This is a year-in-review opinion cartoon post.
From the January 6th Coup Klutz Klan to COVID vaccine resistance, bass-ackward state politics, Alabama sports victories and tributes to icons and victims of devastation, there was plenty to draw from in 2021. Take your time and scroll thru this gallery that tells the stories of whatever-it-was we just witnessed.
Thanks for your readership, patience, passion, support and criticism. The discourse is important. It’s fuel. We’re all in this together. Much love to y’all. It’s tough love sometimes, but it’s all love.
