A cartoon illustration showing a very stressed Cthulhu looking at news on his phone.

The daily news cycle was even bumming Cthulhu out. #grickledoodle #horror #news #cthulhu #lovecraftian #cartoon #art #drawing #funny #humor

A cartoon of two women chatting over a stall of some kind laden with produce and goods, possibly in a farmers' market or something. The woman behind the stall, resplendent in a fetching apron is saying, "I had a dream, so I followed my dream, and now I'm bloody stuck with it."

Stuck with it.
Dream on.

I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated.

Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.) 

But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world
