Well this sucks. I’m sure I’ll find funny things to make cartoons about, while also amplifying ways to help people who are going to be most affected by the implementation of Project 2025, but for now I’m just swinging between rage and grief. Listening to comedy podcasts while drawing this was the first break my brain’s had since Tuesday night.

Pardon my sincerity. Shit is fucked up, and everyone who cares needs to chip in to unfuck it. We can’t let morons raging blindly about the price of eggs have the last word.

Election Anxiety Remedies

With less than a week to go until votes are finally counted, people’s election madness has reached a fever pitch. A lot of people have channeled that energy into productive uses, but the one’s who haven’t can’t stop clogging our timelines with increasingly panicked posts.

While there’s still a few days to get out the vote with phone banks and canvassing, ballot curing is a process I didn’t know much about until recently. 33 states allow voters whose ballots were rejected to correct issues over various timeframes. Getting in touch with those voters and helping them through that process requires lots of volunteers.

There are several organizations that do this, but one I’ve found that lets us slobs in non-swing states easily volunteer can be found here.

Hopefully there will be a decisive winner by next week’s cartoon, but I’m sure there will be plenty of coup attempts and other shenanigans going on for months to come.

Stay sane, everyone!

Everyone persuadable has heard the moral cases to vote against Donald Trump. If that hasn’t motivated them to vote, I’m not sure anything will. So I offer this very selfish reason to want Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to win in less than two weeks.

I’m very tired of reading about, thinking about, and drawing this vile human being. I was in my mid-thirties when he first descended that gilded escalator. I’m now 45 and would like to use a palette that doesn’t include that orange makeup, blue suit, or red tie before I hit my fifties. Let your voice be heard and Make Brian Draw Farts Again!

There are positive reasons to vote FOR Harris-Walz, not just AGAINST Trump, but that’s enough for me. No one should waste time arguing with people who can’t stomach voting for whatever reason. The goal is to get out the vote (in swings states, the rest of us can pound sand), not win arguments online. If someone’s not budging, move on to someone who is. There’s less than two weeks left!

Campaign Closers

There’s still over two weeks left, and anything can happen, etc., but I’m voting early this weekend and ready for this to be over. And judging from Trump’s town-hall-turned-dance-party, so is he. They’ll still attempt to steal it, but if the coup has the same energy as their campaign events, it’ll be more funny than scary.

The Harris campaign is actually campaigning, and will be through election day. I’m hoping they stop kissing centrists’ butts immediately after, but for now, to avoid getting yelled at by people suffering from severe election anxiety, I won’t say anything else.

V.P. Debate Preview

There are probably a dozen undecided voters whose fickle minds will be decided by Tuesday’s vice presidential debate. For everyone else, it will be a chance to goof on J.D. Vance some more.

Nothing Republicans have thrown at Tim Walz in return has stuck. He just comes across as a normal nice white guy, whose mere existence makes the weird and evil white guys look even worse by comparison.

Meet the Election Animals

With less than two months until the election, “Shut up and vote!” season is in full swing. Any legitimate criticism of the Harris campaign will be met with shrieks of “Why do you want to Trump to win?!”

The campaign managed the transition on such a short timeframe very well, except for Harris’s abysmal handling the current administration’s (which she’s a part of!) handling of the nearly year-long genocide in Gaza. Atrocities keep being revealed and met with shrugs. Not having a single Palestinian speak at the DNC was certainly a choice. Maybe ignoring them is the best political strategy, but it’s not the moral one.

Not that I’m some brave truth-teller. I could’ve done a whole cartoon about it instead of hedging my bets with only one panel tucked into the middle of a comic.

Trump Campaign Events

The week after Labor Day is usually when campaigns really kick off, but Trump isn’t doing anything until Saturday. Even Biden has done more campaign events, and he ostensibly withdrew from the race because he couldn’t keep pace with Trump.

This won’t be all presidential election stuff for the next eight weeks (plus additional time for coup attempts), but I took a long weekend and was slow to catch up on anything else this week. Unless something incredibly riffable happens at next week’s debate, I’ll probably do something about our other ongoing disasters to give my sense of dread something else to chew on for a while.
