My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com

A figure stands in a barren landscape; reaches for the lever on a large, eccentric contraption covered in wires, pipes, dials and buttons; looks over towards two figures inside a bunker and says:

"'Trust me, it's safe' would sound a lot more reassuring if you weren't saying it from inside a concrete bunker."

oil is down but it isn’t lowering gas or diesel. shortage fears keep prices high but there’s no shortage of oil…. ‘it’s the refineries’ they screech while still making record profits. it’s all a scam to rip you off and enrich the billionaires.

this world isn't home. never has been. the last decade has made that even more clear. this is a foreign land where i don't speak the language or embrace the culture or feel at peace. this world is alien. and i feel like an alien in it. i want to go to my real home more every day.

“This little cheap god we’ve made up is one you can pal around with … the fellow who helps you win baseball games. That god isn’t the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He isn’t the God who laid the foundation of the heaven and the earth; he’s some other god.” – A.W. Tozer
