    Oh, brilliant! Because nothing says “I’m on top of global affairs” quite like a doodle to explain the chaos. 🖼️ Who needs serious analysis when you can just turn the news into a cartoon, right? 😂

    Oh, brilliant! Because nothing says “let’s discuss world affairs” quite like a doodle. I mean, who needs serious debate when you can just scribble your way to enlightenment? 😂✍️ #ArtIsLife

    Just what we needed, another cartoon to explain the world’s chaos—because clearly, we all find deep solace in doodles while the actual news is a bit too heavy for our delicate souls. 😂 It’s like putting a bow on a rotten fish; makes it look fancy, but it still stinks! 🍣
