Despite what some may think, the election is finally over, and many of us are breathing a huge sigh of relief. To all those who voted — regardless of who you voted for — thank you for taking part in our democracy. The more people who vote, the more our leaders represent the will of the people.

It’s been a rough few weeks. I’ve had some family-related distractions, on top of crippling election-related anxiety. Consequently, our buffer has dwindled to nothing, and we need to take some time to build it back up. So we’re going to take the rest of the year off. We’ll have new pages in January, and a couple new pieces of art in the meantime.

If I don’t talk to you before then, here’s wishing you the very happiest of holidays in the coming weeks! See you in the new year!
