Last evening I said to Jolly that maybe we’d need to take a hiatus from Jolly Monday this week, for I really wasn’t in the mood.  Jolly, however, was having none of it!

“Gwammie … NO!  Our fwiends need us more den ever now, ‘cause it’s scawy and sad and we needs to make ‘em laugh.  Pwease, Gwammie, PWEASE?”

Well, how can I resist the little guy when he puts it that way, when he cares so much about all of you?  And so, between us, we will use all our wiles and charms to try to make you laugh this morning!  Grab a donut or piece of fruit, and settle in for a few minutes with me ‘n Jolly.

Toilet paper anyone?

Toilet paper, or loo paper for my UK readers, is on the minds of just about everybody today.  Imagine one woman’s shock, though, when she ordered a supply of 48 rolls from a company called Who Gives a Crap, only to be billed over $2,000!  Haidee Janetzki of Toowoomba, Australia, had been ordering from the company on a regular basis for several years, but decided to change the brand to a cheaper one.  What she didn’t realize was that instead of 48 rolls, she accidentally ordered 48 boxes … hmmmm, I think I’m beginning to see why there is a shortage!

Says Janetzki …

“And when it asked for quantity, I put 48, thinking that would be a box of 48 rolls. Turned out it was 48 boxes. The courier man turned up at the door with two pallets of toilet paper instead of one box.”

A look at her credit card statement showed that she had been billed $2,153.78 plus shipping!  She said the recent toilet paper shortages stemming from coronavirus concerns have simplified the process of getting rid of the rolls. The family has started selling the toilet paper at a slight mark-up to support a school trip her daughter’s class is planning.  Personally, I would have sent it back, but …

Art made of what???

Take a look at this mural by 23-year-old Oscar Olivares from Venezuela and see if you can guess what it’s made of …

Oscar Olivares, in collaboration with the local environmental organization OkoSpiri and Movimiento en la Arquitectura para el Futuro (eng. Movement in Architecture for the Future), has created a gigantic mural using recycled plastic bottle caps and container lids.It took 2.5 months to plaster over 200,000 various plastic caps on a wall of a small square, Plaza Escalona in El Hatillo Municipality, Caracas. The mural extends a total of 45 meters in length, measuring 3.5 meters at its shortest point and 7.25 meters at its highest point.

“The initiative came from ONG OkoSpiri—they invited me to participate as the artist of the project of creating the first eco-mural of Venezuela using just bottle cap. At first, it sounds impossible, but I did some research and dove deep into pointillism and color. It helped me understand that it was not only possible to make a good mural using caps, but also something hard yet impressive and thus worth it.”

Oscar explains the symbolism behind the mural …

“The mural begins with the city of Caracas (where the mural is) at night with an arepa moon. The arepa is the most typical food of Venezuela and something that connects all of the people of the country—the rich and the poor. In the sky inspired by Van Gogh, you can see two Ovnis (UFOs) that represents our connection with the outer space. Then, we have some sunflowers and in the most important part of the mural, the four macaws in different sizes and perspectives flying around. You can witness these birds flying around Caracas all the time, they are always in a couple or groups. At the end of the mural, you will see an Araguaney—that is the national tree of Venezuela with the name of the mural “Oko-mural” inspired by ONG OkoSpiri.”

The plastic cap mural is reportedly one of the largest ecological murals in South America and the first of its kind in Venezuela. The idea behind the work of art is to raise awareness among the residents of Caracas and beyond about the ecological problems that the country faces.

Pandas … Pandas … Pandas!

Today is National Panda Day!  According to the National Day Calendar people …

National Panda Day draws attention to one of the world’s unique bears. Pandas are also one of the world’s most endangered and adored animals. Conservationists and animal lovers alike spread the word about increasing efforts of the international community dedicated to protecting and restoring habitat.

Native to China, giant pandas are members of the Bear (Ursidae) family. Their rapidly shrinking habitat is a major cause for concern.  As an endangered species, successful panda breeding programs are rare. In the wild, there are approximately only 1,864 (according to the World Wide Fund for Nature) and 100 living in zoos around the world.

With their white face and black eyes and body, Panda bears are easily identifiable. However, despite their sweet disposition, they tend to isolate themselves in the wild. They eat mostly plants and do not hibernate in the winter like many other bears.

So, naturally I have a cute animal video …

I think Jolly is just back from Phil’s Phun where he found some phunny cartoons …

Well, folks, I guess it’s time for us to all get down to the business at hand and get this week off to a grand start!  Share those smiles, and keep a positive attitude this week, okay?  Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa and Jolly!

  Oh … I almost forgot!  Hugh … thought you might need these for the week ahead …

Jolly Monday — Just a Few Laughs Last evening I said to Jolly that maybe we’d need to take a hiatus from Jolly Monday this week, for I really wasn’t in the mood.

2020 Eisner Award Winners Announced

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

The 2020 Eisner Awards were presented by Phil Lamarr as part of Comic-Con At Home, the digital remote replacement for this year’s pandemic-canceled San Diego Comic-Con.

The big winners on the night were women creators, winning outright or a share of almost two thirds of the awards. Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up With Me by Mariko Tamaki and Rosemary Valero-O’Connell took home three awards: Best Publication for Teens, Best Writer, and Best Penciller/Inker. Invisible Kingdom from G. Willow Wilson and Christian Ward; Lynda Barry’s Making Comics; Usagi Yojimbo’s Stan Sakai; and the juggernaut that is Raina Telgelmeier each took home two awards. Other notable wins included David Walker, Chuck Brown and Sanford Greene’s Bitter Root’s Best Continuing Series; Best Limited Series to Darcy Van Poelgeest and Ian Bertrom for Little Bird; Emma Rios for Best Cover Artist for her work on Pretty Deadly; and Chip Zdarsky and Jason Loo’s Afterlift for Best Digital Comic.

Unfortunately, the awards were marred by scandal. Eisner voting was abruptly shut down on June 18th after what Comic Con International called an “anomaly” – later revealed by The Hollywood Reporter to be a pretty disturbing breach of private data and vote integrity. Users who logged into the site could refresh the page and be taken to another voter’s page, complete with personally identifiable information, like full names and addresses. The refreshed page would also show the other voter’s completed ballot, and allow the user to change someone else’s vote. CCI shut down voting on June 18th, and sent an email to Eisner Voters a week later, announcing that they were tossing the initial results and asking voters to recast their ballots. However, several voters reported not receiving the second email, and thus, not being able to cast an updated ballot. 

CCI insists that the final results were the same as the initial round of balloting. However, insisting that the second results are identical to the potentially tainted and untrustworthy first round is not especially confidence inspiring. Wendy Browne, Publisher of the now Eisner-winning comics site Women Write About Comics, summed up the frustration well:

We want this industry to do and be better. But when even the industry’s most prestigious prize is embarrassingly tainted by mismanagement that results in potentially skewed results and privacy breaches left unaddressed — on top of a hellish year that has compounded the injustices, corruption, and inequality all around us — it’s hard for me to see this year’s Eisner win as anything but bittersweet. It makes accepting an award marred by such uncertainty difficult for me, because this does not reflect our principles and who we are. We deserve better, as do all those nominated in this year’s Eisner Awards.

Here is a full list of the winners.
