While I appreciate the job's not done, I've been in the feels about this play lately and so I've drawn a tribute to the Apes and the chaos of our story. Regardless of how this tale finally ends, Apes saw a situation that was inherently unfair, a system that was wildly corrupt,

@olgatokariuk My son (6) asked me last night if Ukrainians were sad. I told them, yes, they are sad about what is happening, but they're also incredibly proud. Proud to be the vanguard of liberty, proud to be the modern David, proud to be a beacon we all look up to now. Glory to Ukraine!

@JLGjTpM Well there goes my plan for a nice, calm and uneventful weekend sitting in the basement building some models, inadvertently sniffing some glue (it's a small space) and trying to figure out what last weeks' batch of memes were. Guess I'll just take out my cracker jax alphabet

@trvsrdrgz2 It’s been fun watching Fox try and figure out which hand that feeds them to bite. Trump or Kenny. Trump or Kenny. Decisions decisions .

@mark_joubert You will meet again. So sorry for what you went through, but I’m so glad he was blessed with such loving parents who went through everything possible for him. I hope every time the sun hits just so, you’ll feel him smiling down upon you. God bless you.
