text from Terry Pratchett; art by Higgs who's tumblr i've linked

i can’t rember which book this is from – i wanna say it’s Men at Arms but it could even be Guards Guards. Higgs seems to think it’s Night Watch, but I’m pretty sure it happened before that…

Folks reading this are already reading Discworld novels, so at least liberals and probably towards the left side of the liberal spectrum.
