Solutions, not screaming. Progress, not polarization.
Communities, not conflict.

James Talarico announced he is running for the U.S. Senate seat in Texas. I just sent him a donation. I encourage others to do so.

I also bought this fun shirt.

Check out his viral videos out there. He is an oasis of clarity and wisdom in our current political hurricane.

I had this lightning-strike idea for a political cartoon.

I coulda photoshopped something together or prompted A.I. to churn out slop.

But I didn't.

No. I commissioned a former co-worker, a very talented illustrator, to create the graphic.

And paid him for it.

Support organic creativity.
