Hitch's caricature's are just as elaborate as Telnaes' but I never recognize any of them? And for that matter, I generally have no idea what he's talking about. Are his cartoons directed at a specific state?

Or maybe he just has a caricature drawing side-hustle in the city park and he wants everyone to know. "Hey kid, you like roller skates and t-shirts with nonsense phrases? Sure, ya do!"

So to figure out what Rall’s cartoon on schools not outing trans students meant, I listened to his podcast. A podcast with Stantis as the only other person, so please understand my sacrifice.

*Bottom line, Rall thinks the trans movement is happening too fast. You can tell it’s his own discomfort with trans people fueling this
*He finds both Jenner’s and Mulvaney’s transitions “freaky” because the former is “ugly” and the latter is “cute.”
*He didn’t understand how a seven-year-old could be intersex, which is even sadder since intersex is a biological condition that makes it different when it comes to gender identity. It’s clear he’s done zero research on this.
*There are “zero trans political cartoonists.” Please inform Matt Lubchansky and Alison Sayers that they in fact do not exist. And that’s just two I know off the top of my head
*Rall is against trans women in women’s sports
*He thinks cis is hypocritical because trans people wants to be called something and not forced to be called something else, but then they force him to be called cis. Thank god he decided to be called a white heterosexual male cartoonist.

So yeah, Rall’s take is extremely liberal in that he’s superficially supportive until he has to deal with it personally.

Let's do a brief retrospective of Prickly City this week.


Okay, talking about how the media's focus can distort our perception. A fine topic, I'm sure Stantis will realize he has nothing more to say about it and the story will peter out.


Or just immediately drop it.
Then Carmen, apropos of nothing whatsoever spontaneously says "The torch has been passed!" What torch? What torch has been passed in summer of 2023? I don't know, but apparently the expected outcome is for the seeming front-runners of the 2024 presidential election to respond for some reason?


You can't do that on television political cartoons!

The mascots of our major political parties angrily ram into each other exploding into green goo which covers both of our protagonists.
Then Carmen, again, apropos of poo poo all, quotes the declaration of independence.
Like the only coherent interpretation of these two comics is that getting covered in mascot slime was the last straw for Carmen and now she's openly advocating violent revolution.

I think, Stantis may have had a mental break?
