Did this one back around 17 December.

2020's was pretty pretty much a throw away year; many kids are gonna have to do the school year over, far too many folks have lost their livelihood, holidays canceled, folks told to give up living to keep from dying so...
Much of the art I'm doing now is throw away as well, quick and dirty on what ever's available. Such as this there's a party tonight on a PBR box.
