UK voters were SO PAINFULLY CLEAR at the last election that they were giving Labour ONE LAST CHANCE to do something and Starmer fumblefucked at the goal line. You can’t blame them for holding to that. I hope US Dems take note. It’s not enough to be “not Republican”. You have to DO SOMETHING.

Minnesota did not go through all that to have people who live elsewhere do a weird one-up thing. It’s not a competition and we’re all in it together Resistance will look different in New York just like it did in Chicago and LA. We learned from those before us and we’ve got your back too ✊

The worst MD grifter is back on her ivermectin shit again and I need assurances that once this is all over she gets stripped of everything that allows her to practice medicine. My sanity is hanging on by a thread.

It’s going to take decades and cost thousands of lives to undo the catastrophic damage to public health and medical care this addlepated fuckmuppet did in 4 years. And I want him to rot in prison for his part in it. I want justice and revenge.

My dad is dead - no MH treatment, committed suicide. I was 3. My little brother is in prison. Off his meds, ran from the cops & threatened to blow up a gas station. My older brother won't take his meds & spends all day arguing with voices in his head. I'd be dead without MH care & the right meds. 1/

Has been a thing for sometime. This is my fave one-stop source for safe, tested canning recipes and processes. Follow a tested recipe, exactly, every time. Canning is not a measure with your heart activity. safecanningrecipez.blogspot.com?m=1

Anytime you get a canning/preservation recipe PLEASE VERIFY the safety of that recipe bc I just learned “rebel canning” is a thing and absolutely nobody has time for botulism right now 😒

If my Pops were still alive I’d thank him twice for making me learn to do my own taxes at the library with the paper tax forms for 5 years. I grumped and grumbled at a whole day off in the library but God I’d hate being stupid so much more. Btw- you can still do this.

Anybody else have volume control issues for like an hour after taking Adderall? I literally have to tell myself to stop being so loud 🥴

On the plus side I woke up to my house smelling like Fabuloso and righteousness 😈

Update: I got stung by a bee. I give up!

I spent the hour since this post trying unsuccessfully to coax Rosie out from various hiding places to go to her vet & grooming appointment and the dog took it as an opportunity to go through 3 trash cans. BUT MAYBE I CAN STILL TURN THIS DAY AROUND 🫠

Christ I woke up in the most miserable fucking mood. Like eyes open and BAM straight irritation and a sour stomach. But I got myself to the store, tits akimbo, to get Bubba a boxed lunch for his field trip at 6:30 am so maybe I can still turn this day around 😑

Prevention doesn’t look like DARE. Prevention looks like robust parental leave. A minimum wage adequate for a decent living. Well-funded public schools and after-school programming. Head Start. Healthy food. Community. Support for families. On-ramps to college. Safe housing for everyone.

Today my Big Projects are finishing ICS training, taking apart the front loader washer to get *whatever* that smell is out, and finding where the *other* smell in the house is coming from. My tools? Needle nose pliers, a mask, and unrivaled audacity. Let’s see how this goes.

My husband is a goddamn Disney Princess 😂

Lifeguard. $3.75/hr in 1993. My last year in 1997 I made $4.25/hr. I started waiting tables that year for $2.13/hr. In 2026 at the same restaurant and same city the waitstaff still makes $2.13/hr.

I know I’m RT-ing an older post but this whole antivaxx bullshit is actually killing children. Measles is not a harmless childhood infection. It has the potential to be deadly YEARS after infection. Get. Your. Shots. nypost.com/2026/03/09/h...

And that’s all there is to it. The Feminist DFL Caucus failed and instead of taking accountability they ran to Daddy to clean things up for them. Very proud to know Jason and see that they truly value trans community members and continues to fight for them 💜

Europeans coming to America for the World Cup- do NOT do anything that might result in an ambulance ride. I PROMISE you can’t afford it. No you can’t walk to MetLife Stadium No you can’t swim in that lake No you shouldn’t buy Jell-O shots from the guy on the corner Sweet High Deductible Jesus…

The accident at Chornobyl happened 40 years ago this Sunday, 4/26. Here is my explainer for what happened. Might write something new on current status & what we know about long-term impacts this weekend.

Okay, heard back from RCSI Dublin & I’ll get an email when their application cycle opens and finished prepping my CASPA application to be ready for submission on April 30th. I’ve only wanted something this badly one other time in my life and he’s been with me for 20 years. May my luck hold true!

I’m a (mostly) white, cis, het, middle class woman. The DFL literally courts my vote. And this kind of pathetic cowardice is exactly why they can’t secure my support or donations. I’m not 5 fucking years old. If you’re too cowardly to call in your own you’re too weak for the fight ahead.

These two have been buddies since we got Tonka when Bubba was 4. The last few nights Bubba has been falling asleep with him & it absolutely melts my heart.

Contrast to how civilians put themselves in true danger for each other within minutes during the ICE raids these past couple months.

"Blessed are the peacemakers ... " This pope guy keeps quoting some dude named Jesus & I'm starting to think he's reading a different book than American evangelicals.

So I came to TX to tell my die hard Republican mom her grandson is trans and I will absolutely admit I did not have high hopes. That was my bad. Meema doesn’t play about her grandbabies- she loves them just as fiercely as the day they were born. There is hope in love 💜

If private equity gets their filthy hands on HEB I will burn this entire state to the ground.

Headed to Houston 😑 It’s for a good and necessary reason but damn I hate going back.

The happiest of birthday wishes to the love of my life and funder of my bail- @sleepyneutrons.bsky.social 💜💜💜

"Why don't Americans–" Motherfucker, I live in Minneapolis

I gave up on cooking holiday feasts when my kids were little. Half the time they would just pick at it and eat 6 buttered rolls and a mountain of mashed potatoes. We’d end up with so much leftover it was impossible to use. Ever since I stopped holidays became infinitely less stressful. Anyone else?

Point Lookout, Maryland is so beautiful. All this beauty and sun for $3 💜💜💜

I missed Trans Day of Visibility on here but I DO want to say that TRANS KIDS ARE LOVED IN THIS HOUSE MOTHERFUCKERS 💜💜💜 Grateful beyond words to the trans community for helping me be the mom who loves her kid fiercely and openly and unapologetically. And honored beyond words to be his mom 💜

🏳️‍⚧️ I couldn't be happier for or more proud of my 18YO. He is the person he wants to be & that changed him in ways so far beyond the physical. He's comfortable in his own skin & the confidence that gives him is a sea change from before. We almost lost him & now that's the last worry I have. 🏳️‍⚧️

I am the bitchiest most short-tempered person when I’m sick so I absolutely call off work. No way y’all wanna deal with word vomit and actual vomit at the same time.

I had to buy a new vacuum today bc I broke the old one and I’m so thoroughly disgusted by the state of my carpet 🤢

Today I planted 2 raspberry bushes & a blueberry shrub, & seeded pumpkins, carrots, watermelon, thyme, chives, and morning glory and sorted through what feels like 3 household worth of tools. ‘Twas a good and productive day 💜💜💜

Doing one of the once a decade purges this week and it just reinforced to me how much LESS space I’d be happy with. Less house, less stuff- every bag I toss or consolidate brings me peace 💜

Every part of my body is crying in pain but I CLEANED THE WHOLE GARAGE 🔥🔥🔥

The rules of triage exist for a reason. You don’t get to pick the victim. A GSW trumps an anxiety attack for transport and that’s not negotiable. Leaving a GSW victim on scene for 10 additional minutes bc an officer “just had to get out of there” is not going to save your license or career.

My friend called me as I was doing yard work yesterday saying “Nothing’s up, you were just on my mind and I wanted to say hi.” Fuck my bank account I am RICH 🥹🥹🥹

One of the cats perma-napped a baby mouse in the living room and I absolutely woke @sleepyneutrons.bsky.social up to dispose of the body. I worked in genetics research for 4 years I REFUSE to handle another dead mouse. Ever.

I’ve lived all over these United States and can concretely say that Minneapolis is objectively the best city 💜💜💜

One was a crop duster/treasure hunter/mayor. He wrote to Fidel Castro for pothole money and taught me to use an AR-15. The other was a Sailor/shipyard worker/supervisor who taught me to cuss with style. I’m not fit for public office, y’all 😂

My hobby is woodwork and I’ve upcycled or refurbished 6 dressers. It’s surprisingly easy and affordable if you’re looking for a way to furnish on a budget 💜 Great project for beginners!

We need an overhaul of the EMS system specifically with regards to licensing and training. There is no reason it should be this goddamn frustrating to get a cert reinstated or transferred in a new state. We should all be under a general NREMT with states augmenting training requirements as needed.

Agree, in hindsight it was a huge mistake not to revoke MD & DO degrees themselves when the anti-vaxx/grifter campaign began in the early 2000s. The AMA claimed that revoking practicing licenses & board certs was enough. It wasn’t and we need to be positively draconian about it now.

Hey UK Friends- I’m watching a lot of Labour meltdown videos after Greens won an election… Help please. A crumb of context for those of us not on the metric system 😭

So here’s the thing- you can only trade on the cache of “heroic first responders” for so long and that time ended roughly 30 years ago. Between private equity and the near total reliance on volunteers and pay-per-call, Fire/EMS is about to collapse without significant funding overhauls.
