Watching the video of a regular citizen stop a gunman while taking fire at Bondi Beach made me think of Uvalde, and the shame that should never go away.

For fucks sake

Honestly, MTG seems like she got therapy and meds. Still an absolutely loathsome person, but more balanced.

Once again: Thank you, St Paul, for making it easy to vote.

if Bluesky had a dislike button, I would immediately use it on all my posts

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation. Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Got a new IUD and a covid vaccine today. That shouldn't feel like civil disobedience, but it does.

I've never been more Midwestern than right now, eating homemade bread and butter pickle slices out of a giant jar as my friend regales me with stories about her day at the Minnesota State Fair.

I love the west side of St Paul. The yard has like 5 chickens in it.

Between Hegseth and the president, I've never seen grown men whine so much about all the power they have.

Democrats texting for money: I'd be more inclined to donate if instead of talking about beating GOP rivals, you promise to oust Schumer & other Dems who block real progress

Would really love for billionaires to hurry up and get to the "end-stage Howard Hughes" part of their wealth crusade where they become recluses and start storing their pee in jars.

I was not expecting the Pop-it Wikipedia to be such a roller coaster.

[struggling to get the lid off a bottle I just closed] "HOLY SHIT, I'M STRONGER THAN MYSELF!"

Good job everyone

Someone told me "you only get one life" and I'm just so excited. I can't wait.

We mourn for Melissa and her family, but we also demand accountability. We might be flyover country but we will not be silenced.

A text thread between my best friend and I in which we give each other movie/book recommendations and micro history/health/political lectures is my favorite social media.

it’s just so deeply important to me that something embarassing happens

Ope, we are pissed!

Internet, do your thing. This suspected killer is at large in the Twin Cities and likely looking to flee: www.twincities.com/2025/06/14/v...

It really says something that Minnesota still showed out like this even with their lives under threat, with a politically motivated killer who reportedly had materials relates to this event in his vehicle. Incredible state and incredible people.

Who was MN Rep. Melissa Hortman in the MN Legislature? READ about her consequential leadership in this THREAD by @taniel.bsky.social. Take the time.

Big turnout at Minnesota State Capitol.

Besides the terrifying reality of political assassination, Melissa Hortman and her husband were parents. 2 young people lost both of their parents today.

Disgusting. Absolutely sick. This country needs help and a lot less guns.

Thank you to everyone explaining to me what the true meaning of this tiff is. I was sleeping between 2016 and now, my first rodeo since being born yesterday

Been doing a little social media cleanse lately but ooooh boy what a great afternoon to open the internet.

Stealing kids and secretly shipping them to a foreign country is the definition of child trafficking, isn't it.

[struggling to get the lid off a bottle I just closed] "HOLY SHIT, I'M STRONGER THAN MYSELF!"

Everyone has their own priorities and no one can possibly attend to or care about every fire this regime sets. But ppl being disappeared without due process and sent to a foreign prison should fully panic everyone body and soul and I need more folks with bigger voices to start screaming about it

Glad my comments got posted in their entirety. Not feeling super trusting of local media, especially when their caption writers say exactly the opposite of what I said. #Tariffs @fox9mn.bsky.social, I would appreciate a formal correction here.

Some people like to say Agree to disagree, but I like to say Nope.

The house just passed the SAVE act and 4 democrats voted for it. This bill would require your ID to match your birth certificate. 79% of married women take their spouse's last name.

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

Just shoved a granola bar wrapper back into the couch cushions because that's not what I was looking for.

Hey Minnesota! If you have the opportunity and want to show up, there's a march today at noon protesting the federal cuts being made here. This includes heating assistance for low income individuals and so much more. It will also lead to the elimination of many jobs.

Thursday's march will travel from the Freeman Office Building to the Centennial Building.

"Pardon me as I slip into something more comfortable." [I just get in bed and go to sleep]

Anything can be fancy if you put the word gourmet in front of it. Like right now, I'm eating gourmet ramen in my gourmet pajamas.

I take off my blindfold. Before me is a gory tableau of death and destruction, bodies strewn across the landscape. The piñata is unscathed.

Making decisions has become a little easier since I hired a sommolier to follow me around saying, "Excellent choice, madame!"

"Pardon me as I slip into something more comfortable." [I just get in bed and go to sleep]

i know the 'Irish stock market' is a real thing but it sounds vaguely racist to me. like it's what the Americans call a board behind the bar with all the drink prices on it

Couldn't think of the word sunglasses. Just called them "plastic eye curtains".

Excited to announce that I have de-extincted the Dire Doodle.
