Amen, Calvin! YOU ARE HERE is frighteningly true.

Sometimes I feel like the cat.

Frank said...

These all understate the reality! The US political atrocities bombard us hourly, I can't keep up. Not to mention the natural disasters: fires, floods, extreme temperatures. And of course wars, famine, economic collapse. And you have cheerier news tomorrow? Can't wait.

Val Ewing said...

Yes. I would like to put my head in the sand right now.

Mistress Maddie said...

The dumpster fire. And even some days that's hard to make pretty.

Travel said...

Calvin kind of says it all.

Tom said...

...Calvin is right!

Tomorrow will be brighter than today.

Bob said...

The parfait speaks for us all.

Ms. Moon said...

And how would we survive without humor?

Cleora Borealis said...

🌞 But, you did cheer me Debra! You gave me a spirit kitty that is at its fucking limit! I will hug it close all day!! 😻

Sixpence Notthewiser said...

Hahaha
I am LITERALLY Christopher Walken there.
And that Venn Diagram? Absolutely accurate.

XOXO

BSB said...

Best bullshit so far today
Well done!!
Do it again. We can take it!!

Leanna said...

I'm with BSB. I can take it. I'm numb from the neck up. Well sorta, kinda.

ArcticFox said...

the metronome is a great analogy.... this whole world seems set up to keep us flip flopping between this and that without actually gaining any momentum or direction

e said...

All too true! Love the dumpster fire. These did give me a chuckle, but a sad, rueful one. Looking forward to tomorrow!

Tundra Bunny said...

It's impossible to be Suzy Sunshine without a lot of good weed these days, LOL!

I miss Calvin and Hobbes

I'm pretty sure I make that Christopher Walken face everyday.

It's all ebb and flow. Some days are better than others, but you keep sharing all the joy and things will look up for your readers!

DVArtist said...

All of these are great. I love the 3rd to last one. That's my mantra. We are so fucked.

Kirk said...

Actually, this post was kind of cheery, assuming amusement is a form of cheer.

Jennifer said...

Oh God. I'm so sick of this country I could scream.

Rade said...

...and just when you think "This is as bad as it can get", wait, there's more.

Seriously... SERIOUSLY... contemplating moving to Canada.

Rade said...

Wonderful collection! Thank you!

baili said...

I believe in Calvin!
Remarkable and so true every meme

We are in era where life is super loaded with all kinds of facilities but do we have left any life in hands ?
We are cutting the only branch we sit on,so unfortunate it is

Margaret (Peggy or Peg too) said...

I feel like the man in bed. I'm tired, sick and weary from our world here in US

Mike said...

I'd like to throw tRUMP into that dumpster fire.

DB Stewart said...

Last year felt more Handmaid's Tale. This year? Logan's Run for sure. Sigh.

Polly said...

ooohh, that venn circle is grim ☹

How do we know said...

Love all of these, but Lord Calvin rules as usual!
