The little garden yard sign is working, more flurries!

I enjoyed the first volume of Stranger Things season 5, took a minute for me to get into it, but damn I'm into it 🧙‍♀️✨

Another thing, paying graduate students peanuts to grade work, then suspending them for doing that work justifies massive, disruptive protest.

I think the snow stopped. Aww Lol. But it still counts!

We've got a light, beautiful snow coming down this morning. First snow in the broadmoor/Cheyenne mountain area! ❄️

I'm looking at winter coats for my dogs and the options are adorable and belly laugh! inducing 😄

I'd dare to say there is nothing Texas Longhorns love more than beating the Aggies. 😄 Nothing, y'all. In particular in football. But I've been hyped at a tennis match before too, lol.

I blew through The Paris Wife, even returning it to the library early! Booksky post. It's a historical fiction novel about Hadley Richardson, the first wife of author Ernest Hemingway. Absolutely enjoyed it. It chronicles their marriage during the 1920s in Paris.

Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent. She didn't want to deploy to D.C. "She hated it. She cried about it." But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it. May she rest in peace. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Nice weather today, y'all. It was a high of 45 deg F with LOTS of sun.

My 2.5yo gave me a fright this morning. He was hollering. I walk into his room and he's in his crib with blood ALL OVER his face, shirt, hands/arms. 😱 Too much blood to clean with wipes, so to the bath we went.. He was OK! It was a nose bleed. But wow, man.

There are no words to describe what a loss this is to us, to Colorado, and to the country. Faith was a giant among those of us lucky enough to know her and work with her. May her memory be a blessing.

There is beauty everywhere but especially in autumn in Philadelphia! 😻

We're finally getting some rain in Colorado Springs! 💗

I went out for the Stupid Little Walk For My Stupid Mental Health, in the bright sunshine and cold wind, and it was most invigorating and pleasant and a good idea, yes. Well done me. Also I bought snacks on the way home.

1) it's surprising bc we didn't even ask anymore, and 2) I guess at some point a little human understands the concept of being on a team 💗

After 2 years of my child refusing to wear his soccer shots shirt to soccer.. today he walked out of his room wearing it proudly. 😊

Feels good to be working again but man this week was a whirlwind

Wow. WHAT?

I went outside in shorts and my winter jacket and it feels amazing out there 🌌

It wasn't enough that Trump, on his first day in office, pardoned violent insurrectionists who stormed the US Capitol on January 6. He's now at it again—pardoning one of those same insurrectionists for TWO federal gun offenses.

Durango father, two kids, ask to return to Colombia after being picked up by ICE on their way to school

Internet news is a little hard to keep up with when you go to work during the day, lol

Used to stay until close at bars, now stay until close at the rat-themed kid casino 🙌

Colorado has made progress on gun laws to keep communities safe. But there’s still more work to do — including passing an assault weapons ban. When I’m elected Attorney General, I’ll work with our legislature to get it done. coloradosun.com/2025/10/29/c...

Tried to get the pups to pose earlier, lol. Gave them both a bath yesterday. This is Malla and Chewy 🐕🐕✨

It's a gorgeous day. ✨

I really like Pope Leo XIV

Bless The American Bishops speaking out against ICE.

Just seen a dog with his parents do a bouncy bound and then look up at the them adoringly and my heart just did a surge like a joy defibrillator.

We also have a political party actively banning books and gutting educational institutions at every level. So…

Colorado should aim to add 40,000 “attainable” owner-occupied homes and decrease costs for 100,000 renters by 2035, Attorney General Phil Weiser said Thursday as his campaign for governor rolled out a housing platform he said would cater to the needs of all Coloradans.

One thing I learned writing this piece: ~1 in 8 Americans are on SNAP. Way more than I thought (and I grew up lower middle class and we had WIC when I was a kid, so think I had an above-replacement-level prior). “We saved SNAP” is good angle for Dems open.substack.com/pub/gelliott...

Democrats should be running ads every day from now until November 2028 about how Trump sued to prevent SNAP checks from going out.

This is academic censorship, full stop.

Administratively, they‘ll regret that requirement

Back to work tomorrow. Not sure what emoji to use, lol. I'm gonna miss my dog, y'all.. Anyway, I hope it's a good day all around. Here we go -> 😎🌌

Out walking with my pup, maybe last afternoon weekday walk for a while. ✌️ Hi deer family :)

It is incredible — the blind spots you develop when you’ve never, ever been poor.

I'm thinking today of all my fellow veterans but especially the more than 5,000 trans service members and their families who were kicked out of the military this year despite being highly qualified and serving honorably. This injustice will be a stain on our nation's history.

I volunteered with Jolt back in 2018. Block walked for Beto and other candidates with them. It's no surprise KP is going after an organization that aims to increase civic engagement among young Latinos in Texas. This is the same guy that had the houses of LULAC Abuelitas' raided.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate passes bill to end the now-41-day government shutdown, sending it to the House for a final vote this week.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide. Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

31 today

Today is why sometimes I say "good morning to everyone but moderates!"

My pup Malla at the end of the bedtime routine, resting on the kiddo's couch, taking in the projector's northern lights vibe lol

NEW: Colorado Sens Bennet (D) and Hickenlooper (D) oppose the plan to reopen the government without a deal to extend healthcare subsidies. #copolitics
