Winter 2021

 

The first two panels of a six panel comic by KC Green (2013). Learn more at the links below.


You can see the entire comic HERE (though you may wish you hadn't). This well circulated image seems to nicely capture a lot of what has been going on. There is a great article here about the artist, who also has created some other well known memes.  

Like a Rorschach Inkblot, the viewer can take different meanings from the comic. Perhaps it is a statement about living in denial? Maybe it is encouraging positivity under impossibly trying circumstances? Could it be about how perception shapes reality? Whatever the meaning, it continues to resonate. 

With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Winter 21 term will continue online. I am especially thankful I work in a field that lends itself well to remote learning. The good news is I have more experience teaching and learning in a virtual setting than in mid-March of 2020. 

At least, I think so; though I may be living in denial.
