13Nov 17, '16Normalizing this atrocity is VERY bad. It is not a "precedent" to be cited for future policy. It is a stain on US history. Watch the clip.4.8×01.1k8570

59Dec 27, '16So so sad to hear about Carrie Fisher.1.6×0795850
60Dec 1, '16Though it is super frustrating, discovering the wrong way(s) to do something is still more progress than not trying at all.1.6×05052020

72Feb 25, '16Why do I wear black? It hides coffee and oil stains (two fluids essential to building robots). Also good for blood, sweat & tears.1.3×05101200
