Is this the only comic that can be made about the Taliban without me getting my head cut off? Maybe, only time will tell, and I’ve heard time is being coy these days about telling us anything.

I had a whole lot of great gags written here but WordPress deleted it all. So this post is going to be much more brief.

Auckland just got it’s first lockdown in about a year due to someone walking in some Delta variant from Australia. Nice one guys I hope it was worth it. Although in all honesty I haven’t noticed any difference. I’ve been on paternity leave lockdown since Little Man was born. So my life has not been impacted at all.

“They tell me there’s no cure and that I’ll only last a few more months. In the meantime...”

An unrealistically high angle view of the man in his chair, making him look small and helpless. Terrifying monsters loom over him and coil around his body, leering grotesquely.
“I can still dream.”
