I recently participated in this Fast Company roundtable interview about political cartooning in a broken media landscape. I have to say, the sample art that they chose from my comic for the feature image is perfectly timed.

KEY CONCEPTS
As our climate heats up, all four seasons are warming — but at different rates across the U.S.

Winter was the fastest-warming season for 76% (185) of the 245 U.S. locations analyzed by Climate Central.

Locations with the fastest winter warming since 1970 were found from coast to coast but were clustered in the Northeast, Southeast, and Ohio Valley regions — disrupting snowfall patterns.

in reply to GailWaldby@bsky.social❌👑

Fall and spring were the fastest-warming seasons for many (31) western U.S. locations, raising risks of longer pest and allergy seasons and earlier snow melt, which can stretch water supplies thin.

Some locations in the West and Northwest saw summers warm most quickly, increasing the risks associated with wildfire, heat extremes, and poor air quality.

"The scum that worked to convict him were some of the same lunatics who were involved in the modern day weaponization of #government against me," Trump said in a post on his social #media platform #TruthSocial.


US President hardly distinguishable from organized #crime. If Trump is taken out of office, there is no longer any difference between him and the #mafia.
