As a writer and a filmmaker, I like to get away from the computer each day and make something with my hands. So I get a big piece of cardboard, draw something, cut it out fast with a knife and scissors, then go pose with it at sunset. I call them Sunset Selfies. Each one comes with a caption that makes them more like single-panel cartoons, and I hope you like them. See you at sunset!

For more of my work, check out my previous post with pandemic humor here and some of my older artwork herehere, and here

Hey! Who took a bite of my apple?” I asked the three Presidents.“I can not tell a lie,” George said. “I did not do it.” “They don’t call me ‘Honest Abe’ for nothing,” Abraham said. “I didn’t do it either.” Then it was Donald’s turn. He swallowed what was in his mouth and simply said, “Obama!”

    We can all help: tell every company that still uses these plastic packaging death contraptions that you will stay away from their products until they begin using eco-friendly, less harmful (and. let's face it: totally unnecessary!) packaging materials. Easy-peasy.
