When you see a headline that makes a claim that sounds absolutely bananas & cites some “study”, don’t just believe it because the headline used one science word. Look at the source. Was it even peer reviewed? Where? What are experts in the field saying about it? If it sounds ridiculous it might be.

She stopped by my work today..... with another stack of winter coats and a bunch of brand new kids' books for my little free library. WHY IS SHE SO PERFECT? Godmother Kathy for President!

For their first project, my Kids and Society students have to create an infographic clarifying a common misconception about "kids these days." I'd prefer that they not use AI to create their projects, so I made my own infographic explaining why : )

September 30th / October 1st

Alrght everybody, get your Tin Can Telephones out. We need your help! We reach new people by word of mouth. Send all your educator friends this pic! Teachers, librarians, scout troop leaders, etc! We offer our program for free, so we need help getting the word out without advertising $$.

I love the way Columbo toys with the murderers, asking them for help with the investigation, when he knows full well they're guilty. His little smirk gives me life 😂

AP now reporting the troops being sent to Portland have been intercepted by a band of kickass magical girls.

i just ran into dewayne davis at the day of the transgender child in loring park wearing a “protect trans lives” shirt @dewayneforminneapolis.com

Hook & Ladder urgently needs donations to prevent closing! H&L is very special to Angie and me because we got married there. They do SO MUCH important work in the arts. Please don't let my community lose this place. If you can spare $5 (or even just share this post), it would mean the world to me 🥹

I AM VERY TIRED OF SUNNY AND 80

okay this is EXCELLENT 🙌

Used fresh turmeric for the first time today, and let's just say everything in my kitchen is stained yellow now, including me 😅

Two years ago today, I married the love of my life. Happy anniversary to my perfect wife, @artistangie.bsky.social ❤️❤️❤️ We celebrated last night by getting all dressed up in our wedding outfits and walking to Dairy Queen. 👑

If I won the lottery, I wouldn't say anything. But there'd be signs.

My godmother is the goodest person I know. She's pretty rich... But every time I see her, she brings me a stack of clothing that she bought *specifically* for me to donate to the homeless in Minneapolis. Last night it was a stack of winter coats. And she stuck gift cards in all the pockets 🥹

Ugh my company sent this email today. I mean great that we still have the committee?? But seriously? This isn't a name that "better reflects the committee's purpose." The purpose of this committee is DIVERSITY EQUITY AND INCLUSION. You're just scared, and you caved. At least be honest.

My company did a water challenge in August. Track your water intake for a month, then send it to HR to be entered into a drawing. Guess who won!!!! My prize was a $55 smart WaterH bottle that tracks my water intake for me! I can't believe smart water bottles are a thing lol, but I already love it 😍

Your last saved pic is your moral philosophy

my wife, popping a Tylenol: "Time for my autism vitamin!"

Damn I wish I would have seen this news sooner, but better late than never! Wildflyer Coffee is my FAVORITE. If you live in the Twin Cities, please make the switch to buying coffee here! They do so much good work to end youth homelessness. I refuse to let this administration ruin that.

Wildflyer Coffee suddenly lost 200K in grant funding. Good time to swing by one of their locations to support the important community support and training they provide

Oof that was a rough flight. I had mild nausea for maybe 2/3 of it... At least it wasn't too bad, but still. Why can't I just fly like a normal person and not get motion sickness on every other flight? 😭

At the airport again flying home. I've only seen two masks. Has the rest of the world just resigned themselves to the fact that they'll catch a cold when flying?

Just in case you need a little joy today: here are some lovely llama costumes from the 4-H costume contest at the State Fair 📸: Aaron Lavinsky/The Minnesota Star Tribune

Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings re-make, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor:

Reply to this and I'll tell you what animal you are based on vibes 🫶

I'm in Vegas visiting my parents. I left PERFECT early fall weather in Minnesota and landed in a 101 degree oven 😭

Free wifi on the plane today, woo hoo!!!!! Just watching Legally Blonde in the air. An absolute classic 🙌

At the airport this morning, and I've literally only seen *four* masks. And one of those is mine. 😭

Happy Friday, nice folks. I would like to present you with a world in which a trans woman is loved and supported and gets to fight monsters and save folks. My trans magical girl novel “Magica Riot” is in ebook, print, and audio formats. And there’s a sequel coming soon. magicariot.com/magicariot

Please reply, quote, call, email, etc. asking Governor Walz to call for a special session of the Minnesota State Legislature to address gun control. Don't let the tragedy that happened in my neighborhood be forgotten.

We refuse to let this administration take our joy... So we defiantly had a wonderful anniversary yesterday. 5 years since the day I met my wife! 5 years of joy. I can handle anything that happens in the world because, at the end of the day, I'll always have her. ❤️

My new car is now PERFECT. 🙌😍🥹

Thank you for your moral clarity @erinmayequade.bsky.social. EVERYONE should be calling for a special session. For the sake of our kids.

Just dropping this FACT in case anyone needs it in a compact and visual form.

My new car is now PERFECT. 🙌😍🥹

“I also had a terrible desire to kiss her, which I did. Every time I see a female nude, such as the Venus in my art history book, I go into ecstasy. Sometimes I find them so exquisite I have to struggle to hold back my tears. If only I had a girlfriend!” Anne Frank - Thursday, January 6, 1944

So.... I'm just supposed to go to dinner and celebrate my anniversary tonight like the entire world isn't going to hell?

I’m committed to coming together with all levels of government to address this. The lives of our future generations depend on it. 3/ *This is being reposted from CM Chavez’s Official Accounts*

These weapons and acts of violence have no place in Minneapolis or anywhere. My heart goes out to all the families, students and community members who were heavily impacted by this. 2/

I’m horrified by the mass shooting this morning at Annunciation Catholic Church/School. Our children, educators, families, residents and loved ones should never have to experience senseless acts of violence like this. 1/

There have been two mass shootings in two days in south Minneapolis. Every public official is saying something like "our prayers are with the families..." FUCK YOUR PRAYERS. What my neighborhood desperately needs is gun control.

“What’s it like to be like you? What’s it like to be beautiful and true?” 💜💙💚💛❤️ #MagicaRiot #MaidensongMagica #MagicalGirlArt

This is why I voted for him. Best city councilperson EVER (sorry Leslie Knope)
