🥂"Happy New Year” Edition
Happy New Year, and welcome to Counterpoint, arriving uncomfotably on New Year’s Day like a party guest who stayed up too late, ate too much, and still insists on having one last cocktail.
The champagne is flat, the resolutions are fragile, and the calendar has flipped with all the optimism of a clean page that will soon be covered in scribbles. It’s the one day of the year when time feels briefly suspended: before the news, the bills, and the consequences start to intrude on your reality again.
So settle in with your coffee, your aspirin, your Xanax, or whatever recovery plan a new year requires. We promise cartoons, commentary, and just enough whimsy to ease you into the year ahead—before the metaphorical shit hits the fan yet again.

Outstanding as usual; thanks to you and to all those brilliant graphic commentators. I'm counting on them to keep us able to laugh at the horrors I fear/expect we'll see in the new year. At the moment, it's a happy one; I haven't read the news yet. Best wishes to all.
The result of the New Year 'toons: Another year of more of 2025.....................Trump and MAGA continue................RESIST!
