That's it! Thanks!
Writer, or something. And... a button? 🖲️
This was a kids' book or comic, color illustrations and all. I must have read in in the 00's, but for all I know it was from the 90's. It was about cavemen and one was an inventor who was ignored. I remember being surprised that the cavewomen was bare chested. There was also a line about the inventor talking about fruit juice and someone that I think was his dad saying that fruit was a type of lump and that juice was like water, so fruit juice was lumpy water. Everyone thought that the inventor was crazy and would end up like those weirdos that paint on walls and in the end he did.
