Don't have much to say. I took the job because I was supposed to be the main cartoonist. Now I find myself without a job. And that's all I have to say. I'd like to get a job at another newspaper. Ha like it's easy. But I have a plan I want to try first. Something different. Coming soon I guess.

WaPo's Lily Lines and The Nib both end today
From the last LL newsletter (500 comics!) -
For six years, it's been our pleasure to deliver essential stories about gender and identity to your inbox with Lily Lines. During this time, the Lily team made an award-winning documentary, published nearly 500 comics, read dozens of books together and shared plenty of Your Takes. More recently, one of our former team members, Caroline Kitchener, won a Pulitzer Prize for her reporting on abortion — stories that were always a priority for the Lily and its readers.
As the team takes on new roles at The Post dedicated to this coverage, this is the final issue of the Lily Lines newsletter. You can still find our reporting and perspectives on gender and identity across the site, but especially in our reimagined Style section, which launches soon.
The corresponding Style Memo newsletter will cover the personalities, conversations and cultural trends that shape American life. Lily Lines readers have been signed up to receive it in their inbox starting Sept. 8.
Until next time,
Team Lily 🖤

Mission Accomplished by Daniel Boris
Taking a pause from the current GOP spectacle unfolding on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to comment on a broader issue in American politics: Our political party system simply needs to... go away.

Werewolves vs Vampires by Daniel Boris [updated]
Herschel Walker recently said, "I don't know if you know, but vampires are some cool people, are they not? Let me tell you something that I found out: A werewolf can kill a vampire."
Sometimes these cartoons write themselves...

Clay Jones buries his conservative COVID-denying colleagues
by Mike Rhode
In his cartoon from yesterday "Urine Trouble," Clay planted a bunch of conservative cartoonists, many of whom are anti-vaxxers or covid denyers, under a bunch of tombstones. I see Scott "Dilbert" Adams, Henry Payne, Al Goodwyn, Mike Lester, Branco, Chip Bok, Glenn McCoy, Gary McCoy, Tom Stiglich, Rivers, Lisa Benson, David Hitch, Dick Wright, Bob Gorrell, Steve Kelley, Gary Varvel, Dana Summers, and of course, Ben Garrison.
Christopher Key is not a cartoonist, but a nut who screams at people about being the vaccine police, and is the focus of Jones' blog post.
When asked for a comment, Clay addressed his technique, "The reason I made the lettering on the headstones faint is that I didn't want to make it the focus of the cartoon. It's supposed to be more like Easter eggs, but I struggled with making them faint while also making them clear enough to see." About the content, he said, "I only aimed at anti-vaxxers or those who have politicized the pandemic. I excluded conservatives like Scott Stantis, Michael Ramirez, and Rick McKee because I've seen them promote the vaccines and ridicule the lunatics."
