Welcome to the Target Boycott...a year after it started. Please don't try to take credit for something Black women started.

I remember when Mark Dayton recognized that the Primary was his strategy, and he didn't waste everyone's time with the convention process. You can't shit all over the convention process AND compete in the process.

Unsurprisingly, I don't think he knows the difference between a windmill and a wind turbine.

Ahhhh, love to wake up after a nice (checks CPAP) . . . 2 hours of sleep. Oh for fuck's sake. Just added several more people to the Ope list since I was up. (It's a silly name, but I was trying to keep things short when I created it. Maybe it's short for "Ope, the MSP Feed is down.")

ELECT MORE WOMEN

I hope JD Vance comes to Minnesota to campaign for Finstad.

Cardinal Cupich: "We're dehumanizing the victims of war by turning the suffering of people & killing of children & our own soldiers into entertainment. To splice together movie cuts w/ actual bombings & targeting of people for purposes of entertainment is sickening. This is not who we are."

I showed up to not my senate district (64) just to participate in a 15 minute uncontested endorsement for my County Commissioner. Just in case you’re wondering how much I love conventions. #dfl

results of the first walk

😮😮😮😮

Sweaty, joyful, sub caucusing at the #Mighty64 DFL convention.

At the SD 64 convention but the AC is out and I can’t deal with the heat so no updates. All uncontested races.

This guy is going to kill someone. This needs to be taken seriously

Earlier, I posted a video of a lady octopus throwing rocks at an annoying male. It has been brought to my attention the video was AI. Since I abhor AI, I’ve deleted that post. Please enjoy this real video of a lady octopus throwing stuff at annoying males with my apologies.

First ballot counting is completed, and two candidates opted to withdraw from the contest affording @dfl.org endorsement of Christos Jensen for 52A by acclamation.

Sounds like there's an endorsement in 52a!

here are the final delegate allotments for the sd63 DFL convention

the faith in minnesota uncommitted subcaucus has adjusted and become committed for ilhan omar only, and zack filipovich has a subcaucus here (so does adam jennings though)

Virnig endorsed for 52B. Candidates for 52A speaking now. Ballot soon. Most cheers (unscientific) for Jensen.

Tomorrow I'm showing up to the SD64DFL convention because there is a VERY short Ramsey County DFL convention beforehand without a contested race. Why? Because I was elected to do so. (And I'll get to say hi to @tpqrs.bsky.social and @epmurphymn.bsky.social )

There are 14 DFL conventions today. Good luck folks!

Greatest. Correction. Ever.

This is what they do when I’m on the phone.

A guy walked directly into me in the Menard's parking lot because he was....wait for it...CLIPPING HIS FINGERNAILS while he was walking to his car. We're not gonna make it as a species, are we?

There it is. Guess I'll make dinner.

You know what I don't need at the specific moment in time? More helicopters. #iceout #MN

I'd really like to complain about how hard these side effects are hitting me today. But we might all die later today so guess I should just deal with it?

Hey folks. These are the only actual photos from the Artemis crew. Plenty of cool photos to share that aren't AI. If it's not here, it's a fake AI photo. Stop it. www.nasa.gov/gallery/jour...

Not fucking around with this sickness. Also have jello and popsicles

I know everyone is going to be shocked about this. He got me sick. Yesterday was MTX day so now I'm sick and side effects. And will likely need to skip my dose next week. And I have strong feelings about how this happened.

As my dad was dying and losing oxygen to his brain, we watched this kind of unhinged shit.

Happy Easter if that's your thing

CD4 sub caucus at SD33 convention was allowed 9 delegates to state convention. 6 endorsed Flanagan, 2 Craig. The 9th is probably also Flanagan. The volunteer for Peggy did a perfect job balancing the walking caucus to max her delegate count.

So proud of my @afscme.bsky.social sister Angela for earning the DFL endorsement for HD33a!

Next up is Angela Thompson who is running in HD33A. The incumbent (GOP) Patti Anderson just announced retirement, so it’s open! Angela is on the White Bear Lake Area School Board (includes Hugo in 33). She’s an AFSCME member, work as an ICWA Guardian Ad Litem. She’s badass.

Love being able to yell “Hey! That’s my Mayor” while in someone else’s city. SD33DFL convention

Got to chat with @kobey4governor.bsky.social today. My union hadn’t endorsed in this race yet, but I love chatting pro-union candidates.

So, good news! The resolution on the rights to gender affirming care has passed out of OUs in two congressional districts: 5 and 8! This fulfills one of the two requirements for consideration by the state convention. We are waiting on results from other areas, but it looks likely in several others!

Twice recently, I've had conversations with up-and-coming women running for office that had me in my car yelling out-loud "LET'S FUCKING GO". Then immediately breaking down because Melissa would be so proud and she's not fucking here to see these amazing women. And it's NOT FUCKING OKAY. But LFG!!!!

I'm going to go hang out at SD33 tomorrow to help a friend. 18 delegates up for grabs at this one. It's also a mix of CD8 and CD4.

When you’re immunocompromised and your spouse is sick AF but isn’t isolating or masking himself. 🙄

I very, very specifically chose this neighborhood in Saint Paul, instead of Woodbury. I don't care Who the fuck parks in front of my house. And I'll still help that person dig out if they get stuck in the snow. It's called community.

Wait. We're NOT going to the moon? Just AROUND it? Why does every new station say TO the moon? I'm going to start using "I went TO Harvard" on my resume, but actually just drive around it.

Did we all know we could get our own personal hand-held awoos?!?!?! www.amazon.com/MYFULLY-Hand...

#ThisIsSjögrens April is Sjögren’s disease awareness month. I have Sjögren’s disease. Sjögren's is a systemic autoimmune disease that affects the entire body. But most commonly known for causing your body to attack its own moisture-producing glands, causing dry eyes and mouth.

WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK

Just starting Season 7 of Spooks (MI5). And so help me if anything happens to Malcolm I'm going to write a sternly worded letter to the manager. I'm still mad about Collin.

The more I sit on this, the more livid I am

The Saint Paul Library (all libraries) is amazing.
