The Biden Administration spent its first month gaslighting everyone about the $2000 and trying to connive ways to give “the remainder” to less people while telling the media about how bold they’re being

Don’t think it reads as such, but I redesigned Anthropomorphic Republican Talking Duck in 2007 to sorta vaguely resemble Rush Limbaugh. This one was the most direct reference to him, a play on the Sandra Fluke thing.

2020 FILM IN REVIEW

Continuing this again, why not! This year I watched way way more movies this year than for obvious reasons (the release of HBO Max). I’ve made serious headway into my watchlist and there’s still so much more to see, which makes me acutely aware of my mortality. I also got a Letterboxd account which satisfies my compulsive need to tag things.

Best film I saw in 2020: Yi Yi

Best film I saw in 2020 that was released in 2020: Live From the Space Stage: A Halyx Story

Worst film I saw in 2020: I bought a DVD collection of old movies at Ross over a decade ago but I never watched any of them until this year, at a pace of one a month. It turns out they’re all public domain movies (despite this, each DVD starts with a hilarious CGI-animated FBI warning of a guy in jail) of extremely varying quality. So far The Inspector General is the least watchable one.

Good movie that was maybe not the best choice for quarantine viewing: Aniara

Best character name: Leopold Dilg from The Talk of the Town

Funniest movie: The Wrong Guy

I quietly brought back my Simpsons news blog a couple months ago. It’s been redesigned with a mobile-friendly layout, tags have been added to every post, and I drew a spiffy new background for it.

Some recent stories:

• You Won’t BELIEVE Who Homer Simpson’s Boss Is!
• Simpsons Writer COMPLETELY EVISCERATES Spicy Nugget!!!
• 17 Simpsons Characters Who Definitely Voted For Trump

I’ve been having a lot of fun making incredibly stupid stuff during these dismal times.

Over the years I’d have an idea for an Anthropomorphic Republican Talking Duck comic but I didn’t have the time or strive to do it, and then the moment would pass and it seemed silly to do something that was already outdated. Now my thinking is… why not just do them anyway. I came up with this one in either 2016 or early 2017:
