. T if that’s more your speed. Neither of them gets fucked by tentacles in it, which is more than I can promise when it comes to The Walnuts. This is an artifact unearthed from particularly deep in the bowels of the internet, where equal page-space is dedicated to content as to ads promising things like THIS GAME WILL MAKE YOU CUM IN 2 MINUTES or JERK OFF WITH SOMEONE NAKED (which is honestly an excellent way to jerk off with someone). Obviously, given the sensitive nature of the subject, I’ll be censoring some of the more graphic bits with a few of my favorite Far Side comics by Gary Larson.

Also if y’all could make sure Alex Schmidt never sees this one, I think we’d both really appreciate it. So like, when I post on Bluesky to promote, don’t tag him in the replies or anything, that almost certainly wouldn’t be very very funny. Alright, let’s get to work on this column! But don’t you do that, because masturbating to what I’m about to show you is illegal in the state you’re in – and I mean metaphysically, like on this plane of existence.

You can’t tell from the cropped cover, but the Walnuts gang are indeed grown up in this, which is itself a relief. The team behind this comic don’t want to fuck kids, just your childhood. Also, as a professional comedy writer I’m duty-bound to note that Peanuts is already so close to “penis” that they probably could have done something with it. But don’t you do something with it, because masturbating to what I’m about to show you is so taboo that as soon as you do it your more judgmental parent automatically knows.

Packing Peanuts. Much better title. That’s free, you can have that.

Great, we’re two panels in and nothing irredeemably evil has yet unfolded. That said, a few things to note about The Walnuts as a work thus far:

🌭 You don’t email a letter.

🌭 “Am I doom to” isn’t anything.

🌭 Uh-oh, Lynus has read The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists.

🌭 Lastly, “Linus” is again so close to the word “penis” that’s probably how I would have handled it. But don’t you handle it, because masturbating to what I’m about to show you is so unnatural it will bring tamagotchis back. And not in a cute, nostalgic way – they’ll be everywhere you go, their electronic cries to be fed and cleaned ubiquitous and inescapable, forming the hideous backdrop of your new Nermal (they are Garfield-themed).

Oh hey, only three billion women? If my googling is accurate, that implies this comic was either poorly researched or made in 1999, although I prefer to believe it takes place on another planet far, far away from here.

Our first exposure to actual human lovemaking is in silhouette, which shows some restraint from the publisher. What doesn’t is calling your imprint JKR COMICS, which given that you make porn could equally represent the words “joker” or “jacker.” Then there’s the elephant in the room – Lynus is a piece of shit. Like, real human garbage. He’s not against same-sex relationships, he literally doesn’t believe they exist. Dudes are out here fuckin’ and Lynus is all “I don’t buy it.”

Protip: if a girl says “come with me” in a way where you can definitely tell she meant “cum” in place of “come,” you’ve entered Sure Thing Territory. Welcum to Favor Cuntry, my friend! This is happening. Not to mention, your mouth is shaped like a white kidney bean and her’s is shaped like a black kidney bean, so it seems like your mouths will probably fit together or snap into place in a pleasing way! It’s kissmet.

Next, Peppercorn Patty asks Charley out, or rather orders him to date her.

Cum to think of it, “Peppermint Patty” is so close to “penisy penis” that I kinda can’t wrap my head around how they missed that. But don’t you wrap your head around a penisy penis, because sucking dick to what I’m about to show you is considered a stain on your Klingon Honor that lingers down to the seventh generation. Even Alexander would bear the shame of your discommendation! Anyway, FYI Charley Brown and Marcia are about to get down to business (sex business), so fair warning. TRY NOT TO CUM IN 2 MINUTES.

Like most sexual encounters, things kick off with Charley either sucking on or repeatedly greeting Marcia’s breast. He continues to sup upon it eagerly until Marcia, wild with desire, falls to her knees to return the favor. The expression on Charley’s face as she wraps her head around his linus is unmistakable – sheer ecstasy.

Maybe mild surprise. Definitely one of those two. The comic then cuts outside to reveal that they’ve been banging in Snoopy’s impossibly large dog house the whole time. This implies either that Snoopy is thirty or the Walnuts gang are still children, just long, poorly-drawn ones.

It’s like they say: if the doghouse is rockin’, Charley Brown’s got his cock in, Marcia’s talk is shockin’ and Tupac’s glock – oh wait, there’s still more.

Gotta be honest, the mental image of jizz squizzing out of Charley Brown’s penis with a mighty SPLERT while he promises more to cum is maybe the most Upsetting moment of this whole Learning Day. So there, that’s one thing we’ve learned already! Learning is fun! For example, after apparently hours of just sitting there on the floor of a dirty doghouse with his penis getting soft inside his mate, Charley again tries to dunk on Marcia’s “performative lesbianism,” thereby learning what bisexual means.

Hey, asked and answered in both cases. Frank and open communication is key to cultivating a healthy DL cheating fuckbuddy hall pass situation with the bisexual girlfriend of the girl you’re taking out to the movies tonight. It’s your basic Three’s Cumpany-type scenario.

Charley does a classic “sad George Michael” walk over to see Patty, wrestling with intricate complexities like a girl not liking you back and casual sex as a concept. Fortunately, he’s about to have an Upsetting Day in Learning Day’s Clothing of his own that’s going to spark a lot of growth and explain a lot.

Wow. So that “we have to find my pussy” thing from earlier was a joke setup. In the writer’s mind they were laying pipe, and not in the way I hope you aren’t right now, because if you are then what I just showed you has caused a hungry Korean ghost to affix to your family as punishment.

That’s essentially the end – or “punch” – of the first issue, and admittedly Lynus wiggling his dump truck ass underneath a beloved childhood blanket long browned from use and age is an image that, for me, will endure. At least until the atrocities of The Walnuts #2 come through and scour them away like brain-Metamucil. As a starter, please note that I was forced to censor the cover because Snoopy (still asleep mind you) is sporting a big hairy red hard doggy dick.

What’s really messed up is, he’s having a sex dream about Woodstock – presumably named Woodsuck in this reality – blowing his brother Spike. It’s non-ironically maybe the best thing I’ve ever seen, and my firstborn son was born a month ago. He’s next to me right now as I write, and instead I’m looking fixedly at this bird sucking this dog’s dick. For you.

Dude, he’s bored of it! He’s not even into it! Major missed opportunity that “SUCK SUCK” isn’t “IIII IIII,” though. Charles Schulz would probably take issue with that, and nothing else about this comic tribute to his life’s work.

As the issue actually picks up, good ol’ Charley Brown is still reeling from walking “in” on his best friend tagging his sister from behind fully outdoors, Crank-style. In retrospect, it’s pretty wild that he didn’t shout “GOOD GRIEF!” but let’s set that aside for now. No Peanuts porn parody would be complete without Lucy, who is apparently still making a living by providing unlicensed psychiatric services from a cardboard box as an adult. That or, again, this is illegal child pornography that you’re reading. Here’s that Alex Schmidt social link again.

There you go, “married for many years.” My pedophilia concerns have finally and at last been put to rest, leaving ample room for other disturbing things to take their place. Lucy is naturally upset to be texted a pic of her man “tickling the ivories,” as they might say in “piano school.”

Wow, that’s…actually true. And like, kind of wise? I suppose whatever Lucy and Charley get up to next will truly define them.

Implied pedophilia is BACK, baby! The young lovers waste no time doing the psychiatrically responsible thing in the face of marital infidelity – rutting like animals.

I tried to pick Far Side comics that actually captured the mood of those middle, filthy panels, so hopefully that gives you some understanding of what lies beneath. Here’s a hint: the snake represents a penis and the dirty dingoes represent that Lucy is about to get anally assaulted by a dog and I really didn’t want that to sneak up on you. Put on your 3-D glasses now.

Seeing Snoopy’s dick is something you can’t take back, much like my place on various government registries upon the release of this article. It doesn’t help that he is by far the best-drawn character in the book, with by far the veiniest cock. Our only real consolation is that he doesn’t appear again after this panel, which I take to mean he was imprisoned and shanked to death by other, less odious inmates. And in fact, that’s all of the sex in the comic done, but not all of the implied pedophilia.

Wait, not implied – explicit and confirmed beyond doubt.

SHROLDER?! Fucking Shrolder? When it already sounds so much like “penis?” At this point, you might be wondering what kind of porn parody has a bunch of backstory it needs to deploy at the end, after the final sex scene. Pretty sure the only other porn parody I’ve ever seen that did that was the gay Memento parody, Guy Piercin’. That made sense though, since it went back-to-front. Don’t you put your back against a front though, because fucking while you read what I’m about to show you is considered the Eighth Deadly Sin and is punishable by Kevin Spacey.

He just gets you. He has you and he gets to do whatever. Although if you are able to have sex during this next part, honestly, kudos. You’re a worse, more disgusting person than I am, and I admire that, which I think makes us tied again.

What comes next is truly shocking.

That’s right, it wasn’t a typo, his name is really Shrolder! Fucking ew. Again, I’m not sure why we’re still locked into the story at this point, but the important thing is that we can tell from Charley’s facial expression that he’s cumming exactly as hard as he did when Marcia sucked him off in the magic doghouse.

Charley Brown’s O-face is most people’s Oh-no-face. Which indeed he yells, which reaches all the way to Shrolder’s ears, since he is also fucking outside like we all do every time. In a wild twist, Shrolder is fucking Charley’s daughter, who he thinks is his own daughter. You might recognize this as the opposite of both the Oedipus Complex and all that is right and good.

In the face of such ruinous filth, one could not be blamed for regressing mentally just as a means of escape! This concludes my essay on How I Spent My Summer Vacation. My best subject is History and when I grow up I want to be a Marine Biologist.
