Thanks, I learned something. I'm rotten about geometry so the tricks here are going to help me out.
Of course you should hangout with Photojojo. We're in SF (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
I bicycle commute, but I co-own a Volkswagen Passat Wagon for weekends out of the city.
Wagons are so great.
Nour is a good guy and you should buy all his things.
A resource I love is Fonts in Use ( http://fontsinuse.com/ ). I love seeing the combinations in context.
At first glance I definitely saw a lady part, but I was really delighted by it. I'm for more vulvic symbols in the world.
Sketch, too. I haven't needed to prototype a ton of interaction, so it's perfect for me.
Another one for cycling. :D

I want to start off by saying that I agree, I believe that civil discourse is increasingly difficult in the United States. You're right, if everyone was sincerely interested in learning from one another we'd all be much better for it.
I think you're asking "why aren't there conservative women in this project?" and my response is "what makes you think there aren't?". Most women in the project didn't identify their party affiliation or state if their worldview is conservative or liberal. There are hundreds of reasons for a conservative woman to be pro-Hillary and many are included in the interviews.
Another possible answer to "why aren't there conservative women in this project" is something that many, many women in the project alluded to: women know if they openly support Hillary they will be harassed or be in physical danger. The secret Hillary club in red states is a real phenomenon. Women in the project say they're afraid to do things like put a Hillary yard sign in their lawn. It's understandable why a woman who is afraid of her aggressively anti-Hillary boyfriend, spouse, or community would not want to participate in a portrait project.
I think you're coming from a good place. You want bi-partisanship. Rad, so do I. But it feels like you're looking for a way to invalidate a project that is a platform for queer, trans, senior, and ethnically diverse women to share what's on the line for them this election. Women who are not often featured on talk shows or in the press. Who have valid, real, fears about this election. And it's a bummer you're ignoring them.
