Hey folks!

For the past few years Jim and Dave opened their home and hearts to two foster kids and were in the process of adopting them. Now they’re in a legal fight to try and keep their daughters.

The costs are mounting, and if you can help and want to…

This week's postcards are thank-yous going to the six Members of Congress who released the "Don't Give Up the Ship" video.

They have earned their courtesy title of "Honorable."

Complaint #1: businesses should not have a fb page instead of a website

Complaint #2: when I go to a business’s fb to try to figure out if they are even open I should not be inundated with the worst AI slop imaginable.

The rare week when you may not actually need a timeline cleanse… but here ya go anyway.

These are “salmon in the Bardo,” a wonderful phrase coined by the brilliant naturalist Rob Rich — already gripped by death, yet compelled onward by the relentless spawning imperative.

An absurd media narrative in runup to the election said Dems must choose between being "anti-Trump" and running on substance.

The lesson from this election is that anti-Trump politics *is* affordability politics, and affordability politics *is* anti-Trump politics:

I just organized some resources for whistles if anyone wants to DIY an event or join forces with my whistle event team.

We could use support with 3D printing whistles! I’ve got files, donation links, and a sign-up sheet. Also a link to the zines if you need it!

We host weekly whistle events at places like Nighthawk in Albany Park, Beermiscuous in Lakeview, and more coming soon. Please help us print whistles & zines!

Good point.
A big thing I'm starting to think about is: What will ICE do in the winter in Chicago, when it's cold and fewer people are out on the streets for them to kidnap? How much harder might they try to enter businesses, schools, libraries, and homes? We need to be planning for them to shift gears.

Ibid with men. Critique their beliefs and actions, perhaps also their personalities, not their appearance.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Sitting here listening to Ken Burns's film "Prohibition" while I sew, and it's almost painful to realize how familiar so many of the attitudes and tactics are.

History is most definitely rhyming.
