User @backintimeag: The text “Kirsten will be happy when ICE gets the fuck out of Minnesota” over a picture of 1850s immigrant and Minnesota-dwelling doll character Kirsten Larson in the snow.

In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram

It has the same energy as finishing a euthanasia at work and then walking in to a new puppy appointment. Just flip the switch and act like things are normal.

The absolute emotional whiplash of reading about state-sanctioned murder and the resulting civilian resistance efforts, and then turning around and playing Animal Crossing with your 8 year old because they got a snow day today… Parenting is a real journey right now.

Damn proud of Minnesota.

Merry Christmas to the cutest little chi! I hope he’s feeling better 💛

It’s 60°+ in the Midwest, which is practically tropical in late December for us. I love snow and cold, so I don’t suffer from wintertime depression stuff, but lately instead I have this like… existential dread over warm winters and climate change?? And I think maybe that’s almost worse

Throw back to when the (now defunct) DA mobile game ‘Heroes of Thedas’ made Blackwall canonically Santa

My response to anything over the next two weeks

Was clocked by another queer person at a conference this weekend and the reason I set off their radar was that my earring collection is too fun for a straight person. Might be the best compliment I’ve ever gotten TBH.

In honor of spooky month, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand

I'll go first: Six page commercial lease.

Getting on a flight today in These Trying Times™️ and honestly it’s not as bad as I thought. Honestly the worst part of the security line was restraining myself from petting the working K9s. How will they know they’re Very Good Dogs if I can’t give them scritches? 🥺

Just saw a reel where a fellow elder millennial was talking about “cheugy” things she unabashedly likes, and my first reaction was “girl, nobody says ‘cheugy’ anymore,” which is so meta and hilarious if you think about it

Jonathan Joss, known for King of the Hill and Parks and Rec also played Robert Rainwater in Cyberpunk 2077. He was a great actor and my heart goes out to his family and partner. May homophobes rot and burn.

Also, this exercise taught me that I hate drawing animals. Respect to the furry artists out there, bc this shit’s hard as hell.

Me, create art and a fully fleshed out backstory for a PC in a game that won’t even come out until next year at best? Don’t be ridiculous.

(I’m already obsessed, like this game looks SO GOOD, holy shit)

Very cool and not at all concerning that we now have precedent for states deciding to undermine federal drug regulations without any oversight from medical professionals! I love it here! 🥰

Art.

What a sweet little chi! 💛 Mine love romaine hearts too. That and carrots are their faves. Pretty sure it’s the cronch.

In my head? Only as much as she needed to in order to avoid a diplomatic crisis.

In game, though? I will shamelessly make her kiss all kinds of Orlesian ass if it means I can avoid that fucking Florianne boss fight, because goddamn, those harlequins are the WORST.

But I did it today, because it is cute tho 💁🏻‍♀️

YES! People are always asking why I don’t wear it natural more often, and it’s because I don’t wanna work up a sweat scrunching and plopping and diffusing and then coaxing the ones who aren’t being team players into something resembling a curl. I could be doing literally anything else with my time.
