Whelp, by uploading the new Simpsons episode to the main feed, this is actually our 200th! I didn't realize! And while we do have something planned for the milestone, I thought for now I'd make sure you all saw Ian's art, which is the best Moe the bartender as Harvey Milk art you will see today. It is deeply weird to me that this episode devolves into a Milk homage, but at the very least I think Ian did a very good job re-creating the movie with Moe.
Here, BTW, is the actual promo art that Fox made for this episode. Notice anything... not at all gay about it?

That's because it's showing off the episode's B plot, which is all about Skinner falling in love with the new music teacher. This is a really weird decision on Fox's part, because I don't think this is a better way to sell the episode, especially when previous gay episodes got art that very much showed off the gayness.

For the record, I think Ian's art better showcases what this episode is actually about.
