ABOUT THE BOOK

An anthology of funny, poignant, and entertaining cartoons, biographical sketches, and social history all in one,
Very Funny Ladies: The New Yorker's Women Cartoonists (March 2022) offers a unique slant on 20th-century and early 21st-century America through the humorous perspectives of the talented women who have captured in pictures and captions many of the key social issues of their time. Liza Donnelly provides distinctive insights on the creative process, the relationships between artists and editors, what it means to be a female cartoonist, and the personalities of the other New Yorker women cartoonists, whom she has known over the years.

Featuring more than seventy cartoons, along with photographs and self-portraits of the cartoonists, and never-before-published material from The New Yorker archives, Very Funny Ladies is a history of the women of the past who drew cartoons and a celebration of the recent explosion of new talent from cartoonists who are women.

About Clay Jones

Clay Jones was often sent to the principal's office as a child for making fun of his classmates and teachers with his drawings. He discovered at a young age he had a knack for making fun of people and he decided later to make it a career and focus on those more deserving of his sarcastic rage: politicians (mostly Republicans). He went from drawing simple Crayola caricatures of his friends in elementary school to full-sized comic books by the time he was in high school to being in the pages of Newsweek in his 20s.

Jones' cartoons have entertained readers in The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, The Chicago Sun-Times, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, USA Today and Newsweek magazine.

He has also created commissioned cartoons and covers for Orlando Weekly, the City Pulse (Lansing, Michigan), The Seattle TimesThe Daily DotThe Independent (St. George, Utah), the Longview News Journal in Texas, The Herald Dispatch in Huntington (West Virginia), the News-Enterprise in Elizabethtown (Kentucky), the Dorchester Reporter (Massachusetts), and the Emmitsburg News-Journal (Maryland). He's also done special projects for the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy and the New Labor Forum. His work has also been seen on the Rachel Maddow Show and Velshi and Ruhle on MSNBC.

Jones is currently drawing one cartoon each week for the CNN Opinion Newsletter.

Jones was a finalist for the Herblock Prize in 2019 and a finalist for the National Headliner Award in 2020. Sometimes, he wins, too. He has been the recipient of numerous awards in Hawaii and Virginia and three consecutive first-place awards from the Mississippi Press Association. In 2018, a cartoon drawn for The Highlands Current in New York  placed in the New York Press Association's Better Newspaper Contest, and won Best Cartoon in the National Newspaper Association's Better Newspaper Contest.

Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Ode To Joy"

from DC's anarchist cartoonist Mike Flugennock -

***** LATE-ISH NEWS *****

By this point, you all have figured out that I've been bounced from 
Twitter for good. A few weeks ago, I was served with a "permanent 
suspension" with no reason given, no "offending" tweets cited, no 
nothing, just gone. They gave me an opportunity to appeal, but with no  1actual reason given...? Bah, screw it.

So... if any of you have the spare moments and are up to it, it'd be 
really sweet if you could post the links/titles/images out of your 
accounts when I drop a new piece... something just, like...

"Latest'n'Greatest from Mike Flugennock: 'the Title'
#HastagThis #HashtagThat
http://whatever the blog link is..."

...that I can toss in at the end of the 'press release'.

Meanwhile, you can find me on Mastodon (Twitter, but far better) at:
https://mastodon.social/@flugennock

...on Pixelfed (like Instagram/Facebook-ish, but far better) at:
https://pixelfed.social/i/web/profile/390704233319834702

...and I've begun regularly using my Instagram at:
https://www.instagram.com/flugennock/

Thanks again in advance, and now — after a few weeks' break to master some fresh new media tools, let's get back to the mayhem...!

***************
"Ode To Joy"
https://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3397

Y'know that stupid game you play with fortune cookies in which you 
read the fortune out loud and add the phrase "in bed" at the end...? 
Well, that's apparently the favorite little fun game with the 
brain-rotted US media with regard to China, especially at the Olympics  this past week — find any news of any positive achievement of or any news that reflects well on China, and the US Boss Media will be right  on top of it with their shallow bitching and moaning about "human  rights", trot out their victims of the week, fling some over-hyped apocryphal stories around and wail "but at what cost"?

The front page of the Washington Post — where Democracy died long ago  and is now beginning to smell really pungent in darkness — put on  quite a show this past Saturday, pissing and moaning about the job the  Chinese did of keeping covid under control during the Olympics,  claiming that it "kept the joy out of the Games" and at "great mental  and financial costs". It was a headline so galling that I had to just  kind of stand there in the front hall, slack-jawed, sputtering and  giggling as I read and re-read it.

I was almost in awe of it, somehow — a gaggle of hacks from a 
corporate mouthpiece in the seat of the US Empire, which had twice as  many covid-19 deaths last week than China had all of last year, is 
having a tantrum about China taking the steps any responsible 
government should do during a public health emergency, filling its 
pants about how it took the joy out of the Olympics. Myself, I think 
any "joy" issues our friends here had came more from the shock of 
being shown up by a Chinese-American who chose to ski for China, and  by a government which treats healthcare as a public good rather than a  commodity.

Yeah, shame those horrid, awful Chinese commies took appropriate 
action to mitigate the spread of an infectious pathogen and took a 
little bit of the "joy" out of it for you — not nearly as awesome as 
here in the good old USA, where we're joyful and free and lost nearly 
a million people to covid19 last year.
