Creative human who’s been writing and drawing stuff for nearly seven decades now. I live right about in the middle of that picture across the top of this page. I wanted to be somewhere besides a city for a while before I figure out what I’m doing next.

Not surprisingly, Trump’s overall tax and tariff proposals would make the very rich much richer and working families poorer. If you earn less than $360,000 a year, your taxes are going to go way up. If you’re in the top 1%? Don’t worry. You’ll save big.
