Cartoon Saturday

It just gets better and better ...

The House of Representatives for the first time passed a bill to decriminalize cannabis, removing it from the list of federally controlled substances and erasing certain federal convictions for its use; public health officials in five San Francisco Bay Area counties issued a new stay-at-home order requiring some businesses to close and banning all gatherings, as the number of virus cases surge and hospitals fill; Der Furor's administration has refused to allow members of President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team to meet with officials at U.S. intelligence agencies controlled by the Pentagon, undermining efforts for a smooth transfer of power; after weeks of failed lawsuits seeking to overturn the results of the Presidential election, the Trump campaign suffered another blow this week when the Pennsylvania Supreme Court rejected efforts to reverse the commonwealth’s election results; and a 5-year-old student in Stafford County, Virginia, reportedly brought a gun to school after he grabbed the wrong backpack from the car when being dropped off.

This week, because the news is all so bad, why not a few cartoons to make us laugh about the news media?

That's pretty much how I feel most days ...

Spoiler alert!

Ah, the smell of rotting brains ...

I suspect it can be scientifically proven that anything will offend somebody, who will then file a frivolous lawsuit about it ...

I need a pair of those glasses ...

Yes, that's definitely how it works ...

"All over but the shouting" should be the expression of the year ...

I feel that old, sometimes ...

Nothing makes me want to change the channel more than a bunch of shouting heads interrupting and talking over each other ... unless it's Der Furor fulminating about his disgrace du jour ...

Sometimes, you just need to focus on the right things ...

We interrupt this post for a breaking news bulletin: the weekend has started! Be sure to come back after this message for Poetry Sunday!

Have a good day. More thoughts coming.
