Sometimes a little bit of green next to a parking lot is enough to uplift your day if you stop for a moment to notice. Sometimes taking a little green with you, even artificial, helps, too. Future home of my dashboard graveyard in the SpookyRiot art car.

In a world of cyber trucks be the art car.

How dare someone park a cyber truck so close to The SpookyRiot?

My 4th of July message for you all.

4th of July 250
I was 8 when the Bicentennial. Happened. As a kid I was dazzled by the sparkly Stars and Stripes, so many images of Abe and George and America the Beautiful playing non stop.

I don’t remember the celebration of the actual day very much. The whole year was really a celebration. Even in November on my 9th birthday there’s a picture of me wearing my Liberty Bell 1776 T-shirt (with my arm around the 1975 Playboy Playmate of the year, Marilyn Langue… but that’s a different story). There were so many fireworks that year none of them stand out.

Now, 50 years later, the 250th feels more like an obligation we’ve been dreading for 6 months, like knowing you are going to have to celebrate the birthday of your aged great aunt who always found mean ways to embarrass you even before she had dementia and thinks you are the black sheep daughter she never really loved.

But I still have hope, and feel like it is important to hold onto that hope.

I still stand for the National Anthem. I still say The Pledge of Allegiance (though I leave out the stupid parts added by Asshole Congress in the 1950s). I do so because I believe in the idea that American CAN be better than the rocky and cruel foundation we were born on.

I believe for too long we have allowed certain folks with out the best interests of the country at heart to use our symbols, our hopes, our belief in democracy to bend the future away from justice and into graft to like their own pockets. I think we need to stand up and take back these symbols and make them mean what we WANT them to mean again.

So, this morning, among the many flags I attached to my car showing my pride and support, I also attached an American flag, and this week I’ll be painting some American flags as a way to bring that symbol back into the fold.

I wish you all a Happy 4th filled with hope in a future that again bends toward justice for all.

Sometimes I’m driving and I see something that I want to look up later, so I grab a nearby pen and note on my driving hand. Then I get home and I’m faced with this:

Oh, damn. That would be awesome! Same damn energy. I was just going off of face shape. Put a black mop and thick neck prosthetic on Tudyk and you’re good to go! I’m sure Tudyk can take a punch better than Danzig, tho.

This is how to handle a scammer. The more time you take up with bullshit, the less time they have to meet their quota with other victims. Waste their time. There’s a lot of text here, but it gets good about a minute in.

The best film adaptation of The Odyssey is still The Warriors (1979) directed by Walter Hill. My only critical note is that it drops the story at home with Penelope and Telemachus (and id really like to see a version of just them without Odysseus at all).

So labelling “all Nazis are evil” is wrong? Is that what you’re saying? Really? Read the following and tell me how anyone with a billion dollars who is NOT actively trying to spend it down to do good has any morality left in them.

Text that reads:”Let's say you get a net payment of $1B and you just put it into a regular savings account.
Not even a good one, as it only earns 1.0% APY (it's pretty easy to find regular savings accounts that are 3 times that or more).
That's going to earn $10 Million dollars a year.
If you just spend that interest, and don't touch any of the principal, you would have to spend more than $27,000 a day to not increase that principal.
How would you live if you had $27,000 a day to spend without depleting any of your principal.
How many kids and grandkids and great grandkids would it take before $27,000 a day was not enough for all of you to live extremely well?
How much is it ethically and morally sound for you to keep as personal wealth, and shouldn't there be a cap at which point the remainder goes to the public good?Fhat’s why taxing the rich is so important.

Sometimes you wake from a dream at 3am and hover to sketch out that dream immediately on canvas.

Not a fan of having to wear a tie, but sometimes you’ve just gotta. Still, working toward a life where I have to do it less and less.

JTony, clearly not all that pleased about having to wear suit and tie, even for an interview.

I wear this ring, but I still get why many people (not just Millenials, Gen X and Boomers, too) can’t get past the Fraser version. It’s pretty fantastic.
