A "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer 9.75-ft LED Bumble Animatronic Yard Decoration" on sale for $498.

Perpetually difficult for me to wrap my mind around the larger economic / political environment when 10' tall, $500 yard animatronics are still selling.

Comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. Calvin's mom is eating dinner and saying "Life could be wortse, Calvin". Calvin is shouting back "Life could be a lot better, too!" I have humorously added the DNC logo to Calvin's Mom and the Zohran for NYC logo to Calvin.
