U.S. Attorney for MN Daniel Rosen is now speaking. He's saying a "tolerance for fraud has infected state government." Rosen is saying that Minnesota has encouraged noncitizens to vote. Says we have a "culture of fraud." Says the guy who spent most of Metro Surge in Florida.

Kinda feeling a bit burnt out on sourdough this week (I’ll get back on it soon), so today (*yesterday, but Bluesky wouldn’t let me post images) it’s a whole-wheat loaf with red bulgur and, oh boy, is it tasty. Just a bit of honey, but it’s a good level of sweetness.

I asked my echocardiogram tech, "can I get a picture of my heart?" They sighed and said, "yes, but you have to request one. The OBGYNs get those special printers where they can print out the ultrasound right there. I keep complaining that WE don't get one, but no one listens." I love them.

the brand safety panopticon has come to twitch
Streamers, wary of both AI and YouTube’s infuriatingly un-transparent hall of mirrors, are not enthused about this new development.

“Ohhh so that’s why ad revenue dropped,” longtime streamer JP "itmeJP" McDaniel said on Twitter.  

“I’m genuinely worried that the sheer fact that I’m a lesbian will cause the AI to remove ads,” said Vtuber LuminusRed. “In the past I’ve tested it and confirmed that I get less ad money if I had queer-related tags on my stream like ‘lesbian,’ so I am worried this dumb AI monitoring will mean I no longer get money from ads on Twitch.”

I’m up for this fight! County government is on the front lines of defense against the attacks from the Trump administration.
From cutting SNAP and Medicaid, to terrorizing our communities during Operation Metro Surge, I am fighting back against their attacks, while meeting the needs for families across the county.
Even with the accomplishments we have achieved this past year, we still have challenges ahead of us. What fuels my determination is the incredible resolve I see in our community every day.

I am running to be in the fight for economic justice with each and every one of you.

In 2018, Annalinda Martinez and her daughters became homeless. She went to Georgia's child welfare agency looking for help finding housing. Instead, the state took her children. Then DFCS began charging her for their foster care. Those bills eventually left her $13,000 in debt.

Georgia removed her kids because she was homeless. The state is charging her $13,000 for foster care
Georgia is among several states that have moved away from charging parents for their kids' time in foster care. But parents who already owe money for past cases are still on the hook.

Tweed is such a beautiful fabric to wear this time of year because it produces, in Dolly Parton's phrasing, a coat of many colors. Even a solid-colored brown is not just brown, but bits of red, blue, and yellow to produce something that looks lifted off the Scottish landscape.
There are two photos taped together. The top shows a brown stone building with a brown thatched roof. It's surrounded by green grass, stone walkways, and blue-gray sea. Below is a checked brown tweed that reflects the colors in the landscape above it. There are two photos taped together. The one at te top shows a rocky hillside with green and straw-colored grass, gray rocks, and a tan sandy beach below. The blue waters are crashing at the shore.
