The Weekly Cartoon Will Continue Until Morale Improves

One must admire the steadfast resolve of certain publications to soldier on, come what may. Indeed, as the geopolitical landscape continues its fascinating descent into a series of increasingly less amusing farces, and the planet itself appears intent on demonstrating new and exciting ways to spontaneously combust, we can all rest easy knowing one thing remains constant: the weekly cartoon. It’s not just a drawing, you understand; it’s a commitment, a pillar of artistic defiance in an age demanding… well, anything else.

Consider the immense strategic planning that must go into this regular pictorial missive. While the rest of the news cycle grapples with the existential quagmire of global crises, a dedicated team, presumably operating out of a bunker, meticulously crafts a single panel. This, they hope, will be the subtle push that tips public opinion towards universal contentment.

And so it shall continue, an unwavering beacon of pencilled hope. Through wars, famines, and the slow, agonizing death of common sense, the cartoon will arrive. Because, clearly, the underlying issue isn't the issues themselves, but simply a lack of a cleverly captioned line drawing. The editorial process demands nothing less.
