When people are afraid to go to work, afraid to shop, or afraid to gather in their community, it hurts families, neighborhoods, and our entire economy. If you can, show up for a small business and let’s continue to show the nation what it means to respond with care and decency.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Speaker Mike Johnson wants you to know, "I'm grateful to God for being able to get this Bill done. Our rights did not come from the government; they came from God himself." On behalf of Democracy loving Americans, I say this to Speaker Mike Johnson: Go F*ck Yourself.

Gail Smith made this tribute to the historic “blue and white” appliqué in 2012. Thousands of hours went into this quilt, which was completed in 2014 - She was a great lady. Rest in peace, Gail H. Smith.

Meta now allows women to be called ‘property’ and LGBTQ+ folks labeled ‘mentally ill.’ Watching people justify staying on Meta —‘It’s just where everyone is!’—is wild. At what point do convenience and connection outweigh complicity in a system harming the most vulnerable? Asking for humanity.

Meta’s new hate speech rules allow users to call LGBTQ people mentally ill

Changes to its hate speech guidelines were among broader policy shifts Meta made to its moderation practices.

It may be that when we no longer know what to do we have come to our real work, and that when we no longer know which way to go we have come to our real journey. The mind that is not baffled is not employed. The impeded stream is the one that sings. by Wendell Berry, poet, Standing by Words. 1983

A moment of joy in soft form.

A photo of part of a pineapple style quilt, made with trips of black, white and bright colours. The machine quilting adds a layer of bumpy, soft texture.

In northern Minnesota, you’ll need a winter fixation & a summer fixation. As we transition into winter, here is my favorite muskies caught & released in my Muskie season of 2024. The boat is put away… and now we quilt.
