An American in Ba-Wü

I am: an American in Germany, an educator, a mom to two kids, interested in languages and photography... and right now I'm figuring out how to set aside time and energy for my own life and brain.
I'm neither an economist nor a historian, but I did watch Ferris Bueller a few times, and for some reason this scene keeps going through my head: m.youtube.com/watch?v=yuOH...

Never mind cell phones and floppy drives... this is what blows the 9-year-old's mind: "Mommy, you mean they didn't have emojis when you were a kid?!"

DOJ submits an evasive declaration a little after the deadline. Just a few hours later, Boasberg sua sponte enters an order saying it's not sufficient, ordering a March 21 filing about states secrets, and requiring them to show cause why they didn't violate the TRO by March 25.

I'm still figuring out what to do here -- how much personal information to share, what information/observations I might have which would valuable for others. So I'll probably be mostly silent for now, and maybe I'll comment on posts when I think I have a cogent/relevant contribution.
