Well, we thought July would never end ... and then came August ...
The thundering herd of Democratic presidential candidates conducted their second circular firing squad ... uh ... debate this past week; Saudi Arabia took a tentative step into the 20th century* by announcing that women over the age of 21 may now apply for a passport without the approval of a male relative; Der Furor announced that he will impose new tariffs on $300 billion of Chinese goods in his latest replacement of statesmanship with misunderstanding of economic reality; the son of former al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, Hamza bin Laden, was reported killed; and the administration is preparing to withdraw thousands of troops from Afghanistan in exchange for concessions from the Taliban, including a cease-fire, a renunciation of al-Qaeda, and an agreement that the Taliban will begin negotiating a larger peace deal directly with the Afghan government**.
Climate change isn't really a laughing matter, but since those in a position to do something about it think it is, why not give them something to really laugh at ...
Animals have to learn how to adapt to the changes ...
People are learning to adapt, too ...
Even gangsters are adapting ...
Climate change adaptation in Hell ...
Well, they're making the GOP angry in any case ...
Architecture can be adapted for climate change, too ...
Yeah, that's all it is ... Der Furor says so ...
It's not exactly climate change, but it still requires adaptation ...
The late-21st-century answer to the standard interview question ...
It's even tough on the gods ...
And there you have it - the Climate Change Edition of Cartoon Saturday to welcome the month of August. I hope you enjoyed it ... if you didn't, well, there are a few million other blogs out there you can read instead.
Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday returns. See you then.
