Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning.

This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

It’s a big deal to see my church as plaintiffs in a federal lawsuit. Proud of them for showing solidarity and advocacy for those who are vulnerable in our communities. Exactly how we should be leveraging institutional power 🩷✊🏻

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

Any “Christian” who has read the Bible should be aware of this verse or ones similar…interesting how “Christians” don’t know their Bibles…perhaps no “Christians” in this administration?

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

I pulled the plug on X this week, and disabled my account after 14 years on the app. Hoping to find bluer skies here! 🩵

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Almost two full years in my cozy little abode. And I just re-signed my lease for a third year, which will make this the longest I’ve lived in one residence since high school 🩷 it feels good to come home and feel settled

Here to report in my first Bluesky post that my raging procrastination problem has not gotten better in the 7 years between undergrad and grad school

Me too, but I'm wondering if it's because I blocked them? I'm not sure because I can't click on it.

John, as a long time nerd fighter and listener of DH&J, you and Hank have always made me feel validated in being an enthusiastic fan on things, especially my love for Taylor Swift. I’m happy to follow you on a new platform!
