Indivisible Twin Cities @indivistwincities.bsky.social · 14/06/2025

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

Why would I fat shame (tired, hurtful, fatphobic) when I could call you a faceless cusk (devastating, confusing, no comeback) We need better insults!!”

@booker.senate.gov emphasizing that the Declaration of Independence is a Declaration of Interdependence (“we mutually pledge…”) is what got me right in the gut. #redeemthedream

At various points I was into all of these except Insects. Not listed but also childhood obsessions: Alexandre Dumas novels, Golden Age detectives, ragtime music, King Arthur, Robin Hood, and reading the dictionary and encyclopedia

Democratic lawmakers need to understand something: Imagine your house is on fire. Fire truck shows up. Firefighters get out. They look at the fire, then at you, and say: "Such a fire is a grave threat. This house will not sustain." And just stand there. This is how many of you are coming across.

I can only assume that Ugg accidentally mass-produced something that was only ever supposed to be an SNL skit

Congratulations to Ugg for achieving remarkable new heights in boot ugliness

UGG®
Classic Ultra Ultra
Convertible Over the Knee Boot (Women)
$429.97 (28% off)
$600.00
****
Brown Ugg boot with four additional zippered segments to extend the boot upward past the knee. Each segment gets progressively lighter, from brown to tan to orange to yellow to white. The effect is kind of like a candy corn. But uglier.

Guess what’s on my Magic & Witchcraft syllabus next semester

Image of text:
"It's gone too far this time,” said a peasant. “All this burning and taxing and now this. I blame you witches. It's got to stop. I know my rights."
"What rights are they?" said Granny.
"Dunnage, cowhage-in-ordinary, badinage, leftovers, scrommidge, clary and spunt," said the peasant promptly. "And acornage, every other year, and the right to keep two-thirds of a goat on the common. Until he set fire to it. It was a bloody good goat, too."

They call this the Festival of Trees but there’s never any feasting. I think someone should eat the tree that was set up by the local “crisis pregnancy center” though

Seven or eight artificial Christmas trees are lit up in a dim indoor space. They’re colorful.

One of the most frustrating narratives links humanities majors w poor employment prospects and outcomes. “The data really does say otherwise.” I wrote abt the new & important Humanities Indicators state level report for @scholarlykitchen.bsky.social 🗃️ scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2023/12/14/h...

scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org

Humanities and Jobs Data: What's the Real Story? - The Scholarly Kitchen

Escalating attacks on the humanities often cite the problem of employment for humanities majors; a new report shows otherwise.
