30 Rock’s Grizzwald ‘Grizz’ Chapman has died at the age of 52. The news was confirmed by Kevin Brown, who played Dot Com.

I just cannot wait for this school year to be done. The next 14 days are going to be a lifetime.

Out at recess today, one of my favorite students was snotty crying and yelling at her friend "I want to go to space! Don't leave me here with all these people!!" Same girl, same.

‘I told his family he was HIV positive’: Keith Haring’s best friend on life with the artist as unseen works go on show

I say it again and again: Because we don’t learn the real history of this country, we do not understand what this country is capable of. After 1870, 22 Black men served in Congress. By 1901, because of racist SCOTUS rulings, electoral coups and election cheating and violence, there were none.

I can't believe I'm going to watch this dingdong "speak" about this fake ass shit.

We’ve become way too inured to the constant violence because of all of the people in power who revel in it. What a joyless, artless, sexless, rudderless country we became so fast.

Tonight’s wife-is-away meal: Huli Huli chicken on the smoker. Very good. Made a light Korean cucumber salad. Also made a package of yellow rice substituting a can of French onion soup for the water, which made it very rich and flavorful. www.traeger.com/recipes/huli...

My Ecuadorian neighbors are outside laughing and enjoying this beautiful day and it makes me so happy. I may have witnessed it firsthand, but I cannot imagine the terror they suffered this winter. Today and forever fuck 🧊

Strait's back open, T. We got two weeks to get more Persian broads into the Bing.

Absolute cinema watching that jar of Nutella escape contain behind the backs of the astronauts after packing other things away

I have been at the DFL SD39 convention all day as a delegate and we JUST got to vote for our hotly contested house seat. Looong day engaging in our democratic process.

My kind of content.

Someone sent me this.

I really hope he is going to be ok. This is very horrible. However, I appreciate that Delocated, the best show ever made, was mentioned in the article.

"So far Samba has reportedly been sighted in a pub beer garden and basking on a riverbank."

People keep saying “oh so you want OPEN BORDERS” as some kind of gotcha and like. Yeah. When I was a kid you could just drive into Canada. On accident, even. It was great, and I think we should do that instead of kidnapping children. Normalize being normal instead of being kidnapping weirdos

Did I just chant "You can do it! Yes you can! You can flush it down the can!" to a first grader who is afraid of flushing the toilet? Yes, yes I did.

We need someone to fill in at recess this week. Should I call him?

A little good news. Abolish the death penalty. Abolish prisons.

Never in a million years did I imagine I would spawn a child who, faced with the possibility of having to stay home from school because she is sick, would bust into histrionic crying. #nerdalert

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

Looking for more donations to help our Columbia Heights neighbors. Rent is due again soon and many people are still sheltering at home. Unable to work or shop for themselves out of fear. Donate to heightsnext.org/donate/ And put "mutual aid" in the comments. @mostlybree.kitrocha.com

On February 23, 1971, Angela Y. Davis released on bail. "How Angela Davis’ Focus Changed in Jail" Also, in jail, Davis wrote "Reflections on the Black Woman's Role in the Community of Slaves" to engage George Jackson, and took up yoga/self-care to survive the cell. daily.jstor.org/50-years-on-...

Hope these kids I drove to school today enjoyed the Wuthering Heights soundtrack.

This is incredible.

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

One of the terrible things about the ICE occupation of Minneapolis is that they’ve been doing stuff that is so crazy that people assume it’s some kind of exaggeration, despite being widely documented on video. Following observers home! Lurking outside elementary schools! Black-bagging citizens!

As soon as 🧊 came to my neighborhood I stopped calling them Nazi's, because I realized how they really act is more like a slave catcher. Where else did the Nazi's learn most of their tricks? From US(A).

The Minnesota state motto is officially now “We’ll Believe It When We See It.” I don’t make the rules.

This is nuts.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE: "I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Do you want to help Minneapolis out in a different way? Help set up some new street medics so that they can make sure community members are cared for at protests. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

Who keeps us safe? We keep us safe!

We are a creative people here in the north.

Tonight I caucused (is that a word?) for the first time in my life. I so enjoyed meeting more of my neighbors and being part of the process. Cannot wait to be a delegate in April. When I left the caucus all I could think was how proud my mother would have been of me.

Cried when I learned the news she was being released. Our school will be overjoyed to know she is coming home.

New week, new roundup of headlines and commentary. racketmn.com/mn-ice-watch...

Having the school day cancelled because of bomb threats really is the 🧊ing on the cake for us. 🙄

Liam goes home… www.instagram.com/reel/DUOW4_E...

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

This was one our last shows, the day of the first Trump inauguration, but the sentiment is still true, performance is a little rough but you get the idea, seethe on America, seethe on get the fuck out of MN, get the fuck out of the world

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE. They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

CNN: Are you okay? Omar :I've survived war. And I'm definitely going to survive intimidation and whatever these people think they can throw at me because I'm built that way.

Forever happy to be represented by her.
