Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026All three of my dogs are Cattle Dog mixes. My home is split into fiefdoms, and they all have OPINIONS on how things should work. 110
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Oh, there are definitely safety issues with dog parks, but that’s a different can of worms. I relied on dog parks heavily for when my dogs were puppies. As adults, they bully other dogs, so no rando dogs for them. But there’s a park near me that is often empty, and when it is, we use it. 010
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Oh, I absolutely agree. The existing park needs to close, no question; so give us another park, right? 120
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026I think that is exactly where parks&rec fucked up. They’re taking away something a lot of people use and not offering a replacement. Yes, their land should go back to the indigenous people. No question. But give everyone else a replacement park. 010
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026People are fighting it because an alternative, equivalent park isn’t being offered at the same time. I think park&rec is just failing at doing their sales pitch to the public. 130
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026And beyond that, it’s an especially great dog park. Of course people are going to complain. And the reaction would be the same if the city were closing it for any other reason (ie, expanding a road, building a water treatment plant, whatever). tl;dr: racism bad, but also park&rec is doing it wrong 031
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Yes, they’re only dogs, but many people in the city rely on the dog parks as the only way to really exercise some breeds of dog. Just walking doesn’t cut it. And they made the decision to live here with their dogs because places like that park exist. 4/n 121
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026The park&rec folks are correct about closing that park to dog access because it is sacred land. But they’re also taking away a city service that is heavily used. If they wanted to do this without a fight, they would have added, “…and so we’re going to designate this other land for a new dog park.” 141
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026THAT SAID (hear me out), what the park&rec folks are doing wrong is closing the park without offering an alternative. That dog park is one of the best in the Twin Cities. It’s huge, wooded, and has access to the river. It’s great. I love taking dogs there. 2/n 131
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026The people in the attached photo should be ashamed of themselves for stealing people’s rights slogans and making dog jokes with them. Just traipsing blithely into the racism pit, aren’t ya? 1/n 2122

Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026One of my other dogs is a husky mix, and she will close the lid of my laptop if she decides that I’ve been staring at it too long and therefore not petting her. And she won’t take no for an answer. Sweet and stubborn: absolutely a husky thing. 010
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Yesterday, he yanked a pillow from underneath my head and wriggled under me so he could be the pillow. He’s either treating me like a weighted blanket, enjoying the snuggling, or getting satisfaction from having a job to do. He’s been with me 10 years, and this is just what he’s like. 000
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026He’s been with me for ten years so far, and I’m thankful for every day of it. 030
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Max is a rescue who isn’t affectionate with people. His displays of love used to be staring intently from across a room. He was eight years old when he figured out that cuddling was kinda nice. And now here we are, and I wouldn’t give it up for the world. 070

Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Today, we reached a next level. I had grabbed a non-dog pillow and laid down on the sofa. Immediately, Max came into the room, *pulled the pillow out from under my head*, jumped up on the sofa, and insisted that he was my one and only true pillow. 81973
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Several months ago, I took a couple short naps on the sofa where I laid my head on my dog Max like he was a pillow. He didn't seem to mind and didn't move until I woke up. Now if I lay down on the sofa for a nap, he grumbles until I let him be my pillow. 913247134

Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 16/06/2026It doesn't matter if you or anyone you know did anything illegal. Don't politely tell them anything, even if you think they'll go away if you're obviously innocent. Anything you say outside of the Miranda Rights reading can be used against you in a court of law. Shut up and call thy lawyer. 091
Melissa Kaercher @chebutykin.bsky.social · 16/06/2026This corrupt administration may be playing dirty, but your best defense is slow them down. They're looking for easy wins. If you gum up the works with YOUR RIGHTS, you not only make it less likely they'll follow through with you, you'll also make it harder for them to attack others. 1101
