Sorry for using comics and art to vent and cope with the world changing around me. I will return to drawing whimsical and silly frog wizards and adventures.

“For 4 years, Ukraine has been fighting for the whole of Europe. NATO was created to fight one war … to save free Europe from Russian aggression. Ukraine is the only country that is fighting this war, and we are still discussing should we include them or not.”

Devastating. Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder. "It is a tragic irony that murals meant to represent the contract between the government and its citizens would be sold to the highest bidder rather than preserved for posterity." www.alternet.org/trump-destro...
Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder
Painted figures haunt an empty building. A boy leaning on a pair of crutches. A father and son wandering a barren railroad track. A nuclear family at a picnic table. These poignant scenes were painted...

Nothing about MAGA is serious or real. The entire movement is a sham for control. Don't be afraid of these bozos.

Sin City Rainbow. We saw a nice rainbow this morning, while driving to work along…well…Rainbow Boulevard.

Fun fact: You can also thank Lake Sherwood for Woody Woodpecker.

In 1940 animator Walter Lantz & his wife Gracie were staying at a cabin along the lake's shore. An "annoying" woodpecker was pecking on their wood roof at night. Taking his wife's advice, Woody Woodpecker was born.

Greyhound bus terminal, LA, 1969.

Who remembers coin-operated TVs? For that matter, indoor ashcans, newspapers, and nattily dressed commuters? 😎

The painted icons on the LA River bike route by the Glendale-Hyperion viaduct now sport energy domes.

A nice reminder that we're all DEVO.

Early streetlights, dangling over Long Beach Ave. at 42nd Street, looking north toward City Hall in 1928.

I can't help but think this should be an album cover by an indie rock band...
