Last week Senator Ted Cruz (TX), who recently took over the chair of the Space, Science and Competitiveness subcommittee, opined to NASA Administrator Charles Bolden that NASA has become distracted from its “core mission” by studying climate change. Here is Cruz’s own press release on the subject, which includes the chart on increased spending for … Read More “Cruz to Mars” »
The New York Times recently reported on a new push by gun rights advocates to allow firearms on college campuses. The most recent legislative move is in Nevada, where legislator Michele Fiore, as quoted in the NYT article, said the very thing quoted in the second panel drawn above. I was pretty stunned, then admittedly … Read More “Guns On Campus” »
As police continue their investigation of the murder of three Muslim students in Chapel Hill, NC, neighbor testimony supports the finding that one of the bugbears working on Craig Hicks’ mind was a fixation with parking space etiquette. So to be clear, I don’t dismiss his aggressive policing of parking spaces as a contributing … Read More “Parking Space Atheists” »
This may sound crazy, but I don’t think the 2 lbs under regulation PSI for footballs is a big deal — either within the warped universe of professional football or extending outward into our ever expanding gravitationally warped universe as a whole. Rape is a big deal. Domestic violence is a big deal. Bullying is … Read More “inflated scandal” »
Following President Obama’s state of the union address on Tuesday — or really, even as it was going on, via social media — conservatives and libertarians hauled out all of their tired old arguments about big government, “why does every social problem require a federal government solution”, and other clichés. In response, liberals and progressives … Read More “Earth2 Eisenhower” »
I haven’t seen Clint Eastwood’s “American Sniper”, so I cannot rate it as a work of art. I’m more interested in the conversation … no, that’s not the word. Social media doesn’t seem to support conversation or debate. More like sniping. Ironically, I guess. Anyway, I was reading about the chilling, disturbing things Christopher Kyle … Read More “American Sniping” »
A New York Times article today echoes many NYT articles of Martin Luther King’s lifetime in dismissing the activist efforts of young people — black young people in particular — as unfocused, lacking leadership, what’s the point, etc etc. Just roll your eyes and keep pushing, people.
This week Pope Francis condemned the AQAP attack on Charlie Hebdo, but then asserted a religious exception to free speech rights. Polly Toynbee likened his logic to the “she had it coming” wife-beater’s defense. Meanwhile, due to the huge public crowds expected for the Pope’s visit to the Philippines, police officers in Manila have been … Read More “Sketchbook: Pope Mockery” »
A digital drawing I made on my iPad with Paper by 53. I think it’s a shame he will never see the inside of a jail, unless it’s to pick out his next prey on the controlled hunting range.
Despite lack of updating on this site, I have been productive, cartooning-wise. Recently I contributed a fill-in comic strip to Jake Richmond’s funny and adorable adventure webcomic Modest Medusa. I also recently designed a logo for Tom Peter’s video game repair business, The Amusement Doctor. A logo for the Winter Beerfest in St. John’s, Oregon. … Read More “Recent Work Since September” »
