Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Tough Decisions at Tesla"
From DC's anarchist cartoonist, Mike Flugennock -
"Tough Decisions At Tesla"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=2993
So... after a week or two of stomping his little feet and threatening to hold his breath until he turned blue, spoiled rotten rich punk Elon Musk re-opened his Tesla plant in California in defiance of that state's "stay-at-home" order, because he couldn't stand to lose a penny of profit on his overpriced electric hot rods.
Subsequently, this past Tuesday, Sputnik International published this report on the situation headlined "Tesla Workers Faced With Tough Decisions as Elon Musk Re-Opens California Factory"...

Politics and Prose Live! May 14 2020
Join us for an afternoon with three graphic novelists as they discuss their delightful new releases. Each artist will share their art onscreen or do a live drawing demonstration. In the first graphic novel starring the world-famous mystery-solving mouse, Geronimo Stilton tries to uncover the source of a terrible smell pervading New Mouse City. Self-doubt is a major theme in Nat Enough, which follows a middle schooler who constantly compares herself to others. Difficult decisions abound in Trespassers, as a 13-year-old and her new friend break into an abandoned lake house to investigate the disappearance of the wealthy couple who lived there. Ages 8-13.
