Kimmel and Colbert can start their own media operations and be hits from the first day. I'll be among the people who'll gladly pay to keep them -- and, this is key, their brilliant colleagues who do much if not most of the reporting and writing -- prominent in the emerging media ecosystem. 5/8

At long last! We have our own tiki lounge! If you're in the area, run to Starbird lounge in #moorheadmn. A great vibe, anchored by local music and strong, delish drinks. #fargomoorhead #northdakota #MNastodon #TikiBars #minnesota

All the talent and is just sitting there to create a powerhouse crowd sourced multimedia U.S. liberal news and entertainment empire. #KIMMEL, #Colbert, #maddow and #JonStewart. Whatever any of them choose to do next, it needs to include and lean into #opensocial as one of their channels.

It took me awhile, but I finally reached Climax. Thank you for your attention to this matter. #MNastodon #climax #minnesota #tyfyattm #juvenilejokes

Wrote about how Trump not remembering who Melissa Hortman was, shows how he's signalling to his supporters that committing violence against his opponents is fine, since their history and the violence will be quickly forgotten.

@kbeninato Bullseye! LOL

Less than a week after shaking off #covid19 with the help of #Paxlovid, I finished a 10k race today, taking 13 minutes off my last time. Thank you, #scientists and #vaccines. Btw, another family member (about same age) who caught covid at the same event as I did, and displayed symptoms starting […]

Day 5 with #covid19: Slept well last night, and feel completely fine today. No symptoms, just very hungry. I still have today and tomorrow on #Paxlovid. I am surprised it improved so quickly. Still social distancing. I took a 3 mile walk today and it felt great.

Day 4 with #covid19. I was in bed 14 hours, extremely low energy today. I don't feel "bad", just super tired and very hungry, and my brain is foggy and slow. No other symptoms today, so far. This is in contrast to yesterday when I wanted to be active; I took a 5K walk, mowed the grass, drove to […]

As far as I can find, only one major journalism organization -- the Guardian -- published an accurate and contextual headline describing Trump's illegal executive order on voting. What made the difference? The Guardian added the word "unconstitutional". Come on, journos, do your damn jobs.

Day 3 with #covid19. Its been 3 years since my last infection. The first time around was severe, having lost taste and smell, and struggled to breathe, was ill nearly 2 weeks. I have kept up with vaccinations (except this season). Compared to last time, this is fairly mild, but still no fun […]

Welp, I tested positive for #covid19 today. Now my holiday will be spent at home forming an opinion on #Paxlovid, rather than beer drinking at the lake, infecting family and friends.

A lovely golden #silentsunday #sunset over Big Detroit, Detroit Lakes, #minnesota, last Thursday.

Sometimes I just post THIS happy photo showing the JOY of good government. My take away for myself & others is when you have a chance to promote joy, do it. Governor Tim Walz surrounded by smiling kids hugging him after signing the bill to feed school kids in #Minnesota. #empathyavengers

I'm a big R.E.M. fan from way back. I even trekked to Athens to visit the 40 Watt Club. I like R.E.M. almost as much as my native Mats (The Replacements). Anyway, enjoy my favorite R E.M. song, the one I put on auto repeat to chill frayed nerves and calm a loud mind […]
