    The comparison of circus to cathedral works not just because it’s such an oxymoron to picture, but we know exactly what you mean without needing any more detail. Succinct as always!

  • Not my circus, not my monkeys, lol 😅

    The Ass-Clowns rule the day. Hopefully, a tangential ray of hope.

    Poor Kamala, what has she gotten herself into. The circus church will eat her alive. Back to the cave we go. This says it all. Divine intervention sorely needed.

    ugh I don't go to that church and Hulk was bounced on his head too many times. Great Senryu!
