Cartoon Saturday

The new month is just a day old. Take a deep breath ... we'll get through it, despite the relentlessly depressing news. 

Two former "Proud Boys" figures received long prison sentences for their actions in the January 6th Capitol insurrection; a doctor has approved Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's return to work after a second incident in which he froze and appeared to be confused during a live interview; The Pentagon announced the launch of a new website which will provide the public with declassified information about flying saucers, once known as UFOs, but now officially called "unidentified anomalous phenomena;" a Boston-area sheriff's deputy, angered about what he perceived as a corrupt justice system, has been arrested for trying to enlist other law enforcement officers to blow up a courthouse and murder police and court officials; and in Oregon, authorities are searching for an "extremely dangerous" man who reportedly escaped from police custody while fully restrained with leg shackles, a belly chain, handcuffs, and a restraint connecting all three together.

It's been a hot summer, and the heat is often more an issue for ladies who have to shave in all sorts of places to meet our cultural expectations of beauty. I personally don't care, but many people do, and so here's a late-summer collection of cartoons about ladies' struggles with hair in unwanted places ...

Yes, this is a definite advantage of online shopping ...

Timing is everything ...

I guess this has been going on for a long time ...

Perhaps it's also why Rapunzel wears long sleeves, too ...

Medusa is always good for a few cartoons on a lot of topics ...

As I was saying ...

I guess it's not just human ladies who do it ...

Expectations often collide with reality ...

Good guess ...

Good question ...

Lest things get too ... hairy, I'll just stop now.

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when we revisit a plague worse than Covid.
