Cartoon Saturday

Can it be that we're only two weeks into May?

Donald Trump fired FBI Director James Comey this week, for reasons that seemed to shift depending on the day of the week and the administration spokesperson doing the explaining; in India, at least 24 people were killed when a wall collapsed onto guests attending a wedding; Donald Trump met this week with Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov and ambassador Sergey Kislyak at a meeting from which American ... but not Russian journalists were barred; workers in New Orleans, wearing masks and body armor and under heavy police guard, took down a statue of Confederate president Jefferson Davis in the early hours of Thursday morning; and in California, a school of 25 great white sharks was spotted off Capistrano Beach* on Wednesday.

The way the news has been lately, before long we'll all need professional therapy to cope. This week's cartoons deal, thus, with therapy ...

Baby steps ...

Well, why not? ...

Every blogger can relate to this one ...

Some celebrities need therapy, too ...

I can relate to this one ...

Unfortunately, this is the group we need more and more nowadays ...

Even superheroes get the blues ...

Yes, that would tend to spike the need for therapy ...

Psychiatric pit crew ...

It's true ... just ask the firm of Bannon and Trump ...

Today will be another rainy, chilly day here in NoVa, perfect for watching our granddaughter take part in her latest rock-climbing competition, this time at Earth Treks in Rockville. Perhaps by tomorrow the rain will end, and I can get back to work in the garden ... if our neighbor has moved his double-parked ark by then.

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow.
