Happy New Year! (Almost.)
As we begin to ring in the new year, I wanted to share a little Baby New Year drawing with you . . . and some cartoons from the past year.
I decided the baby should have his/her fingers crossed since there is potential for some serious awfulness in 2024 — a Trump victory, a widening war in Gaza and the continued grinding war in Ukraine to name just a few.
But for now, let’s stay positive! (And focus on the cute baby, okay?)
It’s been a difficult year, and I’ve only recently realized that I really miss mocking Ron DeSantis.
It turns out running for president based on how much you hate Disney and woke people isn’t really a winning strategy.
Before he (hopefully) fades into the sunset, here are a couple of cartoons from the past year that were inspired by DeSantis.
Even though Florida’s anti-woke governor isn’t the main character in this animation, he is the creator of Right-Wing Rattie.
Sigh. If only anti-woke idiots were our biggest problem.
Unfortunately, 2023 was marked by a former president trying to escape justice . . .
Justices trying to escape justice . . .
And another horrific war . . .
Meanwhile, the U.S. House of Representatives is now led by a Friend o’ Creationists who thinks Rome fell because it was too gay . . .
You can of course see the entire year’s worth of cartoons and animation here, here or here!
Thank you so much for following my cartoons — and an extra-special thanks to those of you who help support my work by contributing here on Substack or over on Patreon!
Happy New Year, I’ll see you back here very soon!
