I imagine it might stop very abruptly if Putin decides to share his VHS collection with the Iranians.

"No headphones".

Iran needs a new leader. We have a spare unwanted prince. He and Trump know each other from their days on the island. It all falls into place really.

Understandable to deny beauty prizes to enhanced competitors, but if two-toed Tylopods have managed to master using a syringe then perhaps some kind of achievement medal is in order.

I don't know...
Pilots would need to be trained, it could cross red lines, might be viewed as an escalation. Better if the US gives Iran some American territory instead.
Is that how this works?

tbh, spying on the Sooty Show might yield more intelligence than spying on the actual UK government.

Will JD Vance say "thank you"?

Cartoon showing the dove of peace, but made up of many ruined buildings.

Cartoon showing Netanyahu driving a Trump-shaped mech, firing missiles and shooting a laserbeam from the mouth. Behind the mech, a bomb has fallen on a school. Drones shaped like Esptein files follow the mech.

Cartoon showing a general standing in front of a board with the text 'Operation Epstein distraction'. The general has used a red pen to cross out the letters 'stein' and 'distraction' and replaced them with 'ic' and 'fury'. Trump is sitting, looking up at the board. The caption reads 'Let's not be too obvious, Sir.

Cartoon showing Trump as a little boy with his finger in a dike. Water labeled 'Truth' is about to spill over the dyke. An elephant is running away.

For no particular breaking topical reason, a recent (award-winning) cartoon.

Morning warm-up doodles that got out of hand.

Byatollah.
Thin skinned chap. Didn't much care for this one from Charlie Hebdo.

I cannot regret the ayatollah and his thugs getting some justice meted out to them. But I wish this had been delivered back when the US promised Iranian protesters “help is on the way”, instead of weeks later once tens of thousands of them have been murdered by the regime.

Feel I should bung a cartoon in for good measure, so as not to let the side down.

"Assemble the Board of Peace - I'm starting a war".

My cartoon in the current edition of The Critic Magazine.
Quite possibly the bleakest thing I've had in print. Still, today suggests common sense might prevail.

Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement

Not surprising that these people issue these orders. Very troubling that the military go along with it, though.

All is well.

I suppose these sorts of things are likely to happen if you stubbornly refuse to stand by a window or touch your tea.

Well, if you can't trust 'the Prince of Darkness', who can you trust?

With a sense of smell 14 times better than our own, cats are able to recognise the scent of pheromones, hormones and rejection. #FunFact

I've paid my dues Time after time I've done my sentence But committed no crime And bad mistakes I've made a few I've had my share of sand kicked in my face But I've come through (We're gonna go on and on and on and on) We are the champions, my friend And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions We are the champions No time for losers Cause we are the champions Of the world I've taken my bows And my curtain calls You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it I thank you all But it's been no bed of roses No pleasure cruise I consider it a challenge before the whole human race And I ain't gonna lose (We're gonna go on and on and on and on) We are the champions, my friends And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions We are the champions No time for losers Cause we are the champions of the world We are the champions, my friends And we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the champions We are the champions No time for losers Cause we are the champions Of the world
