Hey Jane, tell Ken that Donavon sends his regards.

If you’re going to be at Whipple this morning, please make sure that you are safe. ICE does not distinguish between demonstrators, observers, press, or bystanders — or as they call them all, “domestic terrorists.”

Rest now, brother. We have the watch. We’ll see you in Valhalla.

Day 585: I hope you didn’t think I stopped doing this.

You have just been visited by Somali Paul Bunyan. In order to receive his blessing, you must share this with your friends and type “Thank you Somali Paul Bunyan for discovering Minnesota!”

The President’s comments about our Somali neighbors are of course vile and racist, and federal authorities targeting even citizens shows exactly what they’re trying to do: sow fear and hate. #mnleg

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

This is straight up vile. There is NO group against whom bigotry is tolerated in the DFL, yet this Green Party turd would like the DFL to make a special exception for transphobia. Get bent, Terry.

Are people talking about Orc City here too?

Eid Mubarak, my friends. I ate so many lamb chops tonight, I was asked to please try sample some of the other delicate cuts of meat, to which I said, "ok thanks for the advice," and then ate another lamb chop.

lmao it's now against twitter rules to tell nazis to follow your leader.

The legislature had an agreement on the budget process, agreed upon by Republicans and Democrats. This violates that agreement. You don’t throw in last minute demands like this because you’re serious about negotiating.

Rep Rarick said she wanted to exchange offers publicly, so here it is. Republicans are holding our Higher Ed budget - and the 226K students who depend on it - hostage over a process issue. We have a bipartisan agreement that we could pass right now if Republicans give up on this bullshit. #mnleg

Average X user.

One of the silliest things about America’s neo-fascist project is that we’re just outsourcing everything from our concentration camps to our state-run media to the absolute dumbest people imaginable.

Update on the outside cat: it’s been one year and one day since this idiot escaped, and she still is living in my backyard. All my various traps serve to do is eliminate her competition from other cats, possums, raccoons, and one time, a bird. I will never give up, but goddamn bitch, help me out.

Every year I plan on cutting down this half-dead piece of shit evergreen outside my front door, and every year some motherfucking bird decides to fuck it up with their stupid nest. Next time, you bitch ass dinosaurs. Next time.

The Six Year Old came to me with an ingenious business plan, and I enthusiastically supported it, so I told her that she needs to inform her mother. Three minutes later my wife is hollering "NO GRIFTS, SEND IN YOUR FATHER."

Getting quote tweeted by Junlper across platforms, what a time to be alive.

The problem with Bluesky is you’ll never achieve this level of content on this app.

Thank you SD51. 💙 We may have come up short yesterday, but this was a campaign of ideas, not people, and I believe these ideas will take hold in CD3. I want to thank all of my supporters for coming out for the election, my wife Dani for her support, and Cheryl Poling for running a solid campaign.

Day 308: she was gone for three days, which made me think she had finally dropped the baby weight if you know what I mean, but looks like fatass is still out and about with child. Bonus: in person photo!

Headed out for parent-teacher conferences tonight, and had an eerily similar conversation with the kids.

The wretched outside cat is extremely pregnant, which is bad because I'm going to have to deal with kittens like any day now, but very good because that means she's going to have a single place where she's holding up with her dumb babies and I'll finally be able to capture her. Ugh. And her babies.

Day 298: The goddamn cat finally went into the trap. Please watch this video in its entirety so you too can relish in my victory.

Big announcement coming. Pic unrelated.

Day 294: We have established that Babby never comes out when it's below -5°F, but she always returns. We also know that she'll rest in the house when we leave the door open, but never stays. Conclusion: She is fed by us, but sleeping somewhere else, probably somewhere heated. BITCH HAS A FLOP HOUSE.

Don’t mind me, just answering my fan mail.

On Twitter, this exact post is flooded by blue checks saying “good riddance,” and “why not post the seminar on X,” etc. Scammers tend to target people who don’t know how to set up a printer. There’s no way they are downloading a random PPT deck to inform them on what a gift card scam looks like.

Still having a blast on X Dot Com.

Beat this game 27 years ago, gonna take another crack at it to see if I still got what it takes.

Great Clown Pagliacci goes to doctor. Says he's depressed that Republicans have majority in state house. Doctor says, “Treatment is simple. David Gottfried is running for MN House 40B, he will break GOP majority.” Man bursts into tears. Says, “But doctor… I am David Gottfried.”

Sent the little one to school with bespoke valentines in tiny little envelopes on which she wrote personal messages to each of her classmates, and she came back with a truckload of fucking lego sets and candy buckets and shit. Brother, what the fuck are we even doing here?

Me, a DFLer, who has been keeping abreast of the news in Minnesota and has been solemnly mulling over my options, but have not made any decisions yet.

I am excited to engage in conversations with my family, friends, and neighbors about the future of the Senate seat and DFL party in Minnesota.

I wanted you to hear directly from me that I have decided not to run for reelection to the Senate in 2026. I have loved my job, and after 20 years of hard and rewarding work in the public sector, I'm ready to spend more time with my family. I want to take some time here to explain my decision (🧵)

Angie Craig wouldn’t be Minnesota’s first Pro-Choice Republican senator, but she’d be the first nominated by the DFL.

My heart is so full from the outpouring of support from my community, old friends, new friends, political folks, non-political folks, and especially state leaders I adore who have bravely paved the path forward for the good of everyone in Minnesota. I promise to work hard and make you all proud.

Hard boiled eggs at the 7-11 are still $1.29 so there's that.

Still thinking about how my stupid outside cat ran away for nine months, and she still somehow outlived my stupid inside cat, who she hated. It's like, come home babby, you won.

Bad news.

Twitter may have suspended me for telling the Libertarian Party of Minnesota to commit selficide, but not before I got the results back from this most important poll.

Finally, I’m free.

Valentines Day is almost 2 weeks away, and you can easily find my address by googling "donavon indovino cawley bloomington", just in case you were wondering. www.ebay.com/itm/17681085...

I pulled the trim off around the sliding glass door last night to realign the track, but I haven't gotten around to nailing it back in, so the door's just sitting there balancing in the frame. Outside cat just decided to put her paws on the door, and sent the whole fucking thing crashing down. 😱

Day 264: That damn cat’s food bowl keeps freezing solid before she could get to it lately, so I’ve been leaving the back door open a crack and leaving the food inside for her. Oh she’s been going in alright, and then also sleeping the entire night on my couch before booking it when the sun comes up.
