LET MINNESOTA IN GUYS

Opinion | Firing talkshow hosts is not a free speech issue. Company should be free to hire and fire at will. Universities on the other hand need to hire many more conservative professors.

Things are very very dark but I got a bunch of things crossed off my to do list today so there’s that.

Oh yeah, good thing the Supreme Court cares about precedent.

My child is made up primarily of ritz crackers

Everyone’s dressed up as cowboys, country music is inescapable, every other TV ad is telling you to not be ashamed of being American, networks are backing away from anything that might upset Right Wing Joe Schmoe: We’re back in 2004 baby.

Guys. An actual ironic example.

Some things are better left a mystery, my friends.

Do your mental health a favor and turn this on for today. You really don't want to watch this. It is awful.

#Minneapolis friends: Can anyone point me to LGBTQ+ resources in the #TwinCities that are mobilizing to counteract anti-trans backlash after the Annunciation shooting? I have co-workers with trans kids that are asking me what resources may be available to them right now.

Following up on ways to help the victims' families through the Minneapolis Foundation. Text ACF1 to 41444 to donate.

Just arrived at the Annunciation vigil. If you see a short gal with a striped back and white shirt and a green bike backpack, come say hello.

Finding joy today where I can. Like watching this baby wedge herself inexplicably underneath the porch coffee table.

This picture makes me viscerally sick to my stomach. As a parent, I'd run over shards of glass barefoot for miles to get to my daughter. I can't even imagine.
