More space less war please

Cumulus smileycus, one of the rarer cloud types, was seen by many of us over Billings on Thursday. Have a good, happy, smiley Friday, Montana! #Montana #smile #happy #sun #cloud #bluesky #sky #skywriting #Thursday #Friday #weather

Happy Confederate Surrender Day from Minnesota where we still have your goddamn flag and we’re not giving it up. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/28th_Vi...

After staring at the staring cat plushie for a week, I had to order it. Look at this thing! It's freaking adorable!

The bear yawned, stretched, ate some berries, scrolled through its phone for ten minutes and immediately went back in its cave.

Remember when Rep. Greg Gianforte, now the GOP governor of the state, body slammed a reporter into a table? We probably need to shut down the Montana Republican Party entirely until we can figure out where all this violent rage is coming from.

U.S. Sen. Tim Sheehy has frequently criticized renewable energy, but his own Gallatin County home appears to run on “green energy crap,” which most people would likely call a solar and battery storage system. @darrellehrlick.bsky.social: dailymontanan.com/2026/02/25/s... #mtnews #montana #mtpol

Watching the rest of the world's leaders face consequences

Someone tell RFK Jr.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

If you had told me that there would be two (small) quakes in Cascade County within 60 hours, I might not have believed you. But here we are: www.krtv.com/news/great-f...

Phew that was an adrenaline rush I didn’t need.

I don't know a single parent who can see this image and not be stirred by equal parts love and rage.

you can’t fucking dox a public official!

The rage I feel ....

This child looks devastated. We know from the courageous actions of his fellow detainees (his “fellow detainees!” He’s five!!!) in Dilley that there are others like him. I honestly don’t care if maximalist demands are bad strategic politics. We should make them because they’re important moral ones

The flag is very clear not to tread on ME. Treading on THEM is fine.

I’d rather have open borders than this. If you’re here, you’re here. Pay your taxes, don’t hurt anyone, and welcome to the neighborhood.

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

Strongly worded ransom letter.

This sure seems more like the tyranny the Constitution is supposed to protect against than forgiving student loans.

As someone who lives directly below Alberta and can see the economic effect of Albertans' boycott of the U.S., I can definitely say, they do not want what the U.S. has got. bsky.app/profile/mont...

I keep thinking about the number of people that have to be involved to kidnap a small child, transport him to one facility or another, then an airport, then a plane, then another facility. Did no one on that chain stop and say hey what the fuck?

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

It’s infuriating how many people claim to care about fictitious “child trafficking” conspiracies about trans people and Wayfair and Democrats but will miss, ignore, and distract from actual government agents kidnapping children in front of their very eyes

I'm sorry, abolishing ICE is now off the table as the centrist compromise. The floor is now The Hague.

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

The #NorthernLights in Great Falls, #Montana

Proud to have worked for the University of Montana student newspaper with John.

this is like that video of a mail carrier who always gives this one dog their person’s mail to bring back, but when he doesn’t have mail to give he just writes “mail for (dog’s name)” on a piece of scrap paper and hands it to the dog so he doesn’t feel bad

University of Montana President Seth Bodnar is expected to run for U.S. Senate as an Independent, part of an elaborate plan apparently backed by former U.S. Sen. Jon Tester in a move that has angered Democrats.

the toyota prius is older than ICE

It’s probably fine that someone’s out mowing the lawn while I walk the dog in a sweatshirt on Jan. 3 in Montana.

On this 18° December day, Giant Springs State Park was steaming in the rare sunshine. I watched a duck slide down the cascades into the Missouri River. Lots of Canada geese flying above us. This makes 12/12 months in 2025 visiting this treasured spot in #Montana.

Super glad we have solved literally every other problem.

If grocery prices are going down, why is my coffee a full $10 more than it was in January?

“He’s always at work from six to two, so she’s good in the morning,” said McAtee. “And then dinner comes and nighttime is horrible because she just screams for him. She looks for him. And I don’t know what to tell her.”

I’ll dress up when airlines bring the meat carving stations back.

My kingdom for a lawmaker who has set foot in a grocery store even once.

Here's your chance to do something about the people being starved and beaten in Broadview ICE custody. Share this post, and I'll donate $1 to the Midwest Immigration Bond Fund (www.mibfc.org). And if you make a donation to them, let me know how much and I'll match it 1:1.

IT GOT BETTER 📍Central MN

If you are able, please consider donating. It's hard enough being a teenager, but I can't imagine what it's like when you don't have access to your very basic needs.

None of what Trump is doing is popular and voters are telling us that

"Hush, Horatio. Did you not hear the Dark Lord's call? Go now and summon the others, for it is the time of The Reaping. Soon we shall be bathing in the blood of our enemies." "I don't know, Max. I'm pretty sure that was just a can opener."

What a time to turn on the game.

The optics of Trump building a ballroom that 99.9% of Americans will never set foot in while millions line up for food banks are worth more than any policy paper or economic proposal. This image is a visceral punch in the mouth that needs no words. It should haunt the GOP for a generation.
