Lego-loving desk jockey, husband, and father of two tough young women in Tucson. Still waiting for my mutant super-powers to kick in.

Let's stop saying 45 is insane. He's cruel, hateful, and lacks any sense of compassion. Lots of "insane" people are kind and loving.

@ManMadeMoon Not a lot of women on these lists...

I just can't take it anymore. This is a forum for heartbreak and despair, and, as much as I love my Follows, I can't in good health return here. Maybe later when I'm stronger.

Without audio of today’s announcement, there is no way to replicate Sotomayor’s fury in a 20-minute dissent from the bench re: today’s travel ban decision

As a Jesuit priest, I am proud to stand with my #Muslim brothers and sisters. As a Catholic, I am proud to live in a country is not supposed to judge a person by his or her religious beliefs. And as an American, I am proud of Justice Sotomayor's historic dissent. #NoMuslimBan

The one belief that's getting me through these crazy days: there are more of us then there are of them.

Can’t sleep tonight. I know I shouldn’t tweet. But I’m angry. And sad. I hate what we’ve become. My wife wants to go & hold babies & read to lonely/scared/sad kids. I want to punch someone. Political tribalism is stupid. It sucks & it’s dangerous. We are all part of the problem.

Let's do this. 10,000 RTs in 24 hours, and we'll release Watermelon TOMORROW. You have until 9AM.

Make no mistake: Today’s executive order fails to address or end this moral crisis. It merely replaces the unacceptable evil of family separation with the unacceptable evil of child detention. https://t.co/eNPDcNhokM

I have literally had hundreds of people ask me how they can help fight Trump's Family Separation policy.

This article by @Dahlialithwick is by far the best answer I can find.

なんか作業に詰まってしまったので、気分転換に前から考えてたハッチング漫画風のシェーダーを作ってみたら想像以上に上手くいってテンション上がって「うひょー！」ってなった。

Here it is. The ransom note. Give him the Wall and the kids go free. Never in our lifetimes has there been more despicable leadership of our country. This is truly vile. https://t.co/Q66okrVTDI

@SenJohnMcCain More action, less talk Senator.

[Laura Bush @laurawbush]

I live in a border state. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart.

[Eric Holder @EricHolder]

Who are we supposed to believe, you or our lying eyes. Laura Bush says it best “I live in a border state. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart.”

#OTD in 1885, the Statue of Liberty arrived at the New York Harbor. Designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, this massive copper statue became a symbol of freedom and opportunity to immigrants arriving from overseas. #oldestallies #fromthearchives

This biblical passage was used by the Dutch Refomed Church in Apartheid South Africa. It was also used by some Christian denominations in Nazi Germany to justify accommodation with the Third Reich. https://t.co/gqFw90mneB
