Boise’s community orchestra, Serenata Orchestra has our fundraiser this Saturday. It’s a 5k with musicians staged along the route. We offer 4 free concerts to the community each year and events like these make it possible. runsignup.com/Race/ID/Bois...

Watching my puppy innocently chase bees in the yard and pleading with my congressmen to DO SOMETHING to stop genocide. What the hell?? 5calls.org/issue/stop-i...

From Reclaim Idaho’s FB. Please call Gov.Little and ask for a veto on HB 516. It’s simply an attack on teachers’ unions. They failed to pass the attack on all public unions last year, so they just went for teachers this year.

SaveUSFS.org is live. This week we’re going after six major outdoor brands. Companies that have spoken out for public lands before. Companies that built their whole identity around wild places. We need them to speak out again.

“When one flag goes down, thousands go up.” (City Council member Jimmy Hallyburton) Sending my love to our trans and LBGTQ+ family.

When calling the governor to veto HB 752, please also ask him to veto HB 822. This is the bill that fines educators and healthcare workers for not reporting minors who attempt to “socially transition” within 72 hours. This not being covered and it’s outrageous. www.idahoednews.org/top-news/sta...

Boise, Idaho #nokings

This is a deeply shameful bill. They can claim it's about protecting women all they like, but they've never provided evidence of that. It's always been about banning trans people. Not just from peeing, but from existing in Idaho. This is why they got so mad about the "Everyone is welcome here" sign.

Time to reach out to your Idaho Senator. HB 752 just passed out of the senate committee and onto the full senate. It is the very inhumane bathroom bill, oh and allow male coaches in female locker rooms.

A definite Highlight of the Olympics

I visited the capital for the education town hall today. Things are bad. The historic photos are fun though-Turkey Derby in Hailey 1960.

The parent agency of ICE is leasing new space in Meridian. What we know www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/c...

So as Bad Bunny performs at this Super Bowl, if it wasn’t pointed out, earlier the New England Patriots ran out on to the field to “Crazy Train” by Ozzy Osbourne, a musician from Old England. Which if you didn’t know, is not even an American territory, like Puerto Rico

Bad Bunny: Before I say thanks to god, I'm going to say, ICE out. We are not savage, we are not animals, we are not aliens, we are humans and we are Americans.

We are still raising funds for this campaign. In an era of budget cuts, this will help us fill the gaps and put quality instruments in deserving students’ hands. mhopus.org/adopt-a-scho...

Fish and Game’s advice this week was to scare the turkeys away (and don’t feed!! Why do people feed them?!?) I think those in the NE can make this fun. We just used an air horn and they all moved right along.

“We are a Minneapolis 2nd grade Brownie Troop of 12 including trans and neurodiverse youth and 75% BIPOC kids. We want to go to summer camp and try horseback riding! During the current ICE occupation we need your support more than ever...” And that’s how I ordered 4 boxes of thin mints.

I’m still recovering from SNL’s cold open with a mournful rendition of the theme from America’s Funniest Home Videos. 😂😭🤣

Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

This directory of places to donate to all comes from activists on the ground, plugged into the situation. Everything is vetted, with the exception of individual GoFundMes.

Correction. Today's protest is at Boise City Hall.

Take a screenshot of this GIF, and whichever new word you land on is YOUR word for 2026. Let's. Go.

We utterly failed at buying a car today. The dealerships were slammed with customers. One told us they’d done so well this month they didn’t need to pressure us. In this economy? What the hell?

I’m gonna keep this one to reuse in 2029.

NORAD is using "Gulf of Mexico" on their Santa tracker. That's hilarious!

I told my son that the Atlantic reported that the “six seven” phenomenon was over and my kid rolled his eyes and said, “respectfully, no kid is reading that magazine.”

Boise punches above their weight in the arts. We are so lucky to have the arts organizations that keep fighting to bring their work to us. LED’s Rat King was pure JOY! Thank you, LED! 🎄🐀👑

This was taken as I was rollerblading with my dog. Now the turkeys have a van, it’s only a matter of time until they start playing some shows. I’ll let you know.

Thank you Anne for tearing into this article. I’ve taught for 20 years and I feel the same way. In addition, I’ll tell you what fills the room with anxiety and distraction-mass shootings and the many drills designed after them. The author didn’t mention that piece of broken system.

This is my kind of good trouble.
