Andrew Cuomo's Pandemic Poster refers to a poster shared by New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo meant to tout the state's handling of the coronavirus Pandemic. The poster depicts a mountain, meant to represent the state's curve of cases. It resembles a political cartoon, with many elements labeled to represent various stages of New York's response to the pandemic. It was widely mocked online, particularly for the art style and confusing elements, such as a section labeled "Boyfriend Cliff."

Others expressed bewilderment at elements of the poster, including the "Boyfriend Cliff," a reference which many didn't understand. "Boyfriend Cliff"[5] trended on Twitter that day. User @SamanthaHearn[6] joked, "The boyfriend cliff is the chapter of coronavirus where you have to break up due to social distancing making new relationships completely impractical, thus marking the final tipping point towards complete dystopian dissent. I know this from personal, professional experience," gaining over 90 retweets and 470 likes (shown below, left). @_cingraham[7] joked about imagining Cuomo demanding his designer include "boyfriend cliff" (shown below, right). It is speculated the "boyfriend cliff" is a reference to a photo Cuomo shared during the pandemic showing him eating dinner with his daughters and one of the daughters' boyfriends.[8]

I am AHO Right?

This is completely batshit…
But I approve of returning to the golden age of overly complicated political cartoons with way too many concepts crammed into one tableau that combines highbrow art (the Ancient Greek personified winds blowing, the random sea creature, the "liberte, egalite, fraternite"-esque slogan, the unfurling banners, etc) with lowbrow… whatever the fuck the rest of it is. A political cartoon shouldn't just be one or two things with easily readable nametags, it should be a great hodgepodge of inscrutable ideas and references to people, places and events you barely know of.
Also "111 Days of Hell" sounds like a fantastic absurdist novel, perfect for post-apocalyptic empty beach-reading.
