Very amusing column. Meanwhile, in real life in my quite progressive neighborhood, I've been getting a flurry of emails on our neighborhood mailing list from people who have recently spotted ICE agents in the vicinity. ICE has been seen stopping suspected illegal immigrants (or undocumented persons, depending on your point of view) and detaining some of them, and a mysterious helicopter has been hovering overhead. This happened on Halloween as well. My neighbors are upset, and are discussing ways to help possible targets of ICE, like landscapers, avoid detection. These include giving them rides to safe spaces and blowing whistles to alert people about ICE's presence.
The fact that this was happening on Halloween made me wonder whether some people might have foolishly dressed up as ICE agents, and then got in trouble either with ICE for impersonating their actual agents or with the anti-ICE people for participating in ICE's crackdowns. I also had an idea for a new entry in the "Halloween" film series featuring Michael Myers dressed up as a masked ICE agent, and a frantic Dr. Loomis hunting for him and warning everyone to stay clear of Myers and not let him in if he knocks on their door.
Sasha, great job. Janet, the ultimate Karen, is a fun character. I love the situations you stick her in. And her self justifications. It’s laugh out loud funny.
This is so darn good. Can we all just stop……I long for the good old days when we just judged people on their character and not what they believed politically
Excellent! You captured the Next Door ‘No Kings” Karens perfectly.
You’re a great writer. Thank you. Looking for the tip jar

Is there a tip jar? I can’t find one either.

Great story. Sad reality we are living in
Wow! You deserve a treat for writing that!
They be crazy. The Democrat grass roots are worse than the politicians. There is no nonviolent option other than separation.
Many democrats have the same feeling on GOP
it's not the gop who is showing the violence
Probly, but define 'separation'....
Different countries. Canada be crazy but not a threat.
I couldn’t put it down because it was so captivating
My neighborhood is full of Janet-types
Lucky me 😵💫
Well done, Sasha. It would be appalling to think that people like Janet actually exist. And if they were voters.
Wait - what???
Omg that was so good, can't wait for the next installment. I do hope this ends as a story of redemption and not a story of tragedy!

Poor Janet... So close but yet so far.
👏👏👏
I'm looking forward to the movie.
This may be satire, but how many of us know a real life Janet?
