WHO IS ASKING FOR THIS

My kids watched Cars & How to Train Your Dragon. Foster's Home, EE&E & iCarly. Her children were not even born when these ended. Sometimes we talk & I'm reminded that my oldest can drink, my middle is married, & her youngest isn't even in junior high.
It's weird, y'all. She's one year younger.

Our youngest sibling? Barney! She's my favorite & she's never seen a Muppet movie. But you know what's weirder? Having kids a decade before your same-age sibling.

There's a funny thing about siblings who are really far apart, where you definitely have a shared history, but also your pop culture is VERY different.
My sister & I are Muppets, Care Bears, Rainbow Brite, Transformers.
Our next sibling is 9 years younger-Power Rangers & TMNT.

Carrot cake is technically a muffin, if we're drilling down on technique, and muffins are breakfast.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

A lot of women need to de-center men from their lives. I will say it again, de-center them. You keep losing yourself trying to build with men who bring nothing but confusion and chaos. A man with nothing will drain everything you have built.

This version is confirmed, by Hoffman Estates police, puncturing the official DHS statement.

At this point, there is a statement from DHS re 🧊 activities in the Chicago area that’s refuted in similar fashion on nearly a daily basis at a minimum over the past week

Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi @congressmanraja.bsky.social · 1d

Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.
