Yeezy Peasy

When President Donald Trump needs a plan sometimes it comes to him Yeezy Peasy.

Back in 2015 Kanye West stated at the MTV Music Awards that he would run for President of the United States in 2020. Five years later his good friend Donald Trump is President and the numbers don’t look so “bigly” for his reelection campaign. So how would you try to pull away votes from your opponent Joe Biden. Best thing to do is target those who overwhelmingly identify as Democrats (and wouldn’t be voting for Trump anyway) such as Millennials and African Americans by given them another option. Which led to this announcement from West this week:

Obviously Kanye is joking and isn’t running because IMO there is no way he can get enough boots on the ground to get on the ballot as a third party candidate (unless he plans only write-in). But conspiracy theorists are talking.

Why there is nothing to watch on Netflix

Today’s cartoon is inspired by our friends at Netflix. Of course when you have vacation time over the holidays you tend to have some quality TV time as well. Don’t get me wrong, Netflix does have some decent things but have you ever tried to search for a movie to watch or something other than Stranger Things/Punisher (two I enjoy)? But it seems they don’t have to put on a ton of great shows because as long as you find something to watch suddenly you forget the hours spent trying to find something to watch.

I have heard tales of people spending 10-15 minutes scrolling to find something to watch. Just like our cartoon desert wanderer looking for a bit of nourishment, it is hard to come by. That’s why when something new finally pops up on the service, the internet seems to react like it is the best thing in the world. Sometimes it is good, sometimes it is a shit sandwich.

With $8 Billion to spend on programming this year I would hope to find a lot more “Bright” spots (which I actually liked and the critics hated) and fewer “Iron Fists”.

What are you watching or not on Netflix??

I is for Indian Elephant

I is for Indian Elephant. The Indian Elephant found in Asia (and not only India). Vegetarians who eat Bark, grass and roots, these elephants are known for eating up to 19 hours a day and producing, as the cartoon shows, 220lbs of dung a day. That needs a S**tload of toilet paper.

Nosy Moms

Happy Mothers Day Nosy Moms!!! Well isn’t every mom nosy and prying? I mean that is what they are supposed to do. Years ago someone I knew named Doug recounted this story to me as he was in his mid 30’s and his mother was pressuring him to get married. His response was so classic I somehow remembered it the other day and had to post for all of you for Mothers Day.

Happy Mothers Day to my mom…who never comes to my site so she can’t smack me for making fun of old ladies. 🙂

D is for Dugong

D is for Dugong. Animal Alphabets continues with the Dugong. Those in the U.S. who are familiar with the manatee will recognize the similarities with the Dugong. The Dugong is found closer to Australia.

Mostly herbivore they tend to seek seagrass and using their flexible upper lip they can dig out the plants whole. Thus my reference in the cartoon to King Titon (or Neptune) using the Dugong as an ocean floor vacuum.

Tooning Trump’s Tweets – Bayer

Trump cartoons will be all the rage as the new President is sworn in. Today is a milestone day in American Politics. Sure, sure, we are going to swear in a new President, Donald J. Trump. But more importantly he has inspired a new cartoon series from me. “Tooning Trump’s Tweets”, is where I take the funniest source material I can find, President Trump’s ACTUAL tweets on twitter, and cartoon them. No better Trump cartoons out there than that which comes from his own mouth (or fingers).

So our inaugural (hehe) cartoon is based on a statement he made last week about all the new jobs he is bringing (or keeping) in the US. This one about Bayer inspired the thoughts of them selling a crapload of aspirin for the next four years. hmmm…maybe I should be buying stock in Bayer.

The Anatomy of Hillary Clinton
I have been poking fun at the right for a while so it is time for Hillary Clinton and the left to get their turn. In case you missed my Anatomy of Ted Cruz, it is here.

Grim Reaper’s Fortune

The Grim Reaper has been a busy entity in 2016 with all the celebrity deaths. Dan Soto sent me this idea on Facebook so I ran with it. I can only imagine the Grim Reaper being happy about this fortune in his fortune cookie.

March Madness Vasectomy

So today’s cartoon is another learning fact. It seems that more men schedule vasectomies during this time of year than any other. Why? They want to take time off work for their recovery to take advantage of watching the NCAA Basketball Tournament. Get a vasectomy? March Madness indeed.

What crazy thing have you done to get out of work?
