I like the new drawing tool. The Republicans are a hot mess. If it didn't have such dire consequences I'd sit back and enjoy.

I watched the video 6 times but don't understand the program you are using to see what different tool you switched to. I will say that I feel I would recognize the guy if I saw him getting off the train. Nice work

And, have no fear, Jordon went down for the third time. They're all going down and I sense they know it. Yippie

Thank you, Sidney. So good about Jordan, right? Let's see what happens this week.

That's 'I can't draw anything'

Seems the R's like to waste people's time and get folks all fired up....like with all those dramatic shut-down cliff-hangers. Blech. The good news is I read my meditation/devotional books out loud this morning to my rescue dog and my two cats, and they were all ears. They all sat quietly and let Mommy expound. So it was a peaceful morning, and I did not turn on the radio until everyone was calm. And then I heard the happy news that JJ would not be Speaker of the House. Yay. I'm amazed (and grateful) you can draw unencumbered on the trains. Good on you, and good for us. Awesome as always.

That's sweet, Allia. You are a good pet parent. And yes, it's a little unsettling how happy I was that JJ went down the way he did. I never liked him.

Screaming from Ohio, DO NOT TAKE YOUR EYES OFF JORDAN.... he may have lost three votes, but that means nothing to him or the GOP... keep watching him. He plays by wrestling rules; there is no such thing as a disadvantage or a loss, just a retreat and a different defense position. Keep your eyes on him, please. He’s playing by the date squeeze rules that worked for our unconstitutional electoral maps that we were forced to vote using and now they’ve put their gerrymandered maps in place because they got their OH Supreme Court justices they wanted. But they delayed and delayed and kept submitting illegal maps until they banged up against election dates. That’s what Jordan is doing. I swear, do not take your eyes off him!!!

I totally agree. He needs to be watched.

I was wrong. Jordan was merely a diversion to shield the real candidate while he shored up the votes. It’s was always gonna be some trickery. 😔 How far this country has fallen...

They're all going down. Orange is their favorite color.

I took so many drawing classes in college and I can draw anything. I watch you draw over and over again and I just don't get it. your first stroke might be a knee cap or a foot or a lower arm. How do you do that???? I realize we all have our gifts. There are athletes that have a hand to eye coordination gift. I have a composition gift. I can 'see' it, but I just can't figure out the drawing piece. You've got it in spades. Enjoy it.

I’ve loved cartoons since I was a kid. Still have personal letter Robert Weber wrote me when I was in college and asked him about his media. You’re work is unique and really clever. (And the political opinions are fitting the extraordinary times.). Glad I signed up.
