Just thought I'd share a few skippyhaha studihoho paintings ("hohos") I've made this year.

When I was thinking of t-shirt ideas and graphics professionally for a few years with Vintage Vantage, I would be happy if the idea made people laugh or made people think.

That is still the goal!

Thank you Socialist Firefighters!

 

As I reflect on the enormous effort mountain firefighters expended in the last 2 days to make sure no people, animals, and houses burned down during the Elephant Butte Wildfire in Evergreen, I am thankful and proud and happy. 

 






I watched neighbors on the news who went down to the lake to "cheer the firefighters on and say go team!" There was zero political polarization in local online groups - people were opening their houses and stables to displaced families and animals and sharing information kindly. 

Nobody said "how are we going to pay for this? Who is paying for this?" We were all scared and put our trust in our government to take care of the danger, and they did. It was glorious.

Imagine feeling this way about our education system and our healthcare system. Imagine feeling that our taxes were going to make sure every kid hit their potential, that every neighbor was able to see a doctor when they're sick.

It could be beautiful.
