I do work a lot but sometimes I get paid to watch ski movies and that is pretty cool.

This is an interesting article. As someone who likes reading medium to long format pieces I have always thought that being able to pay a small amount per article say 50 cents or a dollar was the best solution.

I think another lesson to take from the loss of both Dolly and Tim Curry is that neither of them took themselves seriously but they took the work dead serious that's the most important thing pour all of yourself into the craft but have fun and don't get an ego.

I agree strongly with this -- in that difficult moment, the possibility of collective effort was conceivable. Not everybody felt it, but many did. I think the political class did not like this one bit.

He hated being back in the UK. PLUS… (1/2)

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but your desire to have a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, endless cups of tea, a riveting novel, a plate of freshly-baked emotional support scones, and a bookshelf with a rolling ladder doesn’t make you “too needy."

I attended Cole’s talk about their book at the Community Library in Ketchum on Wednesday. It was encouraging to be in a room full of people who believe that Idaho should be a better place to live for everyone. I am looking forward to reading this book.

Happy Trans day of visibility! Trans people are some of the coolest and nicest people I know. They deserve so much more support and safety than they receive. No one’s life should be made harder because of their identity. Support trans people.

The last chance to stop the criminalization of trans Idahoans is a veto. I will be absolutely shocked if Brad Little vetoes this, as his only priority is remaining governor. I think it would take thousands of voices in opposition, which we do not have. We do what we can! 208-334-2100 and this form ⬇️

Every year, January to April, people accuse me of fearmongering in my reporting. Every year around this time, bills pass. And without fail, every year, the ratchet tightens. And now Idaho just passed a bill that could put me in prison for years—for washing my hands in a bathroom.

Nearly every Republican-held seat in the Idaho Legislature is being contested this year. No matter where you live, you will be able to vote for, volunteer for, and donate to Democrats who are committed to restoring some human decency to the Statehouse. You can be a part of making that change.

The Idaho legislature is the worst part of living in Idaho. They have mismanaged the state budget. Now they turn back to spreading hate and fear which they feel is more important. They are determined to attack freedom and making the state a worse place to live unless you look like them.

We condemn the Idaho House for passing one of the most extreme anti-trans bathroom bills in the nation. HB 752 would make it a crime for a trans person to use gender-aligned public bathrooms, with punishments of up to 5 years in prison. Learn more about this bill: buff.ly/9lDShqv
