This is absolutely worth the read.

I don't know when exactly I started feeling like there was some fight left in our tank, but I've been noticing it for a few weeks now.

I'm glad somebody else sees and feels it too.

Honestly really bummed to hear about The Leonardo closing in SLC. I know that building was way past its lifespan, but damn that museum was cool. Big loss for Utah's museum community.

I don't understand the "activist judges" claim in re: Prop 4 and #utpol - the GOP has had full authority to nominate and confirm every single judge in the fucking state - how is this some 'liberal conspiracy'?

Mike Lee Can’t Stop Throwing Social Media Grenades. His Church Isn’t Happy. The Utah senator’s online persona has further damaged his already frayed relationship with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

This one is required reading for all of my #utpol and #utdem folks.

This fissure has been growing for years and is what I think primarily motivates the shift in Davis and Utah counties.

I don’t know who needs to hear this today, but:

Ballot measures are almost certainly going to be the only way (outside of redistricting!) that Utah can harness some of its natural progressive populism to the point of a party power shift.

Saw @nateforutah.bsky.social on KSL earlier.

I'm very glad somebody said that the current problem isn't a both sides problem out loud. Many thanks πŸ™

Apparently getting called out for thinking the disability caucus should be renamed is equal to a personal attack now?

I don't think I've ever seen my wife in more pain than during her IUD insertion appointment.

It's about time they did something here.

I really think Americans are just gonna call him β€œPope Bob” for the foreseeable future.

Leo is gonna be the equivalent of like his β€œVatican government name” or something.

It's official! I am pleased to announce that I have been promoted to the rank of (full) Professor!

Thanks to all my family, colleagues, friends, and especially the 3,700+ students I have taught these past 13 years.

I feel blessed to have found my calling in life and appreciate your support.

I think you’re more likely to get HD 8 than 9 imo, as is.

Especially with no Steve Waldrip now and having Jason Kyle instead.

Since 2011 or so, Hungary has been what is known as a β€œhybrid regime”—not a totalitarian dictatorship, but not a real democracy, either. Is the same thing happening in the U.S.?
