I picked up a random book (My Year of Rest and Relaxation) at the library assuming I wouldn’t like it very much but that it would at least help me participate in the cultural conversation. Sometimes I go for books I think I won’t like…

You ever read a sentence that makes you realize you need to go back to therapy? Anyways “I’d rather be alone than be anybody’s live-in prostitute.” (My Year of Rest and Relaxation)

I did it! I did it. I purchased my 2027 planner. Wow. I didn’t think it could be done, so many people said I couldn’t do it, and yeah, I had a lot of self doubt about the path I was taking. But ultimately? I did it. This is what it feels like to trust your inner voice.

I’ve again been asked “why do sharks stick their dorsal fins out of the water?” This happens because shark’s dorsal fins are on top of, and therefore higher than, the rest of the shark. And sometimes the shark is in shallow water or near the surface. Hope this helps! 📷: a scene from Jaws

I can’t stop thinking about The Awakening by Kate Chopin. I don’t like it, and I don’t like that it’s so consistently seen as feminist. Just because it was seen as scandalous when it was published doesn’t make it revolutionary.

Israel deliberately targeted Palestinian children in Gaza, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes, according to a new UN inquiry. The report says more than 20,000 children were killed between October 2023 and October 2025. Israel rejected the findings.

It’s illegal in Minnesota to use plates that aren’t registered to the vehicle using them, and that applies to unmarked law enforcement vehicles. The director of Minnesota’s Driver and Vehicle Services division said in a letter to Kristi Noem that such violations “will not be tolerated.”

Another 11% of the plates reviewed by the Star Tribune had some kind of irregularity, including expired tabs from different vehicles or plates registered to a nonexistent business. A quarter of the vehicles were rentals.

We reviewed more than 100 Minnesota license plates attached to immigration enforcement vehicles in recent weeks. We found that nearly 60% were not registered with the state of Minnesota, including the Chevy Tahoe that federal agent Jonathan Ross traveled in the day he fatally shot Renee Good.

They're trying to tell us that they always get what they want. That there is nothing so hideous that they won't do it, even if it's kidnap a five year old child and then, when they lose, really try even harder to make him suffer more. Fuck them.

I think one thing people outside Minnesota don't understand is that after Good and Pretti were killed by feds while observing, the most normal people you could imagine have made peace with the fact that they could be next, and they are still out there because they say it's the right thing to do.
