Here's another thing that gets me:

"When Bamigboye spotted the unmarked Explorer, he allegedly pulled a mask over his face and got out of the Jeep."

In Minnesota, GAITERS ARE FUNCTIONAL, you morons! It's not an act of aggression to stay warm. Fuckers.

ALSO: Minnesota suffered a horrible loss last spring when a man PRETENDING TO BE A POLICE OFFICER murdered and gravely injured two politicians and their spouses.

This is so FUCKED UP!

If the dispatcher cannot confirm that you are being pulled over by a police officer, stay on the line with the dispatcher, and ask for police assistance. Drive carefully to a safe place, such as a local police department.

FBI: Man, woman drive to police station with Homeland Security agent trapped in vehicle A man and a woman are facing charges of assaulting a federal officer after Homeland Security Investigations agents tried to arrest the man Wednesday for overstaying his student visa. The pair drove to...

- They immediately called 911 and drove to the New Hope Police station.

This is what we're told to do, as women, if we think we're being pulled over by a fake officer.

This was the moment that’s the turning point away from a post Watergate accountable presidency to Republicans knowing that if they controlled the courts, they could do anything and there would be no consequences.

But we had two chances to fix it.

The Monsters of Christmas Many of the ancient pagan observances during midwinter have been transformed or forgotten by our modern society. If you look into the origins of traditions...

thinking about all the cool winter monsters of folklore that just casually got swallowed into christmas. zombie horses, intestine eating witches, madness gnomes and so on www.atlasobscura.com/articles/mon...

Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content More than 50 organisations report sites being restricted or removed, with abortion hotlines blocked and posts showing non-explicit nudity triggering warnings

There is going to be a full-court press by these social media companies to throw all of their support to the Far Right.

By the way, BlueSky is GREAT! www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

After a 57 degree swing? Absolutely! 😄

Well. Breaking out the bikini for Tuesday!

Literally everything in the past year makes me never want to be wealthy. Seems to rot the brain (and soul)

Fandazzi made our own Yule Log video a few years ago! This is the wall of flame we jump through at the end of each performance day:

Imagine serving as a Marine and then having a distinguished career in the FBI investigating actual terrorist threats and then having to go in front of Congress and say you’re afraid of Antifa. Absolutely humiliating.

Republicans will say they can’t help you afford health insurance because of the national debt, then turn around and spend all your tax money on anything and everything EXCEPT health care

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported?

NOEM: We haven't deported veterans

MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

Hang on, gotta get a cloth and dry this dude's flopsweat off my computer screen.

Screenshot of the section that reads: according to your word.” Mary’s decision forever altered the course of humanity. Nine months later, God became man when Mary gave birth to a son, Jesus, who would go on to offer his life on the Cross for the redemption of sins and the salvation of the world. With this part highlighted: Nine months later, God became man

So... they're saying birth is when human life begins. Got it!

When the winner of the Nobel peace prize smuggled herself over the water and out of Venezuela to attend the ceremony in Oslo this week, her allies called the Pentagon to ask them not to arbitrarily murder her. www.wsj.com/world/americ...

stuff like this reminds me of how frustrating it is that the lesson some people took from the george floyd uprising was that minneapolis is some horrible racist place, instead of seeing that minneapolis is also a place where people stand up and do something when shit goes down

American culture suppresses expressions of grief and loss and encourages us to compartmentalize those very real, painful aspects of our lives when, more than anything, our grief communicates the greatness of our capacity to love.

💞 Sad in community is healthy. Thank you for sharing your love and your hurt with us.

I'm sorry, on what authority??

I can’t believe these people are still charge.

We suck at being citizens.

I've been shouting this from the rooftops. She and Walz started with "they're weird, and liberal values are neighborly and compassionate." HUGE energy, people loved it. Then they pivoted to racking up Republican endorsements and you could feel the balloon deflate.

Currently in a meeting knowing that when it ends I will be heating up some damn fine soup for lunch.

Glad to see this article being honest about what a lying piece of crap he is

Other perks being:
- Winter is beautiful
- Winter keeps away most venomous baddies
- Winter encourages us to complete outdoor projects in the summer
- We get the full death/rebirth cycle every year, which keeps us grounded

Two hour late start for the kids this morning! These are the perks we get for living here.
