Tonight at family dinner my 3 year old asked,
"Dad, how can we help ICE? What can we do to make sure all non-Americans are sent back to their real homes? We just want our country back."
It was powerful. The simple mind of a child can be profound. The deportations are for them.

It's OK to admit you don't listen to new music. Saying "Who?" every time someone posts a story about an artist 20-years your junior makes you seem like a Medicare recipient. We get it. You only listen to guitar rock that came out when your parents were 16. You are clearly the better person.
