From the now pinned [Meta] Getting Bloom County Strips Back On Track

the Bloom County Timeline is currently in shambles. At some point the story line in the book skips around. So, I am going to upload all of the missing strips by month into a single post. The current story line does not actually take place until later on this month, so there will be some repeats.

Thanks, Nocturne. In fact I'd missed this one from before, so appreciate your amazing dedication to this project, once again. 💙

It's really weird that when these get posted as GIFs. Boost (Android) insists on rendering it as a video. Which also means I can't zoom, and can't read on mobile (unless I go landscape)

Sorry to hear that. I will see if I can find a way to batch convert them to png.

Wouldn't a better solution be for the Boost dev to fix their app so it can distinguish between video and image GIFs?

Both are good ideas. I wonder if it is the only one that behaves that way.

I'll see if I can contact them

Yes, but I have no control over that.
