Minneapolis has an amazing park system. Our master plan called for a park within 6 blocks of every house. 2 blocks to my local tennis court, wading pool, ball fields. 6 blocks to a 30 foot waterfall. 6 blocks to good trails along the Mississippi River gorge. Off leash dog parks! Lakes and beaches!

Ha!
A friend I haven't seen in years, and whose politics I wasn't aware of, posted today that all Democrats are violent and murderous and we should unfriend him. And I wondered what news he was reading.
And unfriended him 🙂

Oh I'm so sorry. Grief is so hard right now. I know mine is compounded by {wave hands at everything}

People were driving very aggressive on the freeways today. Stupid aggressive. It was noticeably different

Elon's whining is recent

Oh, so now you're calling him a Nazi?

Just bc he's an apartheid authoritarian who just gave 2 Nazi salutes after platforming antisemites and endorsing the AfD Nazis in Germany?

So much for the 'tolerant left.'

Walz recently said on stage, at one of the town halls he's holding, that he follows Tesla stock on an app on his phone, and enjoys watching it tank. Elon is very upset about this, and whined in a Fox interview about what a mean jerk he thinks Walz is.

Trump and republicans pleading with everyday Americans to help save Elon’s fortune while he’s actively dismantling programs for the working poor, middle class, veterans and the elderly is absolutely fucking vile.

Very pretty!

Red, short furred Basenji dog, lying on the back of a couch, in front of a window. Blue sky and snow outside.

This little dog tosses her food around. If a piece goes under the couch, she *needs* that piece. Even if her bowl is full. I've been under these recliners with a flashlight several times recently, helping her find her food.

legit lol at this

Ah. We have required the local Girl Scouts to do the math, and make change, and sell us many boxes of goodness. 😋

This shit doesn’t happen in France and I’ll tell you why: the rich went too far once and they cut all their heads off and now, when those in power fuck workers over, the French stop working. Don’t forget your real power Americans. They don’t let you have unions for a reason.

Musk standing in Oval Office, Trump sitting at the Resolute Desk. Musk says "Go ahead, tell them your name." Trump says "My name is Reek."

Just saw a farmer say, "you don't have to admit you were wrong, you have to admit you were lied to, " and idk that seems like a good framing to call people in

Spouse set up our living room ceiling fan on Home. So now, if I say "OK Google, I'm hot." It says "Ooh, yes you are hot. Let's cool you down." And turns on the ceiling fan. 🤣

And it's all a distraction from the coup in our agencies

So we have had no hull loss airliner crashes in America from 2009 until yesterday. But DEI was the cause of the crash yesterday???

Based on that logic, I guess DEI was responsible for the safest period of civil aviation in US history.

A four panel image, the top panel being a picture of Bishop Marianne Budde, and the next three panels being a discussion between two characters from the Netflix adaptation of good omens, Aziraphale and Crowley, captioned as: "What was it she said that got everyone so upset?" "'Be kind to each other.'" "Oh, yeah. That'll do it."

Ignore the haters, do good anyway.

Spot the difference

Picture of houses burning. People holding hands, hugging. Text: "Everything is on fire, but everyone I love is doing beautiful things, and trying to make life worth living, and I know I don't have to believe in everything, but I believe in that." Written by Nikita Gill. Cartoon by The Oatmeal

Some good news. Democracy Docket is a good team to support.

A pretty for this morning

Love the murderbot series!

I just saw a coyote. Minneapolis, 2pm

Oh what fun!

And Jayne's hat: "I'll be in my bunk!"

Large artificial tree with lights, pearl strands, pink sparkly balls, hearts, and various fictional characters ornaments, like Queen of Hearts, Groot, and the Tardis.

Have switched from Christmas tree to Valentine's tree. The lights don't photo well. They're red, pink, and white. Deadpool as a topper, because it's a love story. 😀
