Encrypted Form CryptPad: end-to-end encrypted collaboration suite

Do you have a suspicious hot dish recipe?
Do you want to help me a community sourced cookbook that will raise funds for MIRAC and Sanctuary Supply Depot?

I made a form. You can submit a recipe here.

The media can piss off with the wine mom BS. It's just derisive misogyny wearing yet another label. Women are carrying the bulk of support work like they've always done - supply chains, communication, organization. That invisible labor that happens on the daily. Show some goddamned respect.

26th and nicollet in minneapolis is closed to vehicle traffic now as brass solidarity performs

YouTube video by Derek Lee Miller A Minneapolis Explainer for the Folks Back Home

A friend of mine has some thoughts for the folks back in his rural hometown that I think a lot of people could stand to hear. youtu.be/uhV55fiJwNo

The use of passive voice in this gem of a paragraph is doing a lot of heavy lifting in this article:

“It’s completely unfair to the agents who have been put in this position,” he added. “There’s only so much they can handle before bad things start to happen.”

A mile from my house.

"The DFLer in 47A is unopposed, can't I skip?"/ "64A is a super blue district, do I really need to worry about this one?"

GO VOTE OUT OF SPITE.

GO VOTE TO SHOW THAT OUR STATE VOTES NO MATTER WHAT.

Special Elections 2026: MN House 64A (& 47A) If you arrived at my blog and are looking for posts about responding to the current occupation of Minnesota by ICE, you can find my How To Help If You’re In Minnesota essay HERE, and my How T…

HEY PEOPLE IN 64A and 47A YOU HAVE A SPECIAL ELECTION TOMORROW.

LOL

And that fascist fashion sense.

Thank you from Minneapolis.

LOL.

LOL.

A woman’s hand with silver rings and deep red nail polish.

My daughter called me up and said,”I can’t make the world not be on fire, but if you come over, I’ll paint your nails, and it’ll be something to make you smile.” So I did and she did. It helped to be with her for a while. And my hands look pretty good for a 65-year-old woman.

Aside from everything else, that’s really epic picture.

What fun to be able to say we stand up better against government overreach than Texas does.

The violence and chaos from the federal government that has the Twin Cities under siege is an effort, it seems, to trigger the legal ability to neutralize the Constitution nationally.

The only thing holding it off is Minnesotans adamantly refusing to step over the line.

I’ve never seen it. But a friend of mine here in Minneapolis posted this, which hit me in all the feels and no I really do want to see it. bsky.app/profile/wind...

Car display that reads “Ice possible. Drive with car.”

Tell me about it.

I am here at church, and one of my neighbors showed up in a Norwegian patterned wool sweater and polka-dotted pajama pants, and I am HERE for that fashion choice.

I want a brownie to come do my dishes.

I have a bad feeling the 8th Circuit is going to lead to the government murdering more brave patriots in Minneapolis and it's just reminding me that a political solution to the judge problem will be harder to execute.

I drove by that corner every time I went to work. And also by the site of Renee Good’s murder. My workplace is less than a mile away (I retired this month).

Well, I’ve had my first ugly-cry of the day, and it isn’t even 7:30 am. I’ve been awake since 4:10 am.
