For months, families lived in fear, children were separated from parents, and two of our neighbors were killed by federal agents. I’m establishing a council to document the impact of Metro Surge and create a public record of the harm Minnesotans endured. We will not forget.

Today I learned that there are Hatsune Miku video games. I bought some for my daughter. She is thrilled and I don't feel as bad for not being able to take her to a concert a fea months ago. I still hope to tale her next year, we just need to be prepared to beat the 300$/person aftermarket.

I hate how hard it is for me to not go poking about in my seedling tray in the plants which have not yet poked up from the soil.

Is there a way to get stickers made anonymously which could be slapped on various political yard signs to call out their fascism and pedophilia support? Asking for a friend.

My youngest daugher sat through her first full length, live action movie today (usually even cartoons are iffy). It was the first Toby McGuire Spider-man. That makes me so happy. Spider-man has always been my favorite comic and the only one I have attempted to collect (many versions and decades).

GOR-GOR!

Had a great time seeing Soulfly and GWAR last night in rva. Missed King Parrot because the merch line was nuts. My legs feel like I was on my bike all day from absorbing all of the hits and getting knocked around and trying not to fall.

Hey, I am going to see GWAR, Soulfly, and King Parrot tomorrow. Never heard of KP, checked them oit on youtube and I like. I love everything Max Cavalera does. I am hoping my friend can remember GWAR this time. Last time (1st for both of us) he got a concussion in the mosh pit.

Just watched the Honest Trailers video for Big Trouble in Little China. I need to watch it again. I consider it one of my favorite movies, yet have not seen it in a decades. Definitely between 2000 and 2005.

I think I am going to have to put my bike back on the trainer today. I don't want to, but I don't want to skip more workouts even more.

I can't believe I'm saying this and it's not a meme, but polls close at 7 in Illinois, so if you're in line to vote, STAY IN LINE. You can register TODAY with a piece of business mail and vote TODAY. Every vote counts. It's a sunnier, nicer day out than we all thought it would be! Get out there!

Whew. A lot to unpack but let me try. In this authoritarian word salad, Trump is basically saying the media is helping Iran by spreading fake stories about U.S. losses. He claims reports of damaged ships and planes are exaggerated or made up. Then pushes the FCC to strip them of their licenses.

Drifloon is definitely the most fucked up Pokèmon and also my favorite. In Pokopia, because there are no humans, it wants me to bring it dolls in hopes that previous humans' attachment will give it energy.

First Amendment violation, Brendan. I wonder if a class-action lawsuit (with 320 million of us being the injured class) might change your mind. Do this and ALL of us will see you in court.

Why did Richmond cycling advocates take it into themselves to crowdfund a bike lane sweeper? And how much did this cost? Take a listen 🎧 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

All the folks coming into Reams Elementary school this early Saturday morning aren’t here for a sporting event. They’re here to get groceries from the Chesterfield Food Bank. Are we still winning? 😓😡

Got one of these in the mail today from Justice for Democracy PAC. Can't find them listed anywhere to find donors. virginiaindependentnews.com/elections/an...

Who wore it better? #PedoPals

NEW: For the @richmonder.bsky.social, I reviewed city payment records and service contracts to find out just how much Richmond has paid Flock, the notorious surveillance-tech company that makes the ~100 always-on cameras and AI-powered software RPD uses to track cara throughout the city and state.

Donald Trump calls Thomas Massie a traitor for supporting the release of the Epstein Files. Journalists need to start asking Trump what he is trying to hide.

DOGE employee Justin Fox, during a deposition in a lawsuit “What’s DEI?” It’s exactly what was written in the EO.

Great news, everyone! My new mai tai glass works! Ignore the lak of garnish, please.

Another hush money payment.

NEW: The Iranian drone strike that killed 6 U.S. troops in Kuwait at the start of the war was far more devastating than previously disclosed. Dozens suffered traumatic brain injuries, burns, and shrapnel wounds. At least one required an amputation. More than 30 remain hospitalized. (CBS News)

Well, doesn’t that title sound honorable “Interior Proposes to Restore State-Aligned Hunting Regulations on Alaska National Preserves.” What it actually means is the Trump administration just moved to bring bear baiting back to Alaska’s national preserves.

I made an Olivetto tonight and think every Mediterranean reataurant with cocktails should have this on their menu. It sounds so weird at first, but makes so much sense when you taste it. Lemon, olive, etc.i wish mine was green like in the source reddit post. www.reddit.com/r/cocktails/...

🚨 10 DAYS! 🚨 We’re in the final stretch, within single digits of winning. And you can help us get there.

This story still isn’t going away.

The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers. So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️ https://actionnetwork.org/letters/stop-paramount-mega-media-monopoly/?source=group-ShortText

Taking advantage of the weather to grill a flatiron steak, eat some potatoes, and drink great beer from @portcitybrew.bsky.social (yeah. I bought more Monkspell).

Subpoena all of it. And him, too. The FBI found this witness credible enough to interview her four times. Enough with this cover up.

Riding my bike on the trainer winter is harder in many ways, both mental and physical. But getting back on the road each spring, I forget how many small core and upper body muscles I did not use for the last 4-6 months on a motionless trainer.

“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.” That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people. He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.

Anthropic pushed back against the Department of Defense over concerns about mass public surveillance and the use of AI in weapons systems without meaningful human oversight. Now, the DoD has labeled the company a potential national security threat.

Everyone is excited because Kristi Noem got fired. But seriously people, she wasn't fired for doing, encouraging, or allowing illegal or horrible things. Just for not being able to keep enough people unaware or apathetic while doing it. The next will be just as bad.

🚨BREAKING: A day before early voting begins in Virginia’s redistricting referendum, Barack Obama called on Virginians to vote in favor of a state constitutional amendment allowing the legislature to redraw its congressional map to counter GOP gerrymanders. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Rob Wittman sure is sending a shitton of emails lately. Must be panicking and trying to look useful.

Some days I think the discover feed is trolling me. It looks at accounts I have muted or blocked and adds more of those.

🚨BREAKING: Virginia voters will head to the polls starting Friday to weigh in on a plan to redraw the state’s congressional map in response to GOP gerrymanders in other states after a court ruled* that election preparations can move forward. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Workshopping two new cocktails after making sesame syrup from tropical-cocktails.com. 1. The Open Sesamai-Tai. Is this just too obvious? I have never seen it. Swap orgeat for sesame syrup. 2. Thai sour. Sesame, ginger, lemon. Working on liquor. Melhong and battavia-arrack next and feel right.

Can Trump cancel the election in all 50 states and DC? No. Can he even rig the rules for state run elections? Also no. Is it seriously alarming that the thought is on his mind? And that the media and the Dems don’t seem to think this is a big priority? Yes.

Ardent Craft Ales Defenestrator Doppelbock from right here in Richmond, Va. I learned the word defenestration from a d&d campaign in the mid 90s. #BeerSky
