UPDATE! The Nesting Room is now scheduled for publication March 2027! Nothing to worry about, just a change that works better for us all to align with print deadlines, and it means we've had more time to pour into dev edits and get this book in it's best possible shape. Exciting! #2027debuts

Man, two all-timers in the space of a month. Nice job, New Yorker cartoon editors. The idea of this one is brilliant, but the execution is maybe even more so—getting the figure in the coffin to read both ways like it’s supposed to is something.

A cartoon by Paul Noth from the most recent New Yorker. It shows a coffin. On one side is an anthropomorphic rabbit in windows weeds. On the other a duck in same. In the coffin is a duck, or a rabbit, depending on how you look at the head, which is the simple head from the classic “is it a duck or a rabbit?” drawing.
