- Yes I'll amplify the words of Bill Kristol if they advocate for ABOLISHING ICE. It's said "politics makes strange bedfellows." I'm interested in a better metaphor. Rats on sinking ships and ports in storms bum me out even more than bedfellows.
- Reposted by Joe CrawfordDemocrats should defund and restrain ICE to the degree possible. And they should insist on this condition at least: No ICE (or Border Patrol) anywhere near the polls or early voting election locations this fall.

- Reposted by Joe CrawfordI've always wanted to make a 2-color comic wherein a third color (and range of tints) are created by overlapping the colors - vintage children's books would often use this technique. you would also see this in the flexographic printing of packaging. I'm pretty happy with this experiment.

- The Internet I was promised in 1998 was disintermediated. In 2016? So many middlewares! each extracts 30% or so. Work to tell those middles to chill the eff out is politics.
