As my wife said: "We can't do much, but we can do this." And I increased my sustaining pledge to NPR. Working and caring for my family take up most of my time (and money!) but if things keep going in this direction, and I have the opportunity to do more, I will. We all have to be ready for that.

Yeah, well I'm sorry to see you don't stand up when the Constitution is being torn down. Put your money where your mouse is, maybe I (and thousands of others) will be back.

SUPERME COURT, Prt 2: The conservative's pro-Trump rulings are like someone trying to keep a zombie at bay by feeding it only one of their fingers at a time. But soon it'll be a hand… and then an arm…
It's a coward's death.

NOT THAT ANYONE ASKED, but it seems clear to me that the Supreme Court's conservative justices are carefully ruling in Trump's favor because they know if they ruled against him he'd ignore it & they'd be instantly irrelevant. They are trying to keep the court viable— in their own, cowardly fashion.

If you liked my HARLEY QUINN, may I humbly suggest you check out my creator-owned character IMPOSSIBLE JONES…

We all have one Great idea. That's where I used up mine.

While I LOVE Harley, one of my big probs was that she was a MURDERER! (I'm Old School like that.) My work-around was to embrace her insanity and show how she saw the world as a cartoon, and that removed her from the reality of what she did. That it tied into her animation roots was a plus.
