People's attention is drifting away, partly because ICE told everyone they were leaving (FYI: they're still here) and partly just because ... people get tired of stories and want to move on.

A 4-panel comic labeled Today's Accomplishments. In panel 1, there is a small smiley blocky creature and the caption "comb hair". Panel 2, the same creature and the caption "get dressed." Panel 3, they are angry, surrounded by flames, and the caption says "be violently enraged by world news." Panel 4 they are smiling again and the caption says "smell a flower"
