Never use the R-word! Is that so hard? I am filled with loathing. He is so jealous of Gov Walz. He resorts to the lowest form of name calling. I wish him nothing nice. Nothing ever again.

Somehow this was at my house. Probably for the kiddo. They did not want it I went for it. Boy pop rocks are a blast from the past for me.

I have recently lost most access to tv apps on my iPad. Apparently I haven’t broken it fast enough so now it is no longer getting Apple updates. Most of the tv/video apps require a more recent update than I can get. It is BS.

Ice is gassing neighbors in St. Paul this morning g during a paramilitary fascist raid on the city.

Oysters from the shrimp truck and homemade rémoulade. It’s all happening. Po’ boys for dinner. Pictures to come.

Blue Tigger? I don’t sound very serious. 🤷🏻‍♀️

We made risotto with purchased but wild chanterelles and foraged black trumpet mushrooms.

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

Not be a joiner, but look at it! So cool.

Hear me out. Charlie Brown vs. Lucy Democrats vs. Republicans Bert vs. Ernie The football changes but it’s always rigged.

New game just dropped. What was #19 before it was struck from the record?

This is excellent. Also, in case anyone missed it, I literally mention how hard it is to fight on an empty stomach in my bio here. This is what the administration is counting on. Everyone who is not rich, in too much need to argue.

This is horrible. None of these people should have anything good happen for them ever again. I hope they go very hungry in their lifetimes. I am disgusted.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

While I get why this is true during normal operating procedures, the times are not normal. SNAP recipients getting no money have what options? It’s not like they can pay regular price with no funds. I hate the cruelty.

I just made @lollardfish.bsky.social cooler for our child. I pointed out that his profile pic is Fuzzy. You’re welcome!

Starting a war with Venezuela while your own citizens starve is a move. A really, really bad move. Is this admin written by Terry Gilliam? Did I miss the memo about volunteering to be on Monty Python the reboot?

This is just so awful. What are kids who started hormones supposed to do? Oh wait! I know this answer. The cruelty is the point.

Marjorie Johnson has passed away and this timeline is crap. She won literally hundreds of state fair ribbons for her baking. May she find a wonderful kitchen to haunt. www.startribune.com/marjorie-joh...

Capitalism is hot garbage. How much do you think they are paying to do this? I wonder what else you could do with money?

I have been trying to figure out how to say the right thing about the connection between health care costs and SNAP benefits. Because we refuse to let them make the cost of insurance skyrocket, they are *blackmailing* us by withholding paychecks and food. When is the general strike?

IQ tests are bullshit. Using them to try to prove superiority? Double bullshit.

This is one of many points about who uses SNAP. Even working more than full time only goes so far when it’s so far below a living wage.

Anyone know? I drive past it all the time but have no clue about its status.

If you appreciate me getting up early every weekend to bring you the newsiest clips from the Sunday shows, please support what I do by signing up for my newsletter. I think you'll enjoy Public Notice and paid subscribers make my work possible. Thanks.

Do not let them lie unchecked. Cutting a trillion dollars only makes life harder for millions who rely on Medicaid.

Is he speaking about someone official? Like it looks like he’s speaking to the interpreter or the Pres. of Argentina. WTF Could he be more inappropriate?!

David is one of the new contributing columnists at the Strib. I am very proud of him and excited for his future pieces.

I have had a long day. On my drive home I was stuck behind people going 35-40 in a 60. I have discovered that “mother f@cker” scans perfectly in the place of Rubber Ducky. Please use this information responsibly.

There is a very specific niche this hits. I can even hear it in my head. Lol.

I had a skin thing biopsied and it came back with fancy words that mean Traumatized Mole (dibs on band name). My darling husband because I did not give enough context thought I was rescuing another small animal. So on brand for me. 🤣

It’s unfair that it’s so hot and yet the juncos are in my yard. We’re going straight from summer to snow at this rate. #Minnesota

For funsies and to escape from reality, I have started rewatching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Still great. Plus stabbing the bad guys looks fun. :)

COVER REVEAL AND PREORDER: The Public Scholar - A Practical Handbook. "Perry focuses on the practical details of how to approach public scholarship. How do you pitch a piece to an editor? When should you follow or ignore the rules of the genre? And what happens once your piece is out in the world?"

Look folks. I know I seem to have my act together with regards to kitchen stuff. But I am here to tell you, I failed at hollandaise. I got my infusion for my Crohn’s and I am wiped out and off. So, I offer you this moment of truth. Tonight I did not cook well. The mushrooms were still great.:)

I found three clumps when I was not looking for them at all. Then I grabbed one and ran to the car yelling at @adamstemple.bsky.social Get in The Car! It was fun, if not well thought out. :)

Tonight I made avgolemono soup. I have never really had it. But @lollardfish.bsky.social loves lemons and was teh sick last week. So I bought the things to do it. Of course, with one parent down and an extra child it did not get made. So today!

I have a list. Buffy, ER, Northern Exposure, West Wing(started 99), Sports Night. I have watched parts or all of these in the past couple years.

I feel like this should follow the Tom Holland Lip Sync rule. Always repost. It just makes you feel happier mid-fall.

Started this today with a bunch of cool folks. Super excited to dig in and learn. I am ready to develop a superpower around change making. :)

My kid informed me of this Kimmel issue. And I just had to explain the evolution of his from The Man Show to this. This is ludicrous. How is this my country?!

I feel like I ended up on the wrong list somewhere. Why am I getting text messages from Charlie’s widow? I hold no beliefs that overlapped. Unless he at some point said water was wet. Yuck.

Do Fox News hosts and commentators agree with their colleague Brian Kilmeade that the United States should "just kill" homeless people? He still has a job. No apology. No retraction. Just let us know, Fox.

It is unacceptable to be a big tent if we don’t actually cover everyone who comes to us. We must do better at supporting our trans friends.

This is so chilling. A student reports the prof who they disagree with, and the school cuts the dean and department head and the prof? All I can think is this is just like Germany. The kid snitches and the adults get swatted. Disgusting. Higher Ed is in real trouble there.

Note from the GBBO season premiere. So happy it’s back. The show stopper was supposed to be a landscape. Some cakes had decorations but not land shaped. I am reminded of the time I ordered a cake shaped like Minnehaha Falls, because our friend wanted a Minnehaha cake. This was what was meant:

Farmers market dinner was delicious! I made stuffed patty pan squash blossoms. We had fresh sweet corn and sautéed chard. So good.

I would invest in cheese people. And cheese making. And eating cheese! Maybe a touring company where I get to talk about cheese around the world. Also fight fascists. What if the good guys had funding?
