At a bakery today and my oldest ordered a black and white cookie. We paid, and moments later Michael Jackson's Black or White came on the radio. Truly a magical experience.

Just finished: selvedge denim Type III jacket with vintage fabric found at a charity rummage.

Extra buttonhole for glasses, copper donut hole buttons, lined with a cotton stripe.

The small welt pocket in the lining just happened to be perfect for gum packets.

My first pair of jeans. Raw Japanese selvedge denim from Fishman Fabrics in Chicago.

I drafted a pleated trouser pant with a fishtail back, rear double welt pockets, and side seam pockets.

Copper donut hole suspender buttons and button fly.

Definitely some finish issues, but I'm happy with them.

Found some selvedge denim at a fabric rummage recently. It still had the price tag on it from Minnesota Fabrics for $0.59 a yard.

Minnesota Fabrics went out of business in 1989, so this fabric is at least that old.

With just barely two yards, I plan on making a Type III llLevi style jacket.
The selvedge and original price tag with view of wrong side of fabric. The fabric chalked and in the process of cutting the pattern.

For sale: baby crocs, never worn.
Baby sized crocs in a Burlington made me think of the saddest shortest story ever written.

Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped.

The decisions amount to a huge legal rebuke, but the administration has continued jailing people indefinitely.

Immigration lawyers said Kilmar Abrego Garcia's landmark case highlights the pitfalls with the speed and scale of the Trump administration's goal of mass deportations.
His mistaken deportation was thought to be unique. But 'the problem is getting worse'

Made myself a Monte Cristo sandwich with a croissant for the bread. I'm calling it a "Monte Crissanto" (or something like that).

Topped with sour cherry jam and maple syrup.

Move over Sunday brunch, I'm coming for you.

Outrage over these trends should cause moderates to be immoderate. It should generate what Niebuhr called, in another work, “a sublime madness in the soul”

A reminder that before he was blowing up boats under supposed war authority based on bogus accusations of terrorism, the President sent hundreds of men to CECOT under supposed war authority based on bogus accusations of terrorism.

Got my wife a concrete porch goose for her birthday and I sewed a smart little dress out of scrap fabric. Admittedly, I wasn't sure whether to do arm holes or just treat it like a poncho. In the end, I went with poncho but I tried to give the "shoulders" some structure.

A trio of cotton sateen button up shirts I made. Pattern is self drafted (you can tell in spots).

I'm really pleased with the contrasting topstitching on the green shirt.

The brown shirt is a western style with piping and pocket flaps.

🚨NEW: The Trump admin moves to terminate Temporary Protected Status for HALF A MILLION Haitians, claiming despite all reality that Haiti is a safe country to return to — even though large portions of the country are ruled by vicious gangs and civil governance has collapsed.
DHS Terminates Haiti TPS, Encourages Haitians to Obtain Lawful Status Release Date: June 27, 2025 WASHINGTON – Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem today announced the termination of Temporary Protected Status for Haiti. The TPS designation for the country expires on Aug. 3, 2025, and the termination will be effective on Tuesday, September 2, 2025. At least 60 days before a TPS designation expires, the Secretary, after consultation with appropriate U.S. government agencies, is required to review the conditions in a country designated for TPS to determine whether the conditions supporting the designation continue to be met, and if so, how long to extend the designation. “This decision restores integrity in our immigration system and ensures that Temporary Protective Status is actually temporary,” said a DHS spokesperson. “The environmental situation in Haiti has improved enough that it is safe for Haitian citizens to return home. We encourage these individuals to take advantage of the Department’s resources in returning to Haiti, which can be arranged through the CBP Home app. Haitian nationals may pursue lawful status through other immigration benefit requests, if eligible.” After conferring with interagency partners, Secretary Noem determined that conditions in Haiti no longer meet the TPS statutory requirements. The Secretary’s decision was based on a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services review of the conditions in Haiti and in consultation with the Department of State. The Secretary determined that, overall, country conditions have improved to the point where Haitians can return home in safety. She further determined that permitting Haitian nationals to remain temporarily in the United States is contrary to the national interest of the United States. Haitian nationals returning home are encouraged to use the U.S. Customs and Border Protection CBP Home app to report their departure from the United States.
