😂 I thought sensible people left Twitter long ago, when the Nazis came storming in. Besides, when was it a requirement that someone post on any form of social media?

Always thought Carrington was a pain in the a$$ when the Lynx played her team. Now that she's ours, I'm happy to have her bother everybody else. 💙💚

Horrific. mRNA vaccines have saved millions of lives and could save millions more.

“I don’t think I’ve seen a more dangerous decision in public health in my 50 years in the business,” said Mike Osterholm, a UMN expert on infectious diseases & pandemic preparations.

I've long thought Trump and Putin have talked much more often than has ever been revealed. Friends think I'm crazy. I tell them two things can be true at the same time.

This is such a sad day. The network of Edward R. Murrow was sold to a company with no apparent plan to run a serious news division. An "ombudsman" reporting to the president? Just call it what it is - voluntary prior restraint, capitulation to a thin-skinned tyrant. I'm glad I retired when I did. 😢

CBS, NBC, ABC, the Associated Press have free websites. I believe the networks offer videos of their evening newscasts on their plus lots of stories and videos. Local TV and radio stations often have websites with local news. CNN still has much of its stuff free but has added a paywall.

Grasping at straws.

They will try to tell you, “Resistance is futile.” It is never so.

He won, FFS! How can he claim damages from her interview if he won?!

So sad. If you haven't already heard it or even if you have, find "Take on me" unplugged on YouTube. It showcases his wonderful voice and will give you a new appreciation of a great song.

Kristi Noem in Feb 2024: If Biden federalizes the National Guard [to handle border issues], we’ve got a war on our hands.”l

Kristi Noem in 2025 as DHS Secretary: …federalizing the National Guard.

Two babies have died from whooping cough in Kentucky. Neither they nor their parents had been vaccinated.

The current whooping cough outbreak in the U.S. hasn’t grabbed the media spotlight as much as measles has, but it’s important to update your vaccination if you’re going to be around babies.

The rhetoric of the 🤡 and his followers is disturbingly bloodthirsty, full of executions and military tribunals followed, of course, by more executions. It's not anywhere near normal.

Folks,

Please don’t lose sight of the fact that the President is supposed to serve the American people.

Not his pockets and his ego.

We’re so deep in the mire that we’re losing even the memory of normal.

Peanut farm, people.
Peanut farm.

My husband and I were just saying the same about our Timberwolves. 😒

Same.🩷

A Friendly Reminder.

Hey, How Come Young Men Are Getting Religion All Of A Sudden? Oh, I Think We Know! Young men are desperate to bring the patriarchy back and women ... are not.

“It’s not rocket science. Nothing makes people more conservative (and thus religious) than having a group of people to hate based on their immutable characteristics.”

Andry José Hernández Romero, as a teen, sewing costumes for his town’s Three Kings Fest.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 65 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo* of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Good question!

Does he think she's an MD doctor? Doesn't know she's a PhD kind of doctor?

I doubt I'm the only one who feels sick hearing his praise of the man who ordered the butchering of a journalist.
In his speech, Trump asked MBS how he sleeps at night, but he meant it as a compliment.
I have actually wondered the same about both of them.

I was hoping, too, but I read an interview with the actress today, and she talked about how much she would miss the show. 😒

Same - a day later.
Can't believe they killed Lala.

I thought this was obvious from the jump. Also, entities investigating Musk were popular doggy targets. And the main goal is always tax cuts for people who could well afford to pay them.

I watched the whole speech (I'm a nerd from mn and like Walz). The Republicans did stand/clap for some things. They feel they were run over when Dems had the trifecta in recent years. Didn't clap for school meals, did clap for efforts to fight fraud/abuse. It's like a very polite little SOTU.

I understand they feel the need for a distraction, but this is really digging deep, but I suppose they could go deeper. How about MLK or JFK? Pearl Harbor? What a collection of weirdos.

Yeah, I was so pissed I had to say something. Since I was home alone I just put it out into the atmosphere. I'm so tired of the "move fast and break things" approach by these weird rich guys. Fine, do that with your company - but people depend on the government. Or they did. 💙😱
