I feel like maybe we need to work towards a state law that requires us to have a recall process for elected officials. Would an actual recall be very hard to achieve probably? Yes, and a high bar wouldn’t necessarily be bad?? But there have been too many instances of local shit lately

How you sleep after being a little monster all day

Putting together a family reunion movie poll really brings home 1) how hard family pleasing movies are and 2) that I apparently haven’t seen a new movie in like 10 years 😭

(Gift article) great letter to the editor. If this plan is based on numbers, MPS should be showing their work. (Reminded of when I was in college and I couldn’t figure out an equation but knew the answer was Limit goes to zero, so I wrote that. My incredibly sweet professor just wrote “magic??” 😅)

You don't get to argue that the number of trans people is so small that our rights can't be a major priority, while also claiming there are so many of us that we are going to destroy the whole country by withholding votes.

I like this quote from Tyler Hack. I hope voters continue to show alleged “progressives” that sacrificing trans people is a losing, unforgivable strategy.

Have you ever had a colleague who is so smart and helpful, and you know they will have great feedback on your current project, and then another team member says “why don’t you just ask CoPilot or ChatGPT instead?” Because I gotta tell you it is still making me mad several weeks later

Up with a migraine and kind of confused why people are angry and appalled at this. I’m 100% sure many variations of s’mores cocktails already exist. There are salted nut roll shots and bailey’s hot chocolates and grasshoppers etc etc etc.

If I hear one more dumbass coward talk about reform and in particular body cameras I swear to god. Body cameras would not have prevented the deaths, assaults, and terrorizing that happened (and is still happening!) in MN. The mother fucker who murdered Renee Good RECORDED HIMSELF ON HIS PHONE

Still loving the pollinator garden and my super sweet neighbor who cares for it 🥹
A picture of a pollinator garden with a little round sign that says “pollinator work zone” around the outside with a bee on top of a yellow flower in the middle. The garden is looking a teensy bit dry but still tall and wonderful, it has (I think) purple coneflowers and allium, and you can see the leaves of milkweek on the edges and a ton of other stuff I don’t know about

Ok I’ve seen one person say vote for Peggy Flanagan because Craig would be a bad… governor?? And one person say they didn’t vote for Senate because… they don’t trust Klobuchar?? These are for sure slips of the tongue, but also having a panic attack like I’m in back in school before a group project

I love the pollinator garden at my new place so so much. I love seeing bees. I love that a butterfly that went past my second floor window this afternoon and it was so big it gave me an actual jump scare. (I love that because of ACNH I’m 95% sure it was a Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly 😂)

Why is this so funny to me 😆 “Stauber shot back...“You have no idea what Congressman Emmer is dealing with right now… He’s fighting for his damn life today.” “…Stauber’s office clarified in an email at 4 p.m. that Emmer is “not fighting for his life. He had a series of foot surgeries.”

Also this would be a great time for men to talk about how men can also be victims of harassment, rape, and abuse. It’s a topic that deserves real discussion (not just to come up when men want to suppress discussion about the harassment, rape, and abuse women are victims of).
